* The same flue should not be used for more than one unit or open fireplace. With
shared chimneys, each flue should reach its outlet independently and these should be at
the same level to ensure that the air circulation expels the gases;
* Brick chimneys should not be too wide, as the smoke will cool as it disperses, reducing
the draught. In case of draught problems, a revolving chimney cowl can be installed or
place a metallic tube in the inner part to improve the draft.

Installation Location Requirements
* The floor on which the unit will stand must be able to support a permanent load of 2,2
pounds (1kg)/cm². If the load capacity of the floor is insufficient, a solid plate can be
used to distribute the load over an area larger than the unit’s base;
* The equipment must be installed on a base of refractory bricks, or other type of
material with non-combustible characteristics, if it is a combustible material (example:
wood, etc...), a metal plate extending on the sides of the stove by 30 cm and the front
by 50 cm must be placed.
* No combustible materials may be used near the walls of the wood-burning stove
(safety distances must be observed, see Figure 2);
* The materials in front of the wood-burning stove must be able to withstand radiation
heating through the equipment's glass and should therefore not have combustible
characteristics;
* Refractory cement or other refractory material should be applied on the chimney walls;
* In order to assure a good functioning of your wood burning cooker, the air intake to
the insertion zone of the equipment must be made by following the sketch bellow.
The intake 1, from the exterior of the residence must always be guaranteed and must
have an area at least 100 cm

and without obstacles in such a way that the air intake is
sufficient for a good function; in case this situation isn’t possible, you will have to
contemplate in the installation air inlet for the combustion (intake 2) from the interior of
the residence, bearing mind the isolation degree of your residence and proximity of other
