5.4 COMBUSTION AIR
The stove, during its operation, draws a quantity of
air from the environment in which it is placed (with
the exception of the products of the hermetic series
that can take it directly from the outside); this air
must be reintegrated through an air intake outside
the room itself (Fig. 5.3 - PA = Air inlet).
Make the air inlet on the wall and allow the
stove to extract air from the room, taking care
to connect the corrugated pipe section in the air
inlet pipe, if supplied, and secure it with the band
by bending it slightly downwards to prevent any
reverberation.
If the rear wall of the stove is an external wall,
create a hole for suction of the combustion air at a
height of approximately 20-30 cm from the ground,
respecting the dimensional indications provided
in the product technical sheet at the end of the
manual.
A non-closable permanent aeration grid must be
placed external; in areas that are particularly windy
and exposed to weathering, provide rain and wind
protection.
Make sure the air intake is positioned so that it is
not accidentally obstructed.
If it is impossible to create the external air intake
in the rear wall of the stove (non-perimeter wall) a
hole must be created in an external wall of the room
where the stove is positioned.
If the air inlet cannot be created outside the room,
you can make the external hole in an adjacent room
provided that it is permanently connected with the
transit grid (Fig. 5.4 - C = Shutter box, G = Grille,
S = Shutter).
The UNI 10683 standard prohibits the taking of
combustion air from garages, combustible material
If there are other heating appliances in the room,
the combustion air intakes must guarantee the
necessary volume of air for correct operation of all
the devices.
In the event that one or more extraction fans
(suction hoods) are present and functioning in
the room where the stove is located, combustion
malfunctions due to the lack of combustion air could
occur.
