Instructions for the installer
11.2 Room ventilation and combustion extraction
The room containing the appliance should be permanently ventilated in accordance with the standards
in force. The room where the appliance is installed must have enough air flow as required for the regular
combustion of gas and by the necessary air exchange of the same room. The air vents, protected by
grills, must be suitably dimensioned in compliance with current standards and positioned so that no part
of them is obstructed.
The appliance must be kept adequately ventilated in order to eliminate the heat and humidity produced
by cooking: in particular, after prolonged use, you are recommended to open a window or to increase the
speed of any fans.
Combustion products can be extracted by means of hoods connected to a natural draught chimney
whose efficiency is assured or via forced extraction. An efficient extraction system requires precision
planning by a specialist qualified in this area and must comply with the positions and distances indicated
by the standards. When the job is complete, the installer must issue a certificate of conformity.
