FUEL QUALITY.

Your boiler is designed to operate with wood pellets; however, it can also work with other biomass fuels (ask
your dealer about this). Many types of pellets are sold on the market, with very different quality levels. For this
reason, it is essential that they meet certain requirements: Ø = 6 mm, length ≥ 5 and ≤ 25mm, relative humidity ≤
10%, individual density ≥ 1200kg/m
The boiler efficiency may vary depending on the type of pellets you use.
ECOFOREST do not have any control on the quality of the pellets you use. For this reason, ECOFOREST cannot
guarantee the full output of your boiler nor the eventual premature aging or eventual damage of the gas outlet. It is
recommended to use ECOFOREST pellets which are approved as per European standard DIN 51731 and
distinguished by the logo of ECOFOREST printed on the 15kg bags.
If you use other biomass fuels, please note that the boiler's operating parameters and, in most cases, the
combustion grate, are not the same as those used for wood pellets. Before burning any fuel other than wood pellets,
consult your dealer on whether the desired type of fuel can be used, as well as the requirements it should meet,
and/or the type of grate necessary.

INSTALLATION.

The below security distances and assembly diagrams are given for information only as an adaptation shall be
made depending on the norms in force regarding gas outlet, power, security minimum distances specific to
geographic areas.
In order to get the best performance from your airtight stove, it must be installed in a room with positive
atmospheric pressure (minimum 5 pascals). Never make it work in depression (airtight rooms or without the due air
renovations).
The installation of the boilers must be done in the same way, for this reason, only the VAP30 model will be
exposed. In the same way, air inlets and water connections will be missed in all drawings as section 5.14 indicates
the minimum security distances to be respected for their installation.
5.1. Remove the packaging and the protective plastic.
5.2. Remove the screws or bolts that fasten the boiler to the pallet and remove it.
