Simultaneous operation of the extractor hood
with a heating appliance which is dependent on
ambient air
•
Heating appliances which are dependent on
ambient air, e.g. gas, oil, wood, or solid-fuel
heaters, instantaneous water heaters, hot water
boilers, hobs or ovens, and which draw
combustion air out of the installation room and
whose exhaust gases are conveyed to the
exterior by a flue.
RISK OF POISONING
If the extractor hood is operated at the same time as
a heating appliance which is dependent on ambient
air, there is a risk of poisoning due to combustion
gases being drawn back in.
