2.5 Example of ducting air to other rooms for even distribution of heat
2.5.2 Universaljolly do-it-yourself with inside suction
The air pipes must be routed to the rooms to be heated.
The return of air in the fireplace room must be guaranteed from every room in which the hot air arrives, through openings under the
doors or vents (see figure).
Fit a grille communicating with the fan, in the fireplace base, enabling air to enter.
The air can be delivered, outside the hood and flue, by means of flexible aluminium pipes with connections and branches in sheet metal.
The pipes must be fixed to the connections by means of pipe clamps.
The pipes must be insulated to ensure fireplace efficiency. Therefore they must be wrapped with rock/glass wool matting (min. thickness
3 cm) along their entire length (not inside the hood).
N.B. Avoid contact of the pipes with wood and flammable materials.
Using plastic pipes to deliver the air is very dangerous because the high temperatures could deform them and generate harmful gases.
Where the ducting pipes cannot be enclosed, they can be concealed with a false ceiling or using fake beams or boxing (see example).
Make sure to hermetically seal the space between the outlets and the wall with silicone, to prevent the air escaping and causing
blackening due to the heat (e.g. marks above radiators).
N.B. For the do-it-yourself version with inside suction it is advisable to create an outside air inlet in the most convenient
place in the room (walls or windows).
MAX. DUCTABLE LENGTH 15 METRES.
IMPORTANT!
For ducting to several rooms fit the T connection or Y connection (optional) and connect the two top outlets as well as
the ducting.
