•
The flue must be visible over its whole length
through a grille or inspection flap and be able to be
swept by mechanical means. Any expansion should
not adversely affect the smoke-tightness of the
joins at either end or its mechanical performance or
that of the smoke flue. lts design, and more
especially the connection between it and the smoke
flue, should be such as to prevent the accumulation
of soot, particularly when it is being swept.
•
Connections to the appliance and the flue should
strictly comply with DTU 24.2.2 and with the
specifications of the pipe ; they should include all
the recommended parts (end pieces and all other
fittings).
•
If the vent connector is horizontal, there must be an
ascending slope of 5 cm per metre.
4.4 – Draught conditions:
•
Draught is measured on the connecting pipe at a
point approximately 50 cm above the outlet on the
appliance.
•
The following draught is required for proper working
with the door closed :
- 6 Pa at reduced speed (0,6 mm WG)
-12 Pa at normal speed (1,2 mm WG)
As there is always some doubt as to any evaluation
of
the
possible
draught
characteristics, it is advisable to systematically
install a damper.
•
The regulator enables the appliance to work
properly, even under important draught conditions
(high ducts, casing). The regulator must be easily
visible, accessible (Fig. 4) and installed in the room
where the appliance has been placed.
•
The damper does not affect stove performance
when the door is open.
4.5 - Contribution of the necessary air for the
proper working of the appliance
Ventilation of the area in which the appliance is to
be installed
•
The appliance needs air in addition to the air
required by the statutory air change rate. This is
obligatory when the dwelling includes mechanical
ventilation.
•
The air intake should give directly to the outside or
should be located in an area ventilated to the
outside ; it should also be protected by a grille (see
advised layout Fig. 5).
A : FAVOURABLE
Face in prevailing wind, favour the flow of fresh
air and smokes.
B : UNFAVOURABLE
Face opposite prevailing wind.
depending
on
flue
•
The air supply exit must be located as close to the
appliance as possible. It must be able to be capped
when it emerges directly into the room. While the
appliance is working, make sure that it is free of
any obstruction.
•
The air intake section should be at least equal to
one-quarter of the section of the smoke flue with a
minimum of :
2
- 70 cm
for C077AA-B and C077AH-A
for use only with the doors closed.
•
It may be necessary to stop the extractor of the
mechanical ventilation so as to avoid smoke
coming back into the room when the door is
opened.
4.6 – Walls in the vicinity of the appliance
•
Place the stove at a distance of at least 300mm
from the back and side walls of the room and from
all combustible materials.
•
To protect the floor from heat radiation, and from
any possible falling fuel, put the appliance on a
reflective metal screen (or a tiled floor) covering the
entire surface of the floor beneath and in front of
the appliance.
•
The appliance must be installed on a floor with a
sufficient load-bearing capacity. If an existing
construction does not satisfy this prerequisite,
adequate measures must be taken (for example,
the installation of a load distribution plate) in order
to enable the floor to support the appliance.

USE
REQUIREMENTS
APPLIANCE
Your stove is a real heating appliance :
•
High output.
•
Slow speed running for a long period of time.
5.1 - First lighting
•
After the building of the fireplace and the setting up
of the appliance, a drying period of the materials
used for the work has to be respected (2 to 3
weeks).
•
Do not connect the stove to a pipe linked to several
appliances.
•
After the first lighting (see paragraph 5.4.1), make
a moderate fire in the first hours limiting the loading
in the appliance (a log of ∅ 15 cm) with the air
intake damper in an intermediate position (see
paragraph 5.4.2) : progressive rise in temperature
of all the elements of the fireplace and normal
expansion of the appliance.
•
During the first uses, a paint odor can come out
from the appliance : ventilate the room to limit this
inconvenience..
