4.3 Flue pipe and chimney
The flue pipe is one of the key features for guaranteeing the proper functioning of the stove.
•
The stove is fitted with a Ø80mm round flue outlet and a joint connection to be connected to the flue
pipe.
•
You must be able to clean all the pipes and corners. T-fittings and inspection doors should be used
to make sure all parts of the flue pipe can be reached for cleaning purposes.
•
Use telescopic joint connections to connect the steel rigid flue pipe.
•
Seal the flue pipe joint connection with high temperature silicone sealant (1,000°C). Should the
existing flue opening not be perfectly perpendicular to the firebox flue outlet, use an elbow to connect
them. Inclination must never exceed 45°, with respect to the vertical axis. No constrictions.
•
The chimney must be insulated along its entire length. Thanks to the chimney insulation fume
temperature will remain high optimizing draft, preventing condensation and reducing build-up of
barely ignited particles along the flue pipe walls.
•
The flue pipe in the room can be uninsulated for maximum 200 cm.
•
The chimney must be weather-proof and as linear as possible.
•
The chimney flue must be CE marked according to EN1443.
•
The optimum combustion is achieved at a constant chimney draft of 10-14 Pascal (Pa) measured in
the flue pipe above the stove.
Flexible metal pipes may not be used.
