vENTILATION HOOD OR ADJACENT LOCAL
Our products are equipped with tangential fans suitable to improve the distribution of heat through the ventilation exclusively of the
installation room (see chapter sERIEs vENTILATION).
On our products, it is possible to install OPTIONAL ventilation kits (NO Inserto 50 - NO Inserto 80 High Pressure) suitable to improve the
distribution of heat by ventilation only either of the installation room or of the adjacent local.
The product can distribute heated air by natural convection or forced convection by means of a centrifugal fan (OPTIONAL); therefore, during
installation, it is necessary to establish the type of ventilation or convection to be adopted.
The covering of each product is equipped with 2 outputs with a diameter of 120 mm (12 cm) for the connection of pipes resistant to heat.
a)
Perform the drilling on the walls or on the existing hood to allow the passage and the application of the (fire-resistant) hoses with
related openings.
b)
Fasten the pipes by means of clamps to the related collars and openings, after having removed the semi-blanks caps (see
c)
Each pipe must not exceed 1.5 m of length for natural ventilation and 4 m for forced ventilation; it must be insulated with insulating
materials to avoid noise and dispersion of heat.
d)
The openings have to be positioned at a height not lower than 2 m from the floor to avoid that hot air at output meets people. Please
respect the distance of the convection openings according to the local construction norms;
e)
The lengths of the canalization pipes must have the same length to avoid the distribution of differing quantities of air from each
output (see
Picture
10).
f )
If the space between the upper part of the insert and the lower profile of the hood is lower than 10 cm, it is necessary to perform a hole
of about 30 x 40 cm on the hood to allow the fastening of the hoses;
g)
The OPTIONAL ventilation kit has to be installed below the appliance in the rear part (see instructions manual CONNECTION AND
MAINTENANCE OF VENTILATION OPTIONAL). As consequence you should arrange a underlying space to collocate it, allowing a proper
air flow and the accessibility for future maintenance.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The installation and the connection of the product has to be carried out by authorized personnel according to the current regulations
(see chapter GENERAL PRECAUTIONS). La NORDICA s.p.A. declines any responsibility for the product that has been modified without
written authorisation as well as for the use of non-original spare parts.
ATTENTION: do NOT place the electric cable nearby hot parts.
CONNECTION: Connect the electric cable to a bipolar switch with a distance of at least 3 mm between the contacts (Power source 230 V~ 50
Hz, the correct connection to the grounding system is necessary).
WARNINg: This operation must be carried out without power supply !!
WARNINg: The PRODUCT must be connected to the mains with a differential line cut-off switch according to the regulations in
force. Improper use relieves the manufacturer from each responsibility.
ALLOWED / NOT ALLOWED fUELs
Allowed fuels are logs. Use exclusively dry logs (max. content of water 20%). Maximum 3 logs should be loaded. The pieces of wood
should have a length of ca. 20-30 cm and a maximum circumference of 30-35 cm.
Compressed not worked-out wood briquettes must be used carefully to avoid overheating that may damage the device,
since these have a very high calorific value.
The wood used as fuel must have a humidity content lower than the 20% and must be stored in a dry place. Humid wood tends to burn
less easily, since it is necessary a greater quantity of energy to let the existing water evaporate. Moreover, humid content involves
the disadvantage that, when temperature decreases, the water condensates earlier in the hearth and therefore in the stack causing
a remarkable deposit of soot with following possible risk of fire of the same.
Fresh wood contains about 60% of H
It is necessary to place this wood in a dry and ventilated place (for example under a roofing) for at least two years before using it.
Besides others, it is not possible to burn: carbon, cuttings, waste of bark and panels, humid wood or wood treated with
paints, plastic materials; in this case, the warranty on the device becomes void.
Paper and cardboard must be used only to light the fire.
The combustion of waste is FORBIDDEN and would even damage the appliance and the flue, causing health damages and claims
by the neighborhood owing to the bad smell.
The wood is not a fuel which allows a continuous operation of the appliance, as consequence the heating all over the night is not
possible.
