Fig. 11

Minimum clearances

Combustion gases

All gas heaters must be connec

ted in a leak-roof manner to 

a gas evacuation pipe of adequate dimensions.

The flue must:

– be vertical (reduced horizontal sections or no 

horizontal sections at all)

– be thermally insulated
– have an exit above the maximum roof level.

The combustion gases evacuation pipe must be inserted in 

the flue ring. The external di

ameter of the pipe must be 

slightly less than the diameter of the flue indicated in the 
table of heater dimensions.

The extremity of the evacuation pipe must be protected 

against wind/rain.

If these conditions cannot be me

t, a different location must be 

selected for the gas intake and evacuation.

Surface temperature
The maximum surface temperature of the heater is less than 
85 °C, with the exception of the combustion gases evacuation 
device. No special protection measures are required for 
flammable construction material

s or built-in furniture items.

Air intake
The place where the heater is to be installed must have an area 
of air supply according to the table.

The minimum requirements are listed above; however, each 
country's specified requiremen

ts must also be respected.

5.3

Heater mounting

Remove the temperature/flow selector and the power 

selector.

Unscrew the front fixing screws.
With a simultaneous movement

 towards you and upwards, 

release the front of the two lugs from the back.

Fix the heater vertically, using the provided screw hooks 

and plugs.

5.4

Water connection

It is advisable to purge the inst

allation beforehand, because the 

presence of dirt may reduce the flow and, in extreme cases, 
cause a blockage.

Identify the cold water pipe (Fig. 12, item A) and the hot 

water pipe (Fig. 12, item B), so as to avoid any possible 
mis-connection.

DANGER: 
Make sure that all flue

 connections are tighten 

sealed.

Failure to follow this requirement may 

cause dangerous exhaust gases to enter 
living space which may result causing 
personal injury or loss of life.

CAUTION: 
Ensure that the extremity of the evacuation 
pipe is placed between the ledge and the ring 
of the flue.
