Installation
Lining up the
smoke outlet and
the connecting
pipe
If the stove needs to be connected to a discharge pipe which goes through the rear wall (to
connect up with the flue), take the greatest care to make sure that the joint is not stressed. Use
the four adjustable feet (Fig. 3) to get the stove correctly levelled so that the smoke outlet is lined
up with the connecting pipe. If the smoke outlet of the stove is forced or used improperly to
lift it or position it, the operation of the stove can be damaged irreparably.
(Fig. 4)
Some typical examples of correct installation are illustrated below.
2.5 Connection to the flue
The flue of must have internal dimensions not
larger than 20x20 cm or diameter 20 cm. In the
case of a flue with larger dimensions or in poor
condition (e.g. cracks, poor insulation etc.), it is
advisable to line the flue with a stainless steel
pipe of suitable diameter for its entire length,
right up to the top (Fig 5).
Check with suitable instruments that there is a
minimum draught of 12 Pa.
At the bottom of the flue pipe, provide an
inspection cap to allow periodic checking and
cleaning, which must be done annually.
Make a gas-tight connection to the flue pipe,
using pipes and connectors as recommended
by us.
It is imperative that a windproof cowl should be
fitted which complies with the standards in
force (UNI 7129 - 7130 - 9615).
This type of connection ensures the
evacuation of the fumes even in the
event of a temporary power cut.
