PLACE OF INSTALLATION, POSITIONING AND FIRE-PREVENTION SAFETY

5.3.1. FIRE PREVENTION REQUIREMENTS

▪ The place of installation must not be at specific risk of fire or used as a warehouse for
combustible material.
▪ The storage of solid fuel for a maximum volume of 1.5 m
the unit is installed, respecting the safety distances from the heating unit.

5.3.2. CHECK OF SUITABILITY OF THE UNIT TO BE INSTALLED

▪ The unit's technical specifications must be analyzed, viewing the product data sheet, to
check its compatibility with the energy requirements of the room(s) served and coexistence
with other units.
▪ Make sure the room meets the requirements and characteristics of current standards
(the volume must not be less than "Min. room volume [m3] = 10 x Reduced output kW"
ref. UNI10683). At least the amount of air required for regular combustion must enter
the room. Therefore the walls of the room must have openings which meet the following
requirements:
» a free section of at least 6 cm2 for each kW and in any case not less than 100 cm2; the above-
mentioned area must be increased if there are other active generators inside the room.
» the opening must be located in the lower part of an external wall, protected by an external grille
which must not be obstructed and/or blocked and must be cleaned periodically.
▪ In a hermetic installation, all the combustion air must be drawn (directly from the outside
using special sealed pipes and connections), allowing installation even in dwellings that
require a high degree of insulation such as "passive" or "high energy efficiency" houses,
therefore free air intakes or ventilation grilles are not necessary in the installation room.
Set the equipment down on the floor very carefully without any bumping and
position it in the required area.
Make sure the floor can take the weight of the equipment, otherwise see a specialist
technician.
5.3.3. PLACE OF INSTALLATION, POSITIONING AND FIRE-PREVENTION SAFETY
Installation of the product must be carried out in a domestic environment respecting the following conditions:
▪ Minimum temperature not below 0°C.
▪ Provide for an easy-to-access technical maneuvering space for periodic maintenance.
▪ Presence of an approved power outlet and/or safety disconnect, accessible once the work is completed.
▪ Presence of an adequate fume evacuation system correctly sized according to current Standards, resistant to
soot fire and which respects the prescribed distances from combustible materials as per the dataplate.
▪ Presence of adequate external ventilation to allow the entry of combustion air and for the evacuation of any small
combustion fume leaks.
▪ The unit must be connected to a fume evacuation system correctly sized according to EN 13384-1, resistant to
soot fire and which respects the prescribed distances from combustible materials as per the dataplate.
