Packaging

When the chimney arrives, check:
•
that it is the model you ordered;
•
that it has not been damaged during shipping.
Any complaints must be reported to the deliveryman (also on the delivery note) upon receival.
Check the capacity of the floor before handling and positioning the chimney.
To handle the chimney in its packaging, follow the procedure below:
1 Position the pallet truck forks in the slots under the wooden pallet.
2 Lift slowly.
3 Place the chimney near the chosen location for installation.
The chimney always needs to be handled vertically. Take extra care to protect the door and its glass against
mechanical impact that could jeopardise their integrity

Set-ups for the smoke evacuation system

Be careful when building the smoke evacuation system and observe the regulations in force in the country where
the chimney is installed.
! IMPORTANT
Smoke ducts and fittings
The term smoke duct indicates all ducts that connect the combustion equipment to the chimney.
The following requirements need to be applied:
•
observe product standard EN 1856-2;
•
the horizontal sections must have a minimum slope of 3% upwards;
•
the length of the horizontal section must be as minimum as possible, and its projection on the horizontal plane must not exceed
2 metres;
•
changes in direction must not have an angle of more than 90° (45° bends are recommended);
•
the number of direction changes, including the one necessary for insertion into the chimney, must not exceed 3;
•
the cross section must have a constant diameter, the same from where it exits the firebox up to the fitting into the chimney;
•
it is forbidden to use flexible metal and fibre cement pipes;
•
smoke ducts must not cross rooms where the installation of combustion equipment is prohibited.
In any case, the smoke ducts must be sealed against combustion products and condensation, as well as insulated if they lead outside
of the installation room.
Installing manual draught adjustment devices is not allowed.
! IMPORTANT

Chimney

The chimney is a particularly important element for correct chimney operation.
The chimney must be sized so as to guarantee the draught declared by the Manufacturer.
Do not connect the chimney to a collective chimney.
.
The chimney must be built applying the following regulations:
•
it must observe product standard EN 1856-1;
•
it must be made of materials that are suitable to guarantee resistance against normal mechanical, chemical and thermal stress
and be correctly thermally insulated to limit the formation of condensation;
•
it must be mainly vertical and not feature any bottlenecks along its entire length;
•
it must be correctly spaced with an air gap and insulated from flammable materials;
•
there must be a maximum of 2 changes in direction and angles must not exceed 45°;
