IMPORTANT!

The fireplace stove must be installed and

assembled by qualified personnel.

The fireplace stove must be connected to a flue

pipe or other vertical smoke stack that can

discharge smoke at the highest point of the

house.

The fireplace stove must be connected to a flue

pipe or an internal or external vertical duct

conforming to current standards UNI 7129 - 7131

9615.

Smoke is generated from burning wood and,
therefore, may dirty adjacent or nearby walls.

Before positioning the fireplace stove, you must

make a hole for the intake of external air.

2.3. CONNECTION TO THE EXTERNAL AIR INTAKE

The room where the stove is installed must have at least as much air as

requested by normal combustion of the equipment and by room

ventilation. This may take place through permanent apertures in the

room walls that lead directly outdoors or ventilated rooms according to

UNI 10683 REV.
For this purpose, drill a hole with minimum 360 cm² free section near

the fireplace stove (22 cm diameter or a 20x18cm rectangle), protected

by an indoor and outdoor grille.
The air intake must also:

directly communicate with the installation room

be protected by a grill, made of metallic anti-insect mesh or a

suitable protection as long as it does not reduce the minimum

section.

be installed so as to avoid obstruction

for ducts, up to 3.5 linear metres, increase the section by about

5% while increased by 15% for larger measurements.

Remember that the ventilation grills always have a cm

2

useful section on one side. When selecting the grill and hole

dimension, make sure the useful grill section is greater than

or equal to the section required by MCZ for product

operations.
Connecting the air outlet directly to the fireplace stove is not

mandatory but the above mentioned section must guarantee

about 50 m³/h of air. See standard UNI 10683 REV.

IMPORTANT!
Air flow may also be obtained from a room adjacent

to the installation room as long as this flow is free

through

permanent

apertures

that

directly

communicate with the outdoors; avoid air outlets

connecting with heating units, garages, kitchens or

bathrooms.
