way substitute such regulations.
The product must be connected to a flue system which
ensures that the fumes produced by combustion are
expelled in complete safety.
Before positioning the appliance, one must check that
the flue is suitable.
FUMES DUCT, FLUE
The fumes duct (which connects the combustion
chamber smoke outlet with the flue) and the flue itself
must, among other regulatory requirements:

of multiple appliances may not be conveyed into
a single flue)
• have a mainly vertical course (no horizontal
sections and bends of over 45° are allowed)
• have no downwards sloping sections
• have a preferably circular internal cross section
and nevertheless with a ratio of the sides of less
than 1.5
• terminate at roof level with a proper chimney pot:
