observe the technical data of the instructions manual;
Should the flues have a square or rectangular section, internal edges must be rounded with a radius not lower than 20
mm. For the rectangular section, the maximum ratio between the sides must be ≤ 1.5.

A too small section causes a decrease of the draught. It is suggested a minimum height of 4 m.
The following features are forbidden and therefore they endanger the good operation of the appliance: asbestos
cement, galvanized steel, rough and porous internal surfaces. Picture 4 gives some examples of execution.
The minimum section must be 4 dm
than 200 mm, or 6.25 dm
The draught created by the flue must be sufficient, but not excessive.
A too big flue section can feature a too big volume to be heated and consequently cause difficulties in the operation of
the appliance; to avoid this, tube the flue along its whole height. A too small section causes a decrease of the draught.
The flue must be properly spaced from any flammable materials or fuels through a proper insulation or an air
cavity. It is forbidden to let plant piping or air feeding channels pass in the same flue. Moreover, it is forbidden to
create movable or fixed openings on the same for the connection of further other appliances.

CHIMNEY CAP

The draught of the flue depends also on the suitability of the chimney cap.
Therefore, if it is handicraft constructed, the output section must be more than twice as big as the internal section of
the flue.
Should it be necessary to exceed the ridge of the roof, the chimney cap must assure the discharge also in case of
windy weather (Picture 5).
The chimney cap must meet the following requirements:
•
have internal section equivalent to that of the stack.
•
have a useful output section twice as big as the flue internal one.
•
be manufactured in such a way as to prevent the penetration of rain, snow, and any other foreign body in the
flue.
•
be easily checkable, for any possible maintenance and cleaning operation.

The right output section must
be at least twice as big as the
internal section of the flue
(ideal value: 2.5 times).
(1) In case of flues side by side, a chimney cap must be higher
than the other one of at least 50 cm in order to avoid pressure
transfers between the flues themselves.
