The Flue And Connection To The Same - klover WAVE 90 Instructions D'utilisation

CS.W110.IST-1 / Rev 1.3
The hole must be protected externally with a fixed grille. The protective grille must be checked periodically to ensure that it is not obstructed, thereby
hindering the flow of air. Keep all the air vents free of obstructions.
The UNI 10683 Standard FORBIDS the drawing of combustion air from garages, warehouses containing combustible materials, or from business
premises with a fire hazard.
Do not connect the external air vent directly to the appliance through piping. If there are other heating or extraction devices inside the room, the air
vents must guarantee a sufficient amount of air for properly operating all the devices.
Only sealed appliances (e.g. C-type gas appliances, according to the UNI 7129 Standard) or appliances that do not lower the room's pressure with
respect to the external environment can pre-exist or be installed in the room where the appliance is installed.
Extractor fans can cause malfunctions to the appliance if used in the same room.

The flue and connection to the same

The flue is an essential element for the efficient operation of the appliance. The flue must have a minimum cross-sectional area as that indicated in
the technical specifications of the appliance (80 mm). Each product must be equipped with its own flue, without other adjoining elements (boilers,
chimneys, stoves, etc.). The flue dimensions are closely related to its height, which must be measured from the appliance flue gas outlet to the base
of the stack. In order to guarantee adequate draught, the surface of the chimney flue outlet must be double the flue cross-section. The discharge pipe
for combustion products generated by the forced draught device, must comply with the following requirements:
- It must seal off the combustion gases, as well as being waterproof and suitably isolated and insulated in relation to the conditions of use (refer to
UNI 9615);
- It must be made of suitable materials capable of withstanding normal mechanical stress, heat, and the effects of combustion gases and
condensate, if any;
- It must go upwards after the vertical section, for the entire remaining part, with a minimum gradient of 5%. The sub-horizontal section must not
have a length greater than ¼ of the effective height H of the flue or chimney, and must not be longer than 2,000 mm;
- It must preferably have a round internal cross-section: square or rectangular cross-sections must have rounded corners with radius not inferior to
20 mm;
- It must have a constant, free and independent internal cross section;
- Rectangular cross-sections must have a maximum ratio of 1.5 between the sides;
- If the flue is installed externally, it must be insulated in order to prevent the flue gases from cooling and allowing condensation to form;
- Parts made from non-combustible materials (it is absolutely prohibited the use of aluminium flue) - capable of withstanding combustion gases
and potential condensation - must be used for mounting the flue gas pipes (for the section from the appliance to the flue inlet);
- It is forbidden to use fibre cement pipes to connect the appliance to the flue;
- Flue gas conduits must not pass through rooms in which the installation of combustion devices is prohibited;
- The flue gas conduits must be assembled in such a way as to guarantee adequate sealing of flue gases during low pressure operation of the
appliance;
- The installation of horizontal sections is prohibited;
- It is prohibited to use counter sloping elements;
- The flue gas pipe must allow for the recovery of soot or be cleanable, and must have a constant cross-section;
- It is forbidden to allow other air intake conduits and system pipes to transit inside the flue gas pipes, even if they are over-sized.
FURTHER SPECIFICATIONS TO BE CONSIDERED
- The appliance works with the combustion chamber in depression and the flue pipe in pressure; it is essential that the flue gas outlet is
hermetically sealed.
- The flue pipes inside the installation room must be made of a suitable material
minimum diameter of 80 mm.
- The pipes must have a double wall (thermally insulated) or be suitably insulated with rock wool. The maximum temperature of the flue pipe inside
the room must not exceed 70°C.
- IT IS MANDATORY TO HAVE AN INITIAL VERTICAL SECTION OF AT LEAST 1.5 MT IN ORDER TO GUARANTEE CORRECT FLUE GAS
DISCHARGE.
- Every direction change must be carried out with a T-shaped fitting and inspection cap. The tubes must be air tight through special seals which
resist up to 250° C. Attach the pipes to the wall with special collars to avoid any vibration.
- IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN TO INSTALL DRAUGHT REGULATION VALVES (BUTTERFLY VALVES).
