to monitor operation when M-WRG-II ventilation units are used in conjunction with
fireplaces.
—
Follow the requirements of the German Fire Code (FeuVo) when planning and
installing the unit.
— Contact the local chimney sweep before the end of the planning phase.
— Have the chimney sweep approve the operation of the ventilation unit.
— Correct use of a ventilation system set up with the decentralised ventilation unit
requires the possibility of shutting off combustion air pipes and flue systems for solid
fuel fireplaces during periods in which the fireplaces are not in use.
