INSTALLATION
6.2 AIR INTAKE
On the wall where the stove is located, provide
two external air intakes with a diameter of 14 cm
provided with an anti-insect grille.
The holes are to be made at a height below that
of the hearth.
The air intake (C) will be used to provide air to the
combustion chamber. Combustion chamber.
The air intake (V) will feed the heating circuit.
The intakes must be at least 50 cm apart to avoid
smoke from the replace form getting into the
heating circuit.
For connections that extend for more than one
metre, it is advisable to increase the diameter of
the duct for combustion air intake by 10% for each
additional metre in length.
6.2.1 Combustion air intake
The combustion air enters the stove compartment
from the air intake (C) and is drawn into the
combustion chamber through a duct located on the
rear part of the stove (Fig. 6.2)
Make sure that the air intake is located in a way
that it cannot be obstructed by accident.

If the wall behind of the stove is an outside wall,
make an opening for drawing in combustion air
around 20-30 cm above the oor, observing the
dimensions shown on the product data sheet at
the end of this booklet.

A permanent non-closable vent cover must be
placed on the outside of the opening; in especially
windy areas or places exposed to bad weather,
install rain and wind protection elements.
Make sure that the air vent is located in such a way
that it can't be accidentally obstructed.
If it's not possible to make a fresh air opening in
the wall behind the stove (not a perimeter wall),
an opening must be made on the wall in the room
where the stove is installed that faces the outside.
If no fresh air opening can be made in the room, it
can be made in an adjacent room as long as the
two rooms are connected by a ventilation grill (Fig.
6.2.1 - C = Shutter box, G = Grill, S = Shutters)
Standard UNI 10683 prohibits combustion air being
drawn in from garages, combustible material stores
C
or places where there is a re risk.
If there are other heating appliances in the same
room, the fresh air vents must guarantee the
required volume of air for correct operation of all
G
the appliances.
If one or more exhaust fans (range hoods) are
S
installed and operating in the room where the stove
is located, combustion problems may occur due to
a lack of combustion air.
