CALCULATE FLUE LENGTH
Not all parts can be adjusted! To fit the drainage system correctly, you
are to use an adjustable fitting. You can use an adjustable concentric
pipe, wall or roof fitting. To get a sealed flue gasconnection, the inner
pipe must always be 2 cm longer than the outer pipe. Always attach
adjustable parts with a chuck parker.
For proper operation of the fireplace it is important that the flue pipe
meets the requirements. To determine this, we prepared a cha
rt. (See

POWER-FAN
For flue configurations that do not function on natural draft, the PowerFan
can be used. For extensive installation instructions and the operation of
the PowerFan we refer to the manual of the PowerFan on the Element4
website or via your dealer.

INSTALLATION OF FLUE MATERIAL
Follow the following instrucions for the installation of flue materials;
•
Drill a hole of 160 mm for the wall or roof transit with a 150 mm
diameter flue connection, and 210 mm with a flue with a diameter
of 200 m.
•
In a situtation of non-combustible materials keep a distance of at
least 50 mm between the outside of the concentric pipes and the
wall or ceiling.
•
Provide a (fire) safe transit construction in wall, floor or roof
sheeting. Whenever venting passes through a wall, an approved
heat shield or ‘wall thimble’ must be installed.
•
Build up the system from the fireplace.
•
Assemble pipes in the correct direction! The inner pipe goes into
and the outer pipe goes over the fireplace connection.
•
Make sure the tubes are sufficiently braced, so the weight of the
tubes are not supported on the fireplace.
•
The concentric pipes could come loose due to expansion and
cooling down. It is recommended that a chuck parker be used in
places that are inaccessible after installation.
•
The horizontal flue sections must be fitted sloping to the fireplace.
•
In case of long horizontal stretches, it is advised to install a tap
point into the flue, at its lowest point, to be able to drain the
condensation formed during burning of gas.
