3 INSTALLATION
3.1 Standards
The use of gas appliances is subject to strict regulations. It is
therefore important that the UNI 7129 standard is observed.
For liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), the installation must comply
with the requirements of the distributing companies and with the
requirements of the UNI 7131 standard.
3.2 Appliance positioning
DEVYL ARTIC
has been exclusively designed for outdoor installa-
tion in a partially protected environment. For this reason it must be
installed outdoors or in open environments with an adequate aera-
tion and natural ventilation, without stagnation areas for combus-
tion products, which must be quickly dispersed, either naturally or
by the wind.
The outlet of the appliance must be free from external obstruc-
tions, bodies or objects that might impair correct flue expulsion
and must feature guards preventing people from getting into con-
tact with it during or after operation: possibility of overheating with
consequent risk of burns.

3.3 Positioning
- The appliance should be installed on a suitable wall and it is
essential that the minimum spaces be left around it to allow
for maintenance work to be performed (see fig. 5b).
- The appliance should not be positioned above a cooking
appliance so as to avoid kitchen vapour grease being de-
posited on it and affecting operation.
- Heat-sensitive walls such as those made from wood should
be protected with suitable insulation.
During appliance installation the minimum distances of the outlet/
suction terminal must be respected according to what provided
for by local current regulation, complying with any other installed
appliance, openings, architectural elements, limits.

(*) For A-type appliance, the minimum distance is the center position of the outlet
section of the combustion products in the atmosphere.
(**) In the positioning of the appliance must be adopted distances not less than 500
mm from sensitive materials to the action of the combustion products (for exam-
ple, gutters and pipes of plastic material, projecting elements of wood, etc.); for
smaller distances take adequate shielding in respect of said material.
