MAINTENANCE
The flue must be kept clean, since the deposit of soot or unburned oils reduces the cross-section reducing the draft and thus compromising
the efficient operation of the stove and, if large build-ups accumulate, can catch fire. The flue and chimneypot must be cleaned and
checked by a qualified chimney sweep at least once a year. Once the inspection/maintenance has been performed, request a written
report that the system is safe.
Failure to perform cleaning jeopardises the system’s safety.
CHIMNEY POT
The chimney pot is a crucial element for the heating appliance to work properly: we recommend a wind proof chimney pot (A), see Figure
7.
The area of the opening for smoke
extraction must be at least double
the cross-section of the flue/lined
system, and arranged so that smoke
extraction is ensured even in strong
wind. The chimney must prevent rain,
snow or animals from entering the
chimney. The height of outflow into
the atmosphere must be beyond the
reflux area due to the shape of the roof
or any obstacles near the outlet (see
Figures 2-3-4-5-6).
