SYSTEM INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
5.1.
Requirements for installing the system
o
the minimum clearance in front of the boiler
to allow it to be cleaned, serviced, etc. must be
1000 mm
;
o
the minimum clearance permitted between the rear of the boiler and a wall must be
400 mm
;
o
the minimum clearance between the top of the boiler and a wall (ceiling) must be
400 mm
to ensure easy
access for cleaning and servicing the heat exchanger (to remove the ash, for instance);
o
the minimum distance between the boiler and the wall must be
300 mm.
Air inlets linked to the outside must be arranged and, in compliance with the provisions of Standard UNI 10683,
these must have the following characteristics:
1. Have a free cross-section of no less
than 100 cm
2
;
2. Be provided as close to floor-level as possible;
3. Be suitably protected by a wire mesh or grate so that the free cross-section for air passage is not reduced;
4. Be positioned in such a way as not to be obstructed in any way.
The correct supply of air can be guaranteed through apertures into an
adjoining room, provided that direct ventilation is provided and that such
a room is not a fire hazard, such as store rooms, garages or warehouses,
in accordance with the regulations set out in Standard UNI 10683.
It is advisable to install the boiler in premises which do not contain appliances that do not operate in a room-
sealed manner or appliances that could depressurise the room itself compared to the outside and thereby cause
problems relating to poor draft for the smoke evacuation system (UNI 10683).
