PELLET BURNING STOVES INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL
8
where there is no fire hazard such as: garages, sheds, storage of combustible materials, etc., strictly complying with
the requirements under current rules. It is absolutely prohibited to installation the stove in bedrooms, bathrooms, and
where it is already installed another d heating device without adequate airflow (fireplace, stove, etc..).
It is expressly prohibited the placement of the stove in environments with
explosive atmospheres. The floor of the room where the stove will be installed must be
sized appropriately to support the weight of the stove itself (which should be
considered in addition to the weight of the machine said the same load must be added
a maximum of 60 kg for the pellets, and 80 kg for water). When installing , keep a
minimum distance from obstacles and not flammable (B) of 25 cm the rear to, lateral
(LR) of 25 cm and anterior (C) of 80 cm. In the presence of objects believed to be
particularly sensitive such as furniture, curtains, sofas, carpets, etc., greatly increase the distance of the stove from
them. In the presence of wooden floor floor- prepare the plan and in accordance with
rules in force in the country, on fire prevention .
2.4. CONNECTION TO THE EXTERNAL AIR INTAKE
It is essential that the room where the stove is installed , the stove can avail of an
air flow in sufficient quantity as it is required by the regular combustion equipment
and ventilation. This can be done by means of permanent openings on the walls
that give the room to be ventilated to the outside, ventilation ducts or through
individual or collective. Within this scope , the outer wall near the stove must have
an opening minimum 100 cm ², protected by a grid inside and outside. The air
intake must also:
• be communicating directly with the installation environment
•be protected by a grate, wire mesh or other suitable protection, provided it does
not reduce the minimum section.
• position in a suitable manner as to prevent it from being obstructed in any way
It is prohibited to connect the air directly to the stove (communicating
directly from the outside), to avoid compromising thermodynamic performance,
however it is required that the conditions still guarantee about 50 m³ / h of air
replacement, as provided in the current UNI 10683 .
2.5. CONNECTION OF SMOKE DISCHARGE PIPE
When making the hole for the flue pipe it must be taken into account the possible
presence of inflammable materials. If the hole has to go through a wood wall or
other thermo labile material , the installer MUST use the Industrial insulated pipe
(with min thermal conductivity of 0.07 W / m ° K). The same applies if the stove pipe
must go vertical or horizontal sections remain near (min.20cm) to a heat- labile wall.
The combustion chamber works in depression, so the exhaust duct for the exhaust
fumes will be linked to depression when effective chimney as prescribed.
