Glow-worm article num- bers that are designed for the air/flue pipe is provided. If you do not use certified ele- ments for the Glow-worm air/flue pipe when installing the heat generators, this voids the CE conformity of the heat generator. We therefore strongly recommend that you in- stall Glow-worm air/flue systems.
Notes on the documentation Observing other applicable documents ▶ You must always observe the installation instructions for the installed heat generator. Storing documents ▶ Pass these instructions and all other applicable docu- ments on to the end user. Validity of the instructions These instructions apply only for the heat generators named in the other applicable documents, hereinafter referred to as the "product".
