Suitable fuels
WOOd peLLetS
the wood pellets used (Figure 1) must comply with austrian standard ÖnOrM
M7135 or DIn Plus. Diameter 6 mm, length max. 30 mm.
Storage of wood pellets
Pellets are supplied with a maximum moisture content of 10 % (standards-
compliant). During transport and when storing pellets, they must be kept dry.
the storage location must be dry and free from contamination.
FIReWOOd (LOGS)
Firewood (Figure 2) should have a moisture content of approx. 20 % of the
dry weight, a length of 1/3 m and should be split into small pieces. this way,
the firewood quickly catches fire and produces a higher heat output than the
same volume of large logs. spruce wood, fir wood or alder wood should be
allowed to dry out for at least 2 years, hardwood as long as 3 years (under a
roofed shelter).
the effect of the water content in wood on the calorific value is shown in table
1:
unsuitable fuels
Moist wood, bark waste, sawdust, fine wood chips, brushwood, wood-wool,
wood shavings. use paper only in small amounts to kindle a fire. the burning
of such fuels results in significant pollutant emissions, large amounts of ash,
and the heat output is comparatively low.
prohibited fuels
surface-treated wood (veneered, painted, impregnated, etc.), particle board,
all types of household waste (packaging waste), plastic materials, newspapers,
rubber, leather, textiles, etc.
Burning these materials is harmful to the environment and is therefore prohibi-
ted by law. Furthermore, damage to the appliance and the chimney can occur.
Furthermore the combustion of coal and similar fuels is not permitted. the ap-
pliance has not been tested for use with these fuels; therefore damage to the
appliance cannot be ruled out and is not covered by warranty.

The appliance must not be connected to a shared flue system
•
For safe operation of the appliance an effective chimney height of at least 5
m (from the flue connection to the chimney outlet) is recommended.
•
For further information as regards the necessary minimum discharge pressure
see the technical details on page 30, in our brochures and on the nameplate.
•
Please have the minimum discharge pressure checked by the local chimney
sweep!
Flue pipe connection
the flue pipe is the connection between the insert stove and the chimney.
When installing the flue, please note the following instructions:
•
the aQua Insert requires a 120 mm flue pipe.
•
the connection between the insert stove and the chimney must be strong
and leak-proof. In particular the connection to the masonry of the chimney
must be durable and tight.
•
Make sure that the connecting piece can be cleaned (cleaning opening).
•
the diameter of the flue pipe must not decrease towards the chimney.
