2.3. WORKING ENVIRONMENT
For proper functioning and a good temperature distribution, the stove
should be positioned in a location where it is able to take in the air
necessary for combustion of the pellets (about 40 m 3 /h must be
available) ,as laid down in the standard governing the installation (UNI
- CIG 7129, 7131 and in accordance with national standards in effect).
The volume of the room must not be less than 30 m
3 .
The air must come in through permanent openings made in walls (in
proximity to the stove) which give onto the outside, with a minimum
cross-section area of 100 cm 2 .
These openings must be made in such a way that it is not possible for
them to be obstructed in any way.
Alternatively, the air may be drawn from rooms next door to the room
which needs ventilation, provided that these rooms have an air intake
from outdoors and are not used as bedrooms or bathrooms and
provided there is no fire risk such as there is for example in garages,
woodsheds, and storerooms.
It is not permissible to install the stove in bedrooms,
bathrooms or showers, and in a room where another
heating appliance is installed (fireplace, stove etc.)
which does not have its own independent air intake.
Locating the stove in a room with an explosive
atmosphere is prohibited.
The floor of the room where the stove is to be
installed must be strong enough to take its weight.
If the walls are not flammable, position the stove with a clearance to
the rear of at least 10 cm
In the case of walls made of flammable material, maintain a minimum
clearance to the rear of 20 cm, a clearance to the sides of 50 cm, and a
clearance to the front of 150 cm If the room contains objects which
are believed to be particularly delicate, such as hangings, sofas and
other furniture, their distance from the stove should be considerably
increased.
If there is wood flooring, place a floor protection
and adhere to national standards currently in effect.
