ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
(this must be carried out by a Dealer)
Refer to local regulations in the country of use for anything
that is not specifi cally covered in this manual. In Italy, refer
to standard UNI 10683 in addition to any Regional or
Local Health Authority regulations.
If the boiler-stove is to be installed in a block of apartments,
consult the block administration before installing.
VERIFY COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER
DEVICES
The boiler-fi replace must NOT be installed in the same room
as extractors, type B heating appliances and other appliances
that may affect its operation.
VERIFYTHE POWER SUPPLY
CONNECTION
(the plug must be accessible)
The boiler-fi replace is supplied with a power cable that is to
be connected to a 230V 50 Hz socket, preferably fi tted with
a magnetothermic switch. Voltage variations exceeding 10%
can damage the boiler-fi replace (unless already installed, an
appropriate differential switch must be fi tted). The electrical
system must comply with the law; particularly verify the
effi ciency of the earthing system. The power line must have a
suitable cross-section for the boiler-stove's power.
An inadequate earthing system can cause anomalies for which
Edilkamin cannot be held liable.
FIRE SAFETY DISTANCES AND LOCATION
For correct operation the boiler-fi replace must be level. Check
the load-bearing capacity of the fl oor. The boiler-fi replace
must be installed in compliance with the following safety
conditions:
- minimum safety distance at the sides and back from medium
level fl ammable materials: 40 cm
- easily fl ammable materials must not be located less than 80
cm from the front of the boiler-stove
- if the boiler-fi replace is installed on a fl ammable fl oor, a
sheet of heat insulating material must be placed between the
boiler-stove andthe fl oor, which protrudes by at least 20 cm at
the sides and 40 cm at the front.
If it is impossible to comply with the distances given above,
technical/building measures must be taken to avoid all fi re
risks. In the event of contact with wooden walls or other fl am-
mable materials, you must insulate the smoke exhaust pipe
with ceramic fi bre or other similar material.
AIR INTAKE
The room of installation must have an external air inlet,
directly connected (via duct) to the special outlet provided on
the back of the boiler-fi replace.
The air inlet and duct must have a diameter of 40mm in order
to ensure the supply of the necessary amount of external air
for combustion.
If a duct for direct connection cannot be made, system stoppa-
ge may occur after the intervention of the fl ow sensor, caused
by a lack of combustion air.
This occurs because the heating air suction fan is located
close to the combustion air intake outlet and; therefore, could
interfere with the normal fl ow of the combustion air.
In this case it is preferable to move the combustion air uptake
point by applying a piece of tube on the outlet, preventing the
combustion air from being sucked up by the heating air fan.
The external air intake duct must end with a section that cur-
ves 90° downwards or with an anti-wind guard.
In this case, there may be condensation problems and it is ne-
cessary to protect the air intake with a grille, which must have
a freesection of at least 12 cm².
INSTALLATION
The external terminal of the air inlet channel must be protected
with an anti-insect netting that does not reduce the 12 cm²
through passage.
SMOKE OUTLET
The boiler-fi replace must have its own smoke outlet (the smoke
cannot be discharged into a smoke fl ue used by other devices).
The smoke is expelled from the 8 cm-diameter outlet on the lid.
A T-section with condensation trap and bleeder must be fi tted
at the beginning of the vertical section.
The smoke outlet must be connected to outside by means of
suitable steel pipes EN 1856 certifi ed.
The pipe must be hermetically sealed. The material used to seal
and if necessary insulate the pipes, must be resistant to high
temperatures (high temperature silicone or mastic).
The only horizontal section allowed may be up to 2 m long.
It may have up to two 90° bends.
If the outlet is not fi tted into a chimney fl ue, a vertical section
and a wind guard are required (reference UNI 10683).
The vertical duct can be internal or external.
If the smoke channel (part of the pipe that goes from the boiler-
fi replace to the chimney fl ue) is outside, it must be appropria-
tely insulated.
If the smoke channel is fi tted inside a chimney fl ue, the latter
must be suitable for solid fuel.
If it is wider than 150 mm in diameter it must be improved by
entering a pipe that has a suitable cross-section and is made of
suitable material (e.g. 80 mm diameter steel).
All sections of the smoke duct must be accessible for inspec-
tion. If it is not removable, it must have inspection holes to
allow for cleaning.
CHIMNEY POT
The main characteristics are:
- an internal cross-section at the base, which is the same as that
of the chimney fl ue
- an outlet cross-section which is no smaller than twice that of
the chimney fl ue
- its position must be high enough to catch the wind and avoid
downdraft areas in turbulent wind..
