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 ue eciently and properly, but under no circumstances is it a substitute of the
Standards in force, which the qualied technician must be in possession of. Check with local authorities whether there are any restrictive
regulations in force regarding the combustion air inlet, the smoke outlet system, the ue or the chimney cap.
The company declines all liability relating to the poor functioning of the stove if this is due to the use of an insuciently sized ue in
violation of the Standards in force.
SMOKE FLUE
The ue or chimney is of great importance for the proper operation of a solid fuel-burning heating appliance with natural draught, as
modern heating appliances have high eciency with cooler ue gasses and consequently less draught, it is therefore essential that the
ue is built up to standard and always kept in perfect working order. A ue that serves a pellet/wood fuelled appliance must be at least
category T400 (or greater if the appliance requires so) and resistant to soot res. Smoke must be extracted through a single ue made of
insulated steel (A) or an existing ue that complies with the intended use (B).
A simple air shaft made of cement must be suitably lined. In both solutions there must be an inspection cap (AT) and/or inspection hatch
(AP) - FIG.1.
It is forbidden to connect more than one wood/pellet-burning appliance or of any other kind (vent hoods... ) to the same ue.
