3. Move the stove to the desired
installation site. The back part of the stove
should be positioned at least 15mm from
the wall.
2.3.5. Height adjustment and levelling the
appliance
The appliance must be perfectly level,
horizontally and vertically, both at the
front and on the sides (use a spirit level).
2.3.6. Connection to the flue
The appliance must be connected to the
chimney flue using special piping designed
to resist the products of combustion (e.g.
stainless steel, enamelled steel, etc.).
To connect the flue to the socket flange,
insert the piping inside the flange and seal
the joint with fire sealant or fire cement to
make it completely airtight.
The installer must ensure that the pipe
connected to the appliance is well secured
and there is no chance of it coming free
from its housing (e.g. as a result of
dilatation due to temperature, etc.).
2.4. Chimney flue
The chimney flue must comply with
present standards on the installation of
chimneys.
In rooms equipped with Controlled
Mechanical Ventilation, the ventilation
outlet must never be connected to the
flue.
The appliance must always have its own
chimney flue, never sharing a chimney flue
with another appliance.
2.4.1. Type of flue
The flue must be made of special
material designed to resist the products of
combustion (e.g. stainless steel, enamelled
steel, etc.).
Non-central-heating appliances
(without back boiler) require an insulated,
double-sleeve flue only on those sections
that run outdoors or through cold areas.
Single piping can be used inside the
building, the heat of the gases serving to
heat rooms, insulating only those sections
where excess temperature may cause
damage.
If the chimney is constructed, then it is
necessary to pipe and insulate it to ensure
correct updraught.
The diameter of the pipe must be the
same as the diameter of the flue socket on
the appliance over its entire length in order
to ensure correct operation.
The flue must prevent the entry of
rainwater.
The flue must be clean and airtight over
its entire length.
The flue must be at least 6m tall and the
chimney cap must not hinder the free
release of gases.
If the flue tends to suffer from
downdraught, then it is necessary to fit an
effective anti-downdraught cowl, a static
