Connection
Electrical connection
It is important that the stove is installed by qualified personnel. Connection to
the mains is by means of the power cable provided. Ensure that the plug
remains accessible at all times when the appliance is installed. Ensure a properly
earthed socket. The stove is protected by a fuse at the back of the stove.
Connection to the flue gas duct
This chapter describes the conditions that the flue gas duct must meet. These
conditions prescribed by us should in no way be considered a substitute for existing
regulations. All local provisions, including those referring to national and European
standards, must be observed when installing the flue gas duct.
The factory is not responsible for any malfunction of the stove due to the use of a flue
that does not comply with the conditions and regulations.
•
Have the flue and pellet stove installed by qualified personnel.
•
The internal diameter of the duct should be equal to or greater than 80
mm.
•
Use only steel or stainless steel pipes for the ductwork, not plastic or
aluminium.
•
Use only pipes with a silicone sealing ring for the duct, which are
resistant to high temperatures.
•
When taking bends, always use tees with an inspection facility for annual
maintenance.
•
The connection between the stove and the chimney should be as short as
possible to ensure a good draught and to prevent condensation.
•
Do not use more than three 90° bends (tees).
•
Horizontal sections should not exceed 2 metres in length with a minimum
angle of 5°.
•
Do not connect more than 1 appliance to a flue.
•
Use insulated pipes outdoors to prevent condensation.
Ventilation
For proper combustion in the stove, it is necessary to provide good ventilation to the
room in which the stove is located. Poor combustion can be caused by poor
ventilation in the house. This can especially occur in modern, airtight homes. Even in
rooms where (electric) ventilation is present, poor combustion can occur more
quickly. Applying/installing proper ventilation can prevent these problems. Good
ventilation at the stove is mandatory.
