ENGLISH
• SMOKE DUCT
The term smoke duct is taken to mean the duct
which connects the boiler-stove smoke outlet
pipe to the flue inlet.
The smoke duct must be made using non-flexi-
ble steel or ceramic pipes. Flexible metal or
fibrocement pipes must not be used. Horizontal
or downward sloping sections must be avoided.
Any changes in cross-section must occur at the
outlet from the boiler-stove, and not at the con-
nection with the flue, for instance.
Bends of greater than 45° are not allowed (see
figures 1, 2, 3 and 4). The joint between the
steel pipe and the boiler-stove smoke outlet
must be sealed with high temperature mastic.
In addition to that mentioned above, please
consider the indications stipulated in UNI
10683/2005 standard, paragraph 4.2: “con-
nection to the smoke outlet system” and its
subsections
.
• SMOKE OUTLET
The chimney flue is intended as the channel that
reaches the building roof from the thermo stove
room of use.
The basic characteristics of the flue are:
• capacity to support a smoke temperature of at
least 450°C;
• suitably insulated to prevent condensate from
forming;
• constant cross-section, almost vertical and
devoid of bends greater than 45°;
• preferably circular internal cross-section; in the
case of rectangular cross-sections, the maximum
ratio between the sides must be 1.5;
• internal cross-section with surface area equal
at least to the size shown in the product specifi-
cations;
• connected to only one hearth.
In the case of old or oversized flues, it is advisable
to line them with stainless steel pipes of a suitable
diameter and suitable insulation.
• BUTTERFLY VALVE
It is advisable to include a butterfly valve (shut-
ter) on the smoke duct. The valve must be easy
to operate and found in a place which allows it
to be distinguished externally from the regula-
tion knob. The valve must stay firm in the set
position, and must not close automatically.
• CHIMNEY
The basic features of the chimney pot are:
• internal cross-section at the base equal to the
flue cross-section;
• outlet cross-section not less than twice the flue
cross-section;
• a position in the open air above the roof
beyond the reflux area.
Other than that described in this documenta-
tion, you are also asked to note the following
UNI standards:
- No. 10683/2005 - firewood heat genera-
tors: installation requirements
- No. 9615/90 - calculating the internal
dimensions of fireplaces
- No. 10412:2 - hot water heating systems.
Specific safety requirements for systems provi-
ded with residential solid fuel
burning appliances and combined boiler, not
exceeding a total nominal heat input of 35 kW.
Particularly:
-Before carrying out any assembly it is impor-
tant to verify compatibility of the appliance, as
stipulated in UNI
10683/2005 standard, paragraphs 4.1 / 4.1.1
/ 4.1.2.
-When assembly is completed, the installer
must implement “start-up operations” and issue
documentation as required by UNI
10683/2005 standard in paragraphs 4.6 and
5, respectively.
-The connections, commissioning and veri-
fication of proper operation of the boiler-
stove must be carried out by qualified person-
nel, who can implement the electrical and
plumbing connections as required by UNI stan-
dards
10683/2005, paragraph 4.5 and 10412:2,
apart from complying with these assembly
instructions.
LOCATION
The boiler-stove is delivered on a pallet covered
with a cardboard box. Remove the boiler-stove
from its packaging, check that the model is the
one ordered, and make sure it has not been
damaged during transport.
Any complaints must be made to the retailer (on
the accompanying consignment note).
Before positioning the boiler-stove, make sure
the flue is suitable for the smoke produced.
The boiler-stove must be level for correct opera-
tion.
Check the load-bearing capacity of the floor. If
insufficient, it must be reinforced. If the boiler-
stove is installed on a floor made of flammable
material, it is advisable to place it on tiles
AIR INTAKE
The room where the boiler-stove is located
must have an air intake with cross section
of at least 200 cm
2
to ensure replenishment
of the air consumed by combustion.
