3. INSTALLATION AND IGNITION
3.1 CHOOSING THE CORRECT STOVE SIZE
When calculating the stove size it is necessary to consider the volume of the room where it is to be
installed, the hourly requirement of calories to heat the room and the hourly consumption of pellets
(kg).
The following calculations show how to choose the correct stove size:
Volume of room = Length x Width x Height
Kcal/h required for room = 40 approx. (depending on how the building is insulated)
1 kg top quality pellet = 4.9 kW = 4214 kcal/kg
example: room measuring 8m x 5m x 2.7m = 108 m³
108 m³ x 40 Kcal/h = 4320 kcal/h total requirement for the room
Pellet consumption per hour:
STQ14
1,4 kg/h at maximum speed
ST18-STQ18-STC18 1.8 kg/h at maximum speed
MT28-MTQ28-MTC28 2.8 kg/h at maximum speed
1,4 kg/h x 4214 Kcal/kg = 5899 Kcal/h output
1.8 Kg/h x 4214 Kcal/kg = 7585 kcal/h output
2.8 kg/h x 4214 Kcal/kg = 11799 kcal/h output
For the room above, we recommend installing a ST 16 stove.
3.2 UNPACKING AND POSITIONING THE STOVE
The packed stove has already been assembled and is ready for installation. We recommend keeping
it upright when you move it, using appropriate equipment and taking special care with the glass
door. After positioning the stove in the chosen place unpack it, taking care to remove all packing,
which could harm its operation. Align the feet so that the stove is perfectly level and install the
heatproof surface underneath to protect the floor. Using the screws supplied, install the control
panel on top of the stove. To check that the white plastic spar of the sensor is straight.
When disposing of the packing, follow the regulations in the country where the stove is being
installed.
3.3 THE LOCATION OF THE STOVE AND CONNECTION TO A CHIMNEY
The stove should be connected to an 80 mm diameter exhaust flue with a 90° connection.
If the exhaust flue is connected to a chimney, the latter should be inspected and cleaned of all soot
residues and its diameter should be at least 130 mm.
The pipe connectors should be sealed by gaskets or can be sealed with high temperature silicone.
You should make sure that your chimney flue complies with current UNI standards.
