Operating area
For proper functioning and a good temperature distribution,
the stove shoul be positioned in a location where it is able
to take in the air necessary for combustion of the pellet
(about 40 m
3
/h must be available), as laid down in the
standard governing the installation and in accordance with
local national standards.
The volume of the room must not be less than 30 m
3
.
The air must come in through permanent openings made
in walls (in prossimity to the stove) which give onto the
outside, with a minimum cross-section area of 100 cm
2
.
These openings must be made in such a way that it is not
possible for then to be obstructed in any way. Alternatively,
the air can be taken from rooms adjacent to the one which
needs ventilating, as long as they are provided with an air
intake from the outside, and are not used as bedrooms or
bathrooms, and provided there is no fire risk such as there
is for example in garages, woodsheds, and storerooms,
with particular reference to what is laid down in current
standards.
It is not permissible to install the
thermostove in bedrooms, bathrooms,
or in a room where another heating
appliance is installed (fireplace, stove etc.) which
does not have its own independent air intake.
Locating the thermostove in a room with an
explosive atmosphere is prohibited.
The floor of the room where the thermostove is
to be installed must be strong enough to take its
weight. If walls are flammable, maintain a minimum
distance of 10 cm at the rear (A), di 40 cm at the
side (B) and 150 cm at the front.
If the room contains objects which are believed to
be particularly delicate, such as drapes, sofas and
other furniture, their distance from the thermostove
should be considerably increased.

Connection to the external air intake
It is essential that at least as much air must be able to
flow into the room where the thermostove is installed as
is required for proper combustion in the appliance and for
the ventilation of the room.
This can be effected by means of permanent openings in
the walls of the room to be ventilated, which give onto the
outside, or by single or collective ventilation ducts.
For this purpose, on the external wall near the thermostove,
a hole must be made with a minimum free cross-section of
100 cm
2
. (equivalent to a round hole of 12 cm diameter or
a square hole 10x10 cm) protected by a grille on the inside
and the outside.
The air intake must also: communicante directly with the
room where the thermostove is installed be protected by
a grille, metal mesh or suitable guard, as long as this does
not reduce the area below the minimum.
Be positioned in such a way as to be impossible to
obstruct.
It is not compulsory to connect the air
intake directly with the stove (so that it
draws air directly from outside), but it is
essential at all events to ensure an airflow of 50
cubic metres per hour by the use of a hole of the
dimensions given. See standard UNI 10683.
In the presence of wood floors, install a
floor protection surface in compliance
with the rules in force in the country
