• Important! An inspection-T with an airtight lid must be attached to the exhaust
pipe of the unit to allow the regular inspection of the system or discharge of heavy
dust and condensates.
• As indicated in Figure 9, the exhaust pipe must be assembled so as to allow cleaning
and maintenance of the pipe by inserting inspection points.
• Under normal operating conditions, the combustion gas flow should create a draught
of 12 Pa one meter above the chimney neck.
