OPERATING AREA
For proper functioning and good temperature distribution, the stove
should be positioned in a location where it is able to take in the air
necessary for combustion of the pellets (about 40 m
3
/h must be
available), as set forth in the standard governing the installation and in
accordance with local national standards.
The volume of the room must not be less than 30 m
3
.
The air must come in through permanent openings made in walls (in
proximity to the stove) which give onto the outside, with a minimum
cross-section area of 100 cm
2
.
These openings must be made in such a way that it is not possible for
them to be obstructed in any way.
Alternatively, the air can be taken from rooms adjacent to the one
which needs ventilating, as long as they are provided with an air intake
from the outside, and are not used as bedrooms or bathrooms, and
provided there is no fire risk such as there is for example in garages,
woodsheds, and storerooms, with strict compliance with the provisions
of current standards.
It is not permissible to install the stove in bedrooms,
bathrooms or showers, or in a room where another
heating appliance is installed (fireplace, stove etc.)
which does not have its own independent air intake.
Locating the stove in a room with an explosive
atmosphere is prohibited.
The floor of the room where the stove is to be
installed must be strong enough to support its
weight.
If the walls are not flammable, position the stove with a clearance to
the rear of at least 10 cm.
In the case of walls made of flammable material, maintain a minimum
clearance to the rear of 20 cm, a clearance to the sides of 50 cm, and a
clearance to the front of 150 cm. If the room contains objects which
are believed to be particularly delicate, such as curtains, sofas and
other furniture, their distance from the stove should be considerably
increased.
If the flooring is made of wood, provide a floor
protection surface in compliance with current
national standards.
