EXTERNAL AIR INTAKE
In general, we suggest two ways for ensuring a proper
flow of combustion air.
Indirect air intake
Install an intake at floor level with effective area (net of
the mesh or other protective equipment) of at least 80
cm
2
(10 cm dia.).
To prevent draughts, we recommend installing the
intake behind the stove or behind a radiator.
Installing it in front of the appliance will create
unpleasant draughts.
Direct air intake
Install an air intake of effective area (net of the mesh or
other protective equipment) at least equal to that of the
air intake at the back of the product.
Connect the air intake to the appliance’s air intake with
a tube (which may also be flexible).
We recommend not exceeding a 5 m length and not
curving the tube at most 3 time, depending on the
draw of the flue.
The air maty be drawn from an adjacent room only if:
• the flow is taken from permanent and unobstructed
openings communicating with the outdoors;
• the adjacent room is never in underpressure
relative to the outdoors;
• the adjacent room is not a garage. subject to fire
hazard, a bathroom or bedroom
• the adjacent room is not a shared room in the
condominium.
