Safety Instructions
•
Packaging material is dangerous to children. Never allow children to play
with packaging material.
•
Risk of Death -
Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room if the
appliance is being operated in extraction-air mode at the same time as
room air-dependent heat-producing appliance(s) are being operated.
•
Room air-dependent heat-producing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or
coal operated heaters, continuous flow heaters or water heaters) obtain
combustion air from the room in which they are installed and discharge
the exhaust gases into the open air through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a
chimney).
•
In combination with an activated vapour extractor hood, room air is
extracted from the kitchen and neighbouring rooms
–
a partial vacuum is
produced if not enough fresh air is supplied. Toxic gases from the
chimney or the extraction shaft are sucked back into the living space.
•
Adequate incoming air must therefore always be ensured.
•
An incoming/exhaust air wall box alone will not ensure
compliance with the limit.
•
Safe operation is possible only when the partial vacuum in the place
where the heat producing appliance is installed does not exceed 4 Pa
(0.04 mbar). This can be achieved when the air needed for combustion is
able to enter through openings that cannot be sealed, for example in
doors, windows, incoming/ exhaust air wall boxes or by other technical
means.
•
In any case, consult your responsible Master Chimney Sweep. They will
be able to assess the house's entire ventilation setup and will suggest the
suitable ventilation measures to you.
