07. INSTALLATION
HANDLING AND UNPACKING
When transporting do not position the product horizontally. Unloading of the product must be performed using lifting means that are suitable and that have
characteristics that are consistent with the weight of the stove. The operator must make sure that during offloading and lifting of the stove there are no persons or
objects nearby. When unpacking, avoid damaging the product with cutters or blunt tools. Keep the packaging out of the reach of children. Remove the screws of
the brackets holding the product to the pallet and put it in position taking care to avoid anything that may block installation or damage the product. Use a lifter or
pallet truck to separate the apparatus from the transport pallet using the appropriate opening on its base.
Pay attention to the balance of the product given its size and weight.
PLACE OF INSTALLATION
Observe the safety distances described above.
In compliance with the current regulations for installation, the pellet thermo-stove must be installed in a well-ventilated location with sufficient air to ensure correct
combustion and, therefore, effective operation. The room must have a volume of no less than 20 m³ in order to ensure effective combustion (40 m³/h of air). A
“combustion air intake” is required that reaches an external wall or a wall of an adjacent room with an external air intake with an 80mm minimum diameter. Adjacent
rooms cannot be bedrooms, bathrooms, or those that pose a fire risk, such as storerooms, garages, storage rooms for combustible materials, etc. These air intakes
must be created in such a way that they cannot be obstructed either internally or externally and must be protected by a grille, wire mesh or other suitable guards
provided that they do not reduce the minimum cross section.
When in operation, the pellet stove may cause a negative pressure in the room where it is installed. No other naked flame appliance can coexist in the same room,
with the exception of only type c boilers (watertight) unless they are fitted with their own air inflow.
They must not be positioned close to curtains, armchairs, furniture or to other flammable materials.
They must not be installed in explosive or potentially explosive environments which may become explosive due to the presence of machinery, materials or dust
that can cause greenhouse gas emissions or which can easily ignite with sparks. Before installing the thermo-stove, it must be borne in mind that all finishes or any
beams made of combustible material must be positioned at a suitable distance and outside the irradiation area of the stove itself; furthermore, it must be borne in
mind that in order to not compromise the correct operation of the appliance, air must be allowed to circulate inside its housing to prevent overheating, this is possible
by observing minimum distances and creating ventilation holes.
The use of hosing is recommended that connects the appliance to the hydraulic system as, in the case of ordinary or extraordinary maintenance, this makes it easy
to move. It is also recommended to install a dirt separator as the electronic pump could capture the dirt of the system and become jammed.
Airtight stoves take combustion and glass-cleaning air directly from the outside, not from the room where they are located, when correctly
attached with a suction tube. No oxygen is then consumed from the room. Using coaxial tubes the air will be pre-warmed contributing to
improved combustion and lower emissions into the atmosphere. Ideal for passive houses, they offer best comfort at the lowest cost. The
stove works even if not connected to the external air intake.
