4. Connection of Multiple Devices in
Direct Vent Operation
When the Elvas is operated as a direct vent mod-
el, more than one device can be connected to the
chimney under the following conditions:
CAUTION!
Multiple appliances per chimney are per-
mitted in line with the applicable national
and regional regulations.
All connected fireplace stoves must be in
the same building unit or in the same ef-
fective area of the ventilation system.
The inlets for the combustion air ducts are
located in areas of equal pressure (same
pressure ratios), wind-induced pressure
fluctuations have to be avoided.
The inlets for the combustion air ducts are
located in areas of equal pressure (same

fluctuations have to be avoided.
NOTE!
In England (UK), according to the appli-
cable building regulations (The Building
Regulations 2010: Combustion applianc-
es and fuel storage systems, point 1.25),
each solid-fuel appliance is required to
have its own chimney.

Fuel Load Sizes and Thermal Output

The thermal output depends on the amount of fuel
you put in the stove. When adding more fuel, please
do not exceed the maximum fuel load size of 1,5 kg.
The fuel can be filled to the maximum height of 20
cm in the combustion chamber. Exceeding the max-
imum fuel load size leads to a danger of overheat-
ing, which can result in damage to the stove and the
risk of a stove fire.
NOTE!
To attain a thermal output of approx.
5 kW, burn wood logs that weigh a total
of 1,2 kg and are no longer than 20 cm in
length for about 45 min.
The Elvas is intended for intermittent operation,
please only apply one fuel layer at a time.

5.1 Wood Briquettes

You can also fuel your Elvas with wood briquettes
as specified in DIN 51731 Hb2 or of equal quality.
Please note that wood briquettes swell and expand
during combustion. As compared to the amount of
fuel when using logs, reduce the amount by approx.
10-20% based on the calorific value of the wood bri-
quettes. The control element settings and procedure
are the same as when burning logs.

Operating the Revolving Console

The Elvas has a maximum rotational angle of 120
degrees; you can adjust the rotational angle in
15-degree increments.
Unlock the rotary console by briefly pressing the
button A and then turn the Elvas to the desired po-
sition. Shortly before the final position is reached,
press the key A again and lock the stove into place
with a slight rotational movement.

WARNING!
Never turn stove when lighting fire!
In the whole rotational area range, the safe
distances (radiation area) apply to dis-
tances to flammable materials.
