ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION (Dealer)
Refer to the local regulations in the country of use for anything not expressly shown. In Italy, refer to UNI standard
10683/2005, along with any regional or local health authority regulations. If the stove is to be installed in a block of
flats or jointly owned property, consult the administration before installing.
COMPATIBILITY CHECK WITH OTHER DEVICES
The stove must NOT be installed in the same room as extractor fans, type A and B gas equipment, or devices which
lower the pressure in the room (refer to Italian standard UNI 10683/2005).
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION CHECK
(the plugg must be in an accessible place)
The stove is fitted with an electrical power cord for connection to a 230 V 50 Hz socket, preferably protected with a ther-
mal-magnetic circuit breaker. Voltage variations of greater than 10% may impair stove operation (if not already instal-
led, fit a suitable residual current circuit breaker). The electrical system must comply with the law; in particular make
sure the earth circuit is in working order. The power supply line must have a suitable cross-section for the equipment
rating.
FIRE SAFETY DISTANCES AND LOCATION
(fig. 4 p. 18)
For correct operation the stove must be level.
Check the load-bearing capacity of the floor.
The stove must be installed in compliance with the following safety conditions:
- minimum safety distance at the sides and back from medium-level flammable materials: 40 cm
- easily flammable materials must not be located less than 80 cm from the front of the stove
- if the stove is installed on a flammable floor, a sheet of heat insulating material must be placed between the stove
and the floor, which protrudes by at least 20 cm at the sides and 40 cm at the front.
If it is impossible to comply with the distances given above, technical/building measures must be taken to avoid all
fire risks.
If the smoke outlet pipe is connected to walls made of wood or other flammable materials, it must be insulated with
ceramic fibre or other materials with similar characteristics.

AIR INTAKE

The room where the stove is located must have an air intake with cross section of at least 80 cm2 to ensure replenishment
of the air consumed by combustion.
Alternatively, the stove air may be taken directly from outside through a 4 cm steel extension of the pipe. In this case,
there may be condensation problems and it is necessary to protect the air intake with a grille, which must have a free section
of at least 12 cm2. The pipe must be less than 1 metre long and have no bends.
It must end with a section at 90° facing downwards or be fitted with a wind guard.
SMOKE OUTLET
The stove must have its own smoke outlet (it must not discharge into flues shared with other devices).
The smoke leaves the stove through the 8 cm diameter pipe at the back.
A T-section with condensation trap and bleeder must be fitted at the beginning of the vertical section.
The stove smoke outlet must be connected with the outside using suitable steel pipes, without obstructions.
The pipe seals must be air-tight. Material that withstands up to 300°C (silicone or high temperature mastic) must be
used to seal and insulate the pipes (if necessary).
The horizontal sections may be up to 2 m long. It may have up to two 90° bends.
If the smoke outlet does not end in a flue, a vertical section with wind guard at the end is essential (refer to UNI
standard 10683/2005). The vertical duct section may be indoor or outdoor.
If the smoke duct is outdoor, it must be insulated.
If the smoke duct ends in a flue, the flue must be authorized for solid fuel. If it is more than 150 mm in diameter, it
must be renewed by inserting an internal pipe and sealing the smoke outlet from the brickwork.
All sections of the smoke duct must be inspectable. If it is fixed, cleaning inspection openings must be provided.
Possible installations are shown in figures 1 and 2 on p. 18.
