gas connection. (This example shows a rear flue gas connection). After put-
ting the storage stones in position, replace the stove top cover. (

2.4. COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY
The combustion air supply can be provided in various ways as described in
sections 2.4.1, 2.4.2 and 2.4.3.

O/a5/a7/a8 stove draws the air it needs for
combustion from the room where it is installed (
non-room air sealed opera-
tion
). An adequate supply of fresh air must be ensured in the room where the
stove is installed (for further details refer to the heating systems regulations
for the country concerned, DIN 18896, the technical rules, etc.) The installer
and the operator of the stove should check the fresh air supply. An adequate
air supply for combustion must be ensured when several fireplaces are oper-
ated in one room or in connecting rooms. If the windows and doors are sealed
(e.g., in connection with energy-saving measures) the fresh air supply may
be restricted and that can adversely affect the stove’s draught. This can be
detrimental to your health and also, in some cases, to your safety.
If necessary, an additional air supply can be provided by fitting an air inlet near the
stove or by fitting a combustion air intake pipe which connects with the external
air (refer to section 2.4.3 Separate Combustion Air Supply on page 16) or with a
well ventilated room (not the room where the stove is installed). In particular, it
must always be ensured that the necessary combustion air intakes remain oper-
ational when the fireplace is in use. Note that operating a ventilating system at
the same time, e.g. an extractor hood or bathroom fan, in the same room or in
a connecting room can adversely affect the operation of the stove (even causing
smoke or flue gas to leak out into the room, despite the firebox door being closed).
Ventilating devices must therefore not be operated at the same time as the stove
unless suitable measures are taken to maintain the air supply to the stove.
