2.3. OPERATING AREA

For proper functioning and a good temperature distribution, the stove

should be positioned in a location where it is able to take in the air

necessary for combustion of the pellets (about 40 m

/h must be

available), as laid down in the standard governing the installation and

in accordance with local national standards.

The volume of the room must not be less than 30 m

The air must come in through permanent openings made in walls (in

proximity to the stove) which give onto the outside, with a minimum

cross-section area of 100 cm

. These openings must be made in such a

way that it is not possible for them to be obstructed in any way.

Alternatively, the air can be taken from rooms adjacent to the one

which needs ventilating, as long as they are provided with an air intake

from the outside, and are not used as bedrooms or bathrooms, and

provided there is no fire risk such as there is for example in garages,

woodsheds, and storerooms, with particular reference to what is laid

down in current standards.

It is not permissible to install the stove in bedrooms,

bathrooms, or in a room where another heating

appliance is installed (fireplace, stove etc.) which

does not have its own independent air intake.

Locating the stove in a room with an explosive

atmosphere is prohibited.

The floor of the room where the stove is to be

installed must be strong enough to take its weight.

In the case of flammable walls, keep a minimum distance to the rear

(A) of 5 cm, to the side (B) 5 cm, a minimum distance from the tube

to the wall (E) of 5 cm and to the front 150 cm.

If the room contains objects which are believed to be particularly

delicate, such as drapes, sofas and other furniture, their distance from

the stove should be considerably increased.

If the flooring is made of wood, provide a floor

protection surface in compliance with current

national standards.

2.4. CONNECTION TO THE EXTERNAL AIR INTAKE

It is essential that at least as much air must be able to flow into the

room where the stove is installed as is required for proper combustion

in the appliance and for the ventilation of the room. This can be

effected by means of permanent openings in the walls of the room to

be ventilated, which give onto the outside, or by single or collective

ventilation ducts.

For this purpose, on the external wall near the stove, a hole must be

made with a minimum free cross-section of 100 cm². (equivalent to a

round hole of 12 cm diameter or a square hole 10x10 cm), protected by

a grille on the inside and the outside.

The air intake must also:

 communicate directly with the room where the stove is installed

 be protected by a grille, metal mesh or suitable guard, as long as

this does not reduce the area below the minimum.

 be positioned in such a way as to be impossible to obstruct
