EXCELLENT

POOR

VERY POOR

For square or rectangular-section chimneys, the internal corners must be rounded with a radius of no less than 20 mm. For a rectangular

section, the ratio between internal dimensions must be ≤1.5.

The sections/lengths of the chimneys shown in the technical data table are guidelines for a correct installation. Any alternative

configurations must be suitably sized in accordance with the general method of calculation of UNI EN13384-1.

It is recommended for the flue duct to be equipped with a chamber to collect solid materials beneath the opening of the smoke duct,

which can be easily opened and inspected through an airtight door.

Should doubts arise regarding chimney performance or if its dimensions are different from those recommended, you

are strongly advised to have an installer, authorised by the manufacturer, perform an inspection and evaluate the

performance of the chimney.

The manufacturer declines all liability regarding product malfunctioning if this is attributable to a chimney that is

badly sized and installation does not comply with the stipulated requirements.
