The connection pipe to the flue must be as short as possible, straight horizontal and positioned slightly in ascent, and watertight.
Connection must be carried out with stable and robust pipes (we recommend a thickness of 2 mm) and be hermetically secured to the flue.
The internal diameter of the connection pipe must correspond to the external diameter of the cooker flue gas exhaust stub pipe (DIN 1298).
ATTENTION: as far as concern the realisation of the flue connection and flammable materials please follow the requirements provided by
UNI 10683 standard. The flue must be properly spaced from any flammable materials or fuels through a proper insulation or an air cavity.
The chimney pressure (DRAUGHT) must be at least 12 Pa Pascal (=1.2 mm of water column). The measurement must always be carried
out when the appliance is hot (nominal calorific power). When the pressure exceeds 17 Pascal, it is necessary to reduce it through the
installation of an additional draught regulator (false air valve) on the exhaust pipe or in the chimney, according to the regulations in force.
For correct appliance operation, it is essential that sufficient air for combustion is introduced into the place of installation (see paragraph 7).
6.3.

CONNECTING A FIREPLACE OR OPEN HEARTH TO THE FLUE

The flue gas channel is the stretch of piping which connects the thermo-product to the flue. In the connection, these simple but extremely
important principles must be respected:
• under no circumstances use a flue gas channel with a diameter less than that of the exhaust clamp with which the thermo-product is
equipped;
• each metre of the horizontal stretch of the flue gas channel causes a slight loss of head which must be compensated if necessary by
elevating the flue;
• the horizontal stretch must never exceed 2 metres (UNI 10683);
• each bend of the flue gas channel slightly reduces the flue draught which must be compensated if necessary by elevating it suitably;
• The UNI 10683 – ITALY regulation requires that under no circumstances must there be more than 2 bends or variations in direction
including the intake into the flue.
If the user wishes to use the flue as a fireplace or open hearth, it is necessary to seal the hood below the entrance point of the flue gas

If the flue is then too big (e.g. 30x40cm or 40x50cm), it is necessary to intubate it with a stainless steel tube with a diameter of at least
200mm, pos. B, taking care to close the remaining spaces between the pipe and the flue immediately under the chimney pot pos. C.

7. ALLOWED / NOT ALLOWED FUELS

Allowed fuels are logs. Use exclusively dry logs (max. content of water 20%). Maximum 3 logs should be loaded. The pieces of wood
should have a length of ca. 20-30 cm and a maximum circumference of 30-35 cm.
Compressed not worked-out wood briquettes must be used carefully to avoid overheating that may damage the device, since
these have a very high calorific value.
The wood used as fuel must have a humidity content lower than the 20% and must be stored in a dry place. Humid wood tends to burn
less easily, since it is necessary a greater quantity of energy to let the existing water evaporate. Moreover, humid content involves
the disadvantage that, when temperature decreases, the water condensates earlier in the hearth and therefore in the stack causing a
remarkable deposit of soot with following possible risk of fire of the same.
Fresh wood contains about 60% of H
It is necessary to place this wood in a dry and ventilated place (for example under a roofing) for at least two years before using it.
Besides others, it is not possible to burn: carbon, cuttings, waste of bark and panels, humid wood or wood treated with paints,
plastic materials; in this case, the warranty on the device becomes void.
Paper and cardboard must be used only to light the fire.
The combustion of waste is FORBIDDEN and would even damage the appliance and the flue, causing health damages and claims by
the neighborhood owing to the bad smell. The wood is not a fuel which allows a continuous operation of the appliance, as consequence
the heating all over the night is not possible.
