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.
