Incorrect parameter settings can lead to exceeding of the safety limits and can lead to excessive consumption of pellets.
The safety limits can also be exceeded due to poor ventilation of the room in which the furnace is located, which does not
provide the appliance with enough cold air.
Disabling the safety devices is PROHIBITED. When the user eliminates the cause of activation of the security system,
the appliance can be restarted in order to restore its proper functioning.
⚠
ATTENTION: The appliance must be installed in such a way so that its electrical cable is easily accessible.
specified in chapter 3. ALFA PLAM bears no responsibility for any personal injury or property damage that may occur if the
furnace is not used in accordance with the conditions listed in this user guide. ALFA PLAM also bears no responsibility for
any personal injury or property damage that may occur if the user fails to comply with the following regulations:
A)
All the necessary measures and precautions must be taken to ensure that no party turns on the equipment while
carrying out repairs, adjustments, replacement of parts and maintenance operations;
B)
Do not remove or modify any safety devices on the appliance;
C)
The appliance must be connected to the system for smoke removal which is functioning properly;
D)
Make sure that the surrounding area in which the furnace is set is sufficiently ventilated, as prescribed in this user
guide.
Surrounding area for using the product
⚠
ATTENTION: The appliance must be installed in a surrounding area with ventilation, and it must be provided with
sufficient air combustion in accordance with the applicable regulations. This is important for ensuring its proper operation.
⚠
ATTENTION: The room must have a volume not less than 20 m
3
and must possess all the necessary ventilation
conditions, as described in Chapter 2 of this user guide. These conditions will provide the necessary air flow to allow for
proper combustion (40 m
3
/h).
Using the product in the bedrooms and bathrooms is PROHIBITED.
Using the product in spaces with another heating appliance which does not have its own system for air intake is
PROHIBITED.
Placing the product close to flammable materials is PROHIBITED.
Placing the product on the floor made of flammable material unless a protective plate is used made of non-flammable
materials is PROHIBITED.
Using the product in explosive and potentially explosive atmospheres is PROHIBITED.
Installation
You must comply with all local and national laws and European standards when installing, using and maintaining the
appliance.
Positioning the appliance
Our product creates heat by bringing the necessary air in for the combustion process directly from the environment which
needs to be warmed up.
For this reason and because of the basic safety of the users of the furnace, the appliance should always be installed
inside an adequately aired out area to ensure a constant flow of combustion air.
Therefore, it is necessary to place the air intake vents that are connected to the air outside (as shown in Figure 2.1)
In accordance with the provisions set forth in the UNI 10683 standard, air intake vents must have the following
characteristics:
1.
They must not have an internal cross-section of less than 80 cm
2
;
2.
They must be placed at an approximate height of the floor;
3.
They must be adequately protected by wire mesh or grate so that the minimum radius condition for air flow is not
diminished;
4.
They must be placed so as not to be blocked in any way.
Correct flow of fresh air can also be ensured by using the opening to the next room, if that room comes equipped with
direct ventilation and does not pose a risk of fire, such as a warehouse, garage or storage, as set forth by the UNI10683
standard.
It is recommended that you avoid placing a heating device in the rooms with devices which cannot work in a closed
manner compared to the surrounding area or in the rooms where there are devices which can reduce the pressure in the
room itself compared to the external environment, as this can lead to problems with low air intake for our product (UNI
10683)
.
⚠
ATTENTION: It is forbidden to discharge combustion products of the furnace in a common stovepipe.
When checking the system compatibility, it is recommended to determine if the support surface of the support (floor)
possesses adequate load capacity (kg) to support the weight of the product. If this is not the case, it is recommended to take
appropriate safety measures (for example, use a distribution board).
When installing the furnace, it is advised to place it at the appropriate distance from the wall to allow access to the back
side of the furnace (we recommend at least 20 cm) and to the side (we recommend 80 cm). Such a space may be necessary,
for example, in order to be able to adequately clean the product.
