  • Page 10: 2-Installation

    2-INSTALLATION The instructions in this chapter refer explicitly to the Italian installation regulation UNI 10683. In any case, always observe the domestic regulations in force. PELLETS Wood pellets are manufactured by hot-extruding compressed sawdust which is produced during the working of natural dried wood. The compactness of the material is guaranteed by the lignin contained in the wood itself and allows pellets to be produced without glue or binders.
  • Page 11: Minimum Distances

    2-INSTALLATION FOREWORD The installation position must be chosen according to the room, to the smoke extraction system, to the chimney flue. Check with local authorities whether there are any restrictive regulations in force regarding the combustion air inlet, the smoke outlet system, the flue or the chimney cap.
  • Page 12 2-INSTALLATION FOREWORD The Chimney Flue chapter has been drawn up with reference to the provisions of European Standards (EN13384 - EN1443 - EN1856 - EN1457). The chapter provides instructions for installing a chimney flue efficiently and properly, but under no circumstances is it a substitute of the Standards in force, which the qualified technician must be in possession of.
  • Page 13: Technical Characteristics

    2-INSTALLATION TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS Have the efficiency of the flue checked by an authorised technician. The flue must be sealed against flue gasses, in a vertical direction without narrowing, be made with materials impermeable to smoke, condensation, thermally insulated and suitable to resist normal mechanical stress over time (we recommend fireplaces made of A/316 or refractory material with insulated round section double chamber).

  • Page 15: Maintenance

    2-INSTALLATION MAINTENANCE The flue must be kept clean, since the deposit of soot or unburned oils reduces the cross-section reducing the draft and thus compromising the efficient operation of the stove and, if large build-ups accumulate, can catch fire. The flue and chimney must be cleaned and checked by a qualified chimney sweep at least once a year.
  • Page 16: External Air Inlet

    2-INSTALLATION EXTERNAL AIR INLET It is mandatory to provide an adequate external air intake that supplies the combustion air required for the product to work properly. The flow of air between the outside and the installation room may be direct, through an inlet in an external wall of the room; or indirect, via air intake from adjoining rooms and connecting permanently with the installation room (see Figure 9 b).
