5.2 Room selection
Cortina series boilers must be installed in an individual boiler room particularly organized for
heating. The boiler room should be of enough volume for installation, firing, and maintenance of
the boiler. There should be enough space from the wall for easy removing the geared motor and
the shaft for service intervention. For appropriate dimensions look into “clearances around boiler”
section.
There should be enough fresh air circulation for combustion, the chimney design must ensure an
adequate draught for related boiler type, and must comply with construction criteria given further
in this manual and in mandatory regulations. Your boiler must never be installed in open spaces or
balconies, in spaces occupied by people like kitchen, living room, bathroom and bedroom, in
spaces where there are explosive and combustible materials.
The boiler room should have air ventilation holes through outside to let fresh air in. One air
ventilation hole must be built maximum 40 cm below the level of room ceiling; the other must be
built maximum 50 cm above the floor level. These ventilation holes should always be kept open.
The upper hole should be at least 40x40 cm in size, the lower hole at least 30x30 cm.
All hydraulic and electrical circuits must be arranged by authorized staff in accordance with
mandatory regulations specified by legal organizations.
Pellets should be stored by keeping minimum 800 mm distance from the boiler. We recommend
you to keep the solid fuel in another room.
