INSTALLATION
REMARKS ON INSTALLATION
Note that:
• installation must be carried out by authorised
technical personnel;
the appliance must be installed and operated in
compliance with local and national law and European
regulations. The Italian reference standard is UNI
10683; in France one must follow the instructions in the
DTA (Document Technique d’Application Référence
Avis Technique), www.cstb.fr
• if installed in a condominium, the appliance must
be approved by the administrator;
• if installed in public premises, check and follow
local regulations for this type of installation.
Here are a few general instructions, although these do
not obviate the need to comply with local regulations
and do not affect the installer’s liability for the
installation.
Remember that Rada Air Tight C is sealed, in other
words, if it is installed correctly with the air inlet pipe
connected to the outside, it takes the majority of the
air from the outside. For different countries, check if
there are particular installation conditions allowed for
sealed stoves.
Checking the suitability of the installation
space
• The room must have a volume of at least 30 m
3
• The floor must be able to bear the weight of the
product and its accessories* (see the note in the
paragraph on the heat protection)
• Level the appliance
• Pursuant to Standard 10683 rev. 2012 point 6.3, in
Italy you can also install the appliance in bedrooms
or in rooms which already include a product that
takes air from it for combustion, provided that the
air inlet is connected to the outside
• Do not install the product in spaces where there is
a risk of fire or explosion
• In Italy, check the compatibility pursuant to UNI
10683 and UNI 7129 in the presence of gas fired
products.
Protection from heat and safety clearances
The surfaces of the building adjacent to the product
must be protected against overheating.
The insulation to be used will depend on the type of
surface in question.
The appliance must be installed in accordance with
the following safety instructions:
- minimum clearance at the sides 15 cm and back of
10 cm from flammable materials
- no flammable materials may be kept closer to the
front of the appliance than 80 cm.
If connected to a wooden or otherwise flammable wall,
the flue must be appropriately insulated.
If installed on a flammable or combustible floor, or
which is not capable of bearing its load*, use steel or
glass plates under the stove to distribute the load.
Contact the retailer for this type of optional.
Positioning the product
The product is designed to operate in all climate
conditions. In special circumstances, such as strong
wind, the safety devices may intervene to switch the
appliance off.
Contact the authorised Edilkamin Technical Assistance
Centre.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE SMOKE
DISCHARGE WITH OR WITHOUT
CONCENTRIC PIPE
FLUE SYSTEM
(fumes duct, flue and chimney pot)
This chapter has been drawn up pursuant to European
regulations EN 13384, EN 1443, EN 1856 and EN
1457. The installer must observe both these and any
other local regulations. This manual does not in any
way substitute such regulations.
The product must be connected to a flue system which
ensures that the fumes produced by combustion are
expelled in complete safety.
Before positioning the appliance, the installer must
check that the flue is suitable.
FUMES DUCT, FLUE
The fumes duct (which connects the combustion
chamber smoke outlet with the flue) and the flue itself
must, among other regulatory requirements:
• receive the fumes from a single product (the outlets
of multiple appliances may not be conveyed into
ENGLISH
10
a single flue)
• be routed vertically for the most part
• have no downwards sloping sections
• preferably have a circular internal cross section, or
with a ratio of the sides of less than 1.5
• terminate at roof level with a proper chimney pot:
the flue may not discharge directly on the wall
or into an enclosed space, even if the space in
question is open to the sky
• be made of material with rated fire reaction class
A1 as per UNI EN 13501 or analogous national
regulations
• be certified, with a chimney plate if metal
• be of uniform cross section or vary in cross section
only immediately after the outlet, not at some
midpoint of its length.
THE FUMES DUCT
• Further to the general prescriptions for the fumes
duct and flue, the fumes duct:
• may not be made of flexible metal material
• must be insulated, if routed through unheated
areas or outdoors
• must not be routed through rooms where the
installation of combustion heat generators is
prohibited or there is risk of fire, or that cannot be
inspected
• must enable the recovery of soot and be open for
inspection
• must have a maximum of 3 bends with a maximum
angle of 90°
• if there is a horizontal section, it can have a
maximum length of no more than 3 metres,
depending on the draw. Note, in any case, that
long sections encourage the accumulation of dirt
and are harder to keep clean.
THE FLUE:
Further to the general prescriptions for the smoke duct
and flue, the flue:
• must only be used for discharging fumes
• must be correctly sized to satisfy the requirements
for fume discharging (EN 13384-1)
• should preferably be insulated, in steel with a
circular internal section. If rectangular, the corners
must have a radius of not less than 20 mm, with
aratio of the internal dimensions of <1.5
• must normally be at least 1.5 metres in vertical
length
• must have a constant cross section
• must be waterproof and thermally insulated to
ensure a good draw
• preferably provide a collection chamber for
unburnt residues and condensates
• if pre-existing, must be clean, to prevent fire
hazards
• in general, we recommend fitting a tube inside the
existing masonry chimney if its diameter is greater
than 150 mm.
INSTALLER
INSTALLATION
INTUBATED SYSTEM:
Further to the general prescriptions for the fumes duct
and flue, the intubated system:
• must operate in negative pressure;
• must be open to inspection;
• must observe local regulations.
THE CHIMNEY POT (In every country and specially
in France, check on the specific waiver conditions)
• must be anti-downdraught
• must have an internal cross section equivalent to
that of the flue and a fumes outlet at least double
that of the interior of the flue
• for dual flues (which should be spaced at least 2
m apart) the chimney pot receiving the fumes from
the solid fuel appliance or that from the higher
storey, must be at least 50 cm higher than the other
• it must extend beyond the back flow zone (in Italy,
refer to UNI 10683 point 6.5.8.)
• it must allow for maintenance of the chimney.
