The
fireplace
assembled by qualified personnel.
•
The fireplace stove must be connected to a flue
pipe or other vertical smoke stack that can
discharge smoke at the highest point of the
house.
•
The fireplace stove must be connected to a flue
pipe or an internal or external vertical duct
conforming to Building Regulations.
•
Smoke is generated from burning wood and,
therefore, may dirty adjacent or nearby walls.
•
Before positioning the fireplace stove, you must
make a hole for the intake of external air.
CONNECTION TO THE EXTERNAL AIR INTAKE
2.3.
The room where the stove is installed must have a constant supply of
combustion air in compliance with local Building Regulations.
Combustion air must be provided (in addition to normal room
ventilation) through open vents in the walls near the fireplace stove.
These vents must not be obstructed in any way.
For this purpose, we recommend the stove is be provided with a
permanently open vent of minimum open section 100cm² for the
supply of combustion air, protected by an indoor and outdoor grille. A
larger vent may be used if it is also required to supply room ventilation
in addition to combustion air (refer to local Building Regulations).
It is extremely important to comply fully with
providing vents for combustion air, otherwise the lack
of oxygen during stove use may compromise the
safety of the installation.
The air intake must:
•
directly communicate with the installation area
•
be protected by a grille, made of metallic anti-insect mesh or a
suitable protection as long as it does not reduce the minimum
section.
•
be installed so as to avoid obstruction
•
increase in duct size by 5% for duct lengths between 0.5m to
3.5m. For duct lengths over 3.5m the duct size should be
increased by 15%.
Remember that the ventilation grills always have a cm
useful section on one side. When selecting the grill and hole
dimension, make sure the useful grill section is greater than
or equal to the section required for product operations.
