HEAT DISCHARGE VALVE (OPTIONAL)

Solid fuel thermo products must be installed with safety devices determined by laws in vigour.
For this reason the thermo stove are equipped with a heat discharge coil.
The heat discharge coil must have one side connected to the water network (Picture 3 A) and the other rot drainage
network(C). When the safety temperature is reached, the heat discharge valve, the bulb of which is to be connected
to attachment B, enables the intake of cold water in the boiler coil, discharging the excess heat out of pipe C towards
a conveniently installed drain.
Cooling circuit upstream pressure must be at least 1,5 bar.

SYSTEM CONNECTION AND FILLING

Some examples, purely indicative of the installation, are reported at chapter 1, while the connections to the
thermoproduct are reported at chapter 17.
ATTENTION: The filling of the system must take place exclusively by the natural fall of the water from the open
expansion tank through the feed pipe in order to avoid that a too high water system grid pressure could change
or cause the explosion of boiler body.
During this phase, open all the bleed valves of the radiators to prevent the formation of air sacks, checking the outlet
of water to avoid unpleasant floodings.
The watertight test of the installation is performed with the pressure of expansion tank open.
The installation must always be full of water even when the thermo-fireplace is not used. During winter
season the non use has to be faced by adding antifreeze substances.

FIRE PREVENTION

When installing the appliance, the following safety measures must be respected:
a) In front of the appliance, there must not be any object or construction material that is flammable or heat
sensitive situated less than 80 cm from the appliance;
b) If the appliance is installed on a floor that is not completely refractory, a fireproof base, for example a steel
platform, must be provided (dimensions according to regional regulations. (see Picture 4)
The ash drawer must always be inserted when the appliance is in operation.
The solid combustion residues (ashes) must be collected in a metal container that is hermetically sealed and fire
resistant. The appliance must never be lit in the presence of gaseous emissions or vapours (for example: glue for
linoleum, petrol, etc,). Do not place flammable materials in the vicinity of the appliance.
During the combustion, thermal air is emitted by involving the heating of areas, door and glass hearth, of the door
handles or controls, of the smokes pipe and, in case, of the front part of appliance. Avoid to touch those parts without
a protective clothing or without accessory tools (gloves resistant to heat, control devices).
Instruct the children to achieve those dangers and keep them out from hearth during its operation. touched.
When using the wrong fuel or one which is too damp, due to deposits present in the flue, a flue fire is possible.
Ensure children are aware of these dangers and keep them away from the furnace when it is on.

EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

If a fire breaks out in the chimney or in the flue:
a) Close the loading door.
b) Close the combustion air registers.
c) Extinguish the fire using carbon dioxide extinguishers (powdered CO
d) Call the FIRE BRIGADES immediately.
