It is strongly recommended not to install extraction systems,
air conditioning systems or other devices in the boiler room
that, as a secondary effect, could cause the so-called "vac-
uum effect" and reduce the draught force of the boiler, with
the main consequence of damaging the burner.

Make sure that the boiler room receives sufficient air either
naturally or forced (using an aspirator).

To ensure the burner and the boiler work efficiently keep the
boiler room clean and prevent the formation of humidity.

the inadequate conditions of the boiler room, the hydraulic
pipes and the other components of the system.
