GENERAL RULES
First of all decide the exact position for installation of the stove.
Check the minimum safe distances from heat sensitive or inflammable
materials, from load bearing and other walls and also from wooden
elements, furniture, etc.
In the case of flooring that is heat sensitive or inflammable the floor
should be protected with non-combustible insulating material, e.g.
sheets of steel plate, marble, tiles, etc.
The minimum distances are:
Connection to the flue must respect the 40 cm minimum safety
distance from heat-sensitive structural components or inflammable
materials (wood panelling, beams or ceilings, etc).
Keep away from the stove any combustible product such as
wooden furniture, curtains, carpets, combustible liquids, etc.
when it is lit /working (minimum distance 80 cm).
It is advisable to leave more than the indicated 20 cm free at

appliance.

1.8 MINIMUM SAFETY DISTANCES - Fig. 16 / 18

1.9 FLUEWAY - Fig. 19 - 20
DT2010229-04
The pellet stove is not the same as other stoves. It has a forced draught of flue gas by a fan, which keeps the firebox in a vacuum and the
entire flueway slightly pressurised. For this reason the flue must be completely airtight and correctly installed to ensure both trouble-free
operation and user safety.
- The flueway must be made by specialised personnel or firms, as outlined below.
- The flue must be installed in such a way as to guarantee that periodic cleaning can be carried out without dismantling any parts whatsoever.
- Pipes should always be sealed with silicone (not cement-based sealants) or specially adapted gaskets/seals, which retain their strength and
elasticity at high temperatures (250°C), and should be fixed with 3.9 mm ø self-tapping screws.
Do not install dampers or valves that could block the passage of flue gas.
Do not connect to a flueway into which other appliances (boilers, extractor hoods, etc.) discharge fumes or vapours.
