2. INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS IN COMPLIANCE WITH UNI
10683
2.1. THE OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
For the correct functioning and an even distribution of heat, the stove
should be positioned where the air required for combustion is
accessible, in accordance with the installation instructions and the
applicable standards in force in the country of installation.
The volume of the room should be no less than 60 m
3
.
The air should enter through permanent apertures made in the walls
(near the stove) onto the outside with a minimum cross-section of 150
cm
2
(in the case of non-Oyster installation).
These apertures (air inlets) must be made in such a way as not to
obstruct them in any way.
Air may also be taken from adjoining rooms to the one to be ventilated,
provided they are equipped with an external air inlet and that they are
not used as a bedroom or bathroom or where there is no fire hazard,
such as: garages, timber storerooms, warehouses of flammable
materials, observing under all circumstances the provisions of all the
applicable standards in force.
If the floor is wood, lay the floor guard down, in
compliance with the applicable standards in
force in the country of installation.
If the walls are not flammable, position the
stove with a minimum rear clearance of at least
10 cm.
Extreme proximity between the stove and the
wall could cause overheating and damage the
plaster (yellowing, cracking, etc.)
Stove installation and assembly must be
performed by qualified staff.
The stove must be connected to a flue pipe or a
vertical duct that can discharge the smoke at the
highest point of the home.
The stove must be connected to a flue pipe or
internal or external vertical duct, in accordance
with the applicable standards in force.
The smoke does however result from combustion
of wood essences, and may therefore soil walls if
released in contact with or close to the latter.
Before positioning the stove, drill the hole for
the external air inlet (not in the case of
installation with Oyster technology).
