ENGLISH
All local and national laws and European standards must be
met when installing and using the appliance. In Italy, refer to
the UNI 10683 standard, as well as any regional or local health
authority regulations
It is necessary to refer to regulations in force in each country. If
installing in an apartment building, check with the management
company first.
VERIFY COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER
DEVICES
The stove MUST NOT be installed in the same space as type B
gas heating equipment (e.g. gas boilers, stoves, and equipment
served by an extraction hood) as the stove may cause a vacuum
in the space which may compromise or influence how these
units work.
VERIFYTHE POWER SUPPLYCONNECTION
(the plug must be accessible)
The stove is supplied with a power cable that is to be connected
to a 230V 50 Hz socket, preferably fitted with a magnetother -
mic switch. Voltage variations exceeding 10% can damage
the stove (unless already installed, an appropriate differential
switch must be fitted). The electrical system must comply
with the law; particularly verify the efficiency of the earthing
system. The power line must have a suitable cross-section for
the stove’s power. An inadequate earthing system can cause
anomalies for which Edilkamin cannot be held liable.
POSITIONING
The stove must be level for it to function correctly.
Verify the bearing capacity of the floor.
FIRE PREVENTION SAFETY DISTANCES
The stove must be installed in compliance with the following
safety conditions:
- minimum distance from flammable materials around the sides
and back of the stove: 20 cm
- flammable materials must not be placed less than 80 cm from
the front of the stove.
If it is not possible to comply with the above mentioned
distances, technical and construction-related provisions
must be taken to prevent fire hazards. If connected to wooden
walls or other flammable materials, the smoke exhaust pipe
must be appropriately insulated
AIR INTAKE
The room where the stove is located must have an air intake
with cross section of at least 80cm2 to ensurereplenishment
of the air consumed by combustion.Alternatively, the stove
air may be taken directly from outside through a 4 cm steel
extension of the pipe.
In this case,there may be condensation problems and it is ne-
cessary to protect the air intake with a grille, which must have
a freesection of at least 12 cm².
The pipe must be less than 1 metre long and have no bends.
It must end with section at 90° facing downwards or be fitted
with a wind guard. In any case all the way air intake duct must
be a free section of at least 12 cm².
The external terminal of the air inlet channel must be protected
with an anti-insect netting that does not reduce the
12 cm² through passage.
INSTALLATION
MOKE OUTLET
The stove must have its own smoke outlet (the smoke can-
not be discharged into a smoke flue used by other devices).
The smoke is discharged through the 8 cm diameter outlet at
the back of the stove. The smoke outlet must be connected to
outside by means of suitable steel pipes EN 1856 certified.
The pipe must be hermetically sealed.
The material used to seal and if necessary insulate the pipes,
must be resistant to high temperatures (high temperature silico-
ne or mastic).
The only horizontal section allowed may be up to 2 m long. It
may have up to three 90° bends.
A vertical section of at least 1.5m and an anti-wind terminal
is necessary (if the discharge outlet is not in a chimney flue -
reference UNI 10683).
The vertical duct can be internal or external. If the smoke chan -
nel is outside, it must be appropriately insulated.
If the smoke channel is fitted inside a chimney flue, the latter
must be suitable for solid fuel.
If it is wider than 150 mm in diameter it must be improved by
entering a pipe that has a suitable cross-section and is made of
suitable material (e.g. 80 mm diameter steel). All sections of
the smoke duct must be accessible for inspection.
The chimney pots and smoke ducts connected to the solid fuel
appliances must be cleaned once a year (verify whether a speci-
fic legislation exists in your country).
Failure to regularly inspect and clean the stove increases the
probability of a fire occurring in the chimney pot. In that case,
proceed as follows: Do not use water to extinguish the fire;
Empty the pellet hopper; Contact specialist personnel before
reigniting the stove.
The stove is designed to work under any weather conditions.
In case of particular conditions, such as strong wind, the safety
system may be activated, which results in the stove being
extinguished. If this happens, do not operate the stove with
the safety devices disabled. If the problem persists, contact our
Technical Service Department. In this case, do not operate the
appliance while the safety devices are disabled. If the problem
persists, contact the Service Centre.
A: insulated steel flue
B: minimum height of 1.5 m and in any case above the height of the
roof gutter
C-E: air intake from inside room (minimum internal section: 80 cm²)
D: steel flue, inside existing brick-built chimney.
CHIMNEY POT
The main characteristics are:
- an internal cross-section at the base, which is the same as that
of the chimney flue
- an outlet cross-section which is no smaller than twice that of
the chimney flue
- its position must be high enough to catch the wind and avoid
downdraft areas in turbulent wind, it must be high enough to
catch the wind and avoid downdraft areas in turbulent wind.
