Height adjustment and levelling the
appliance
The appliance must be perfectly level,
horizontally and vertically, both at the
front and on the sides (use a spirit level).
2.3.5.
Connection to the flue
The appliance must be connected to the
chimney flue using special piping designed
to resist the products of combustion (e.g.
stainless steel, enamelled steel, etc.).
To connect the flue to the socket flange,
insert the piping inside the flange and seal
the joint with fire sealant or fire cement to
make it completely airtight.
The installer must ensure that the pipe
connected to the appliance is well secured
and there is no chance of it coming free
from its housing (e.g. as a result of
dilatation due to temperature, etc.).
On this appliance, the flue socket can be
fitted either on top or at the rear of the
appliance.
