2. Installation instructions
2.1. Warning to the user
An incorrectly installed heating appliance can
cause serious accidents (chimney fires, burning of
plastic insulation materials, in partition walls, etc.).
The insulation of both the appliance and the
exhaust gas pipe has to be reinforced and built as
well as possible according to the norm to make sure of
the equipment operational reliability.
The installation must be carried out according to local
building regulations.
It is the installer’s responsibility to conform to local
building standards and requirements with regard to
installation.
The manufacturer’s responsibility shall be limited to the
supply of the equipment.
A remote acting fire valve must be fitted on the oil
supply line.
Flexible oil lines must not be used to make connections
between oil supply line and oil regulator valve.
2.2. Location of the unit
Ventilation :
For satisfactory operation with a natural draught,
check that sufficient air for combustion is available in
the room.
In houses equipped with mechanical ventilation, an
outside air intake of minimum 50 cm
2
must be installed.
Position of the unit :
For new installations, select a central position within the
house, to provide a good heat distribution around the
building.
The heat distribution towards the other rooms will be
made through the communicating doors. These rooms
must be in negative pressure or must include ventilation
gratings.
Floor and walls :
Make sure there are not combustible or covered with
combustible material.
Otherwise it must be necessary to install a
non-combustible protection.
Position the unit to comply with the minimum
clearances to combustible material (figure 4).
2.3. Chimney
The chimney must comply with Current Building
Regulations. If in doubt, consult your Dealer or local
Building Inspector.
The flue must be in good condition and must provide
sufficient draught. (refer to technical details page 3).
The flue must be suitable for the installation of fuel
burning appliances ; otherwise it must necessary to
install a tubing.
The flue must be clean. It should be swept to remove
soot and dislodge tar deposits.
The flue must be well insulated, water and air tight. A
chimney with a cold internal surface can prevent a good
chimney draught and condensation will occur.
The flue must be watertight.
The chimney must have a constant cross section.
The flue must not be shared with any other appliance.
The chimney must be at least 4.5 m (15 ft) high.
In case of a flat roof or when the roof gradient is lower
than 15°, the stack must be 1,2 m (4 feet) high at least.
The capping must not restrain the draught.
If the chimney has any downdraught tendency, due to
its position in relation to nearby obstacles, an
anti-downdraught cowl must be installed on the
chimney or the chimney height must be increased.
If the chimney draught is excessive or irregular, a
draught stabilizer (barometric damper) must be
installed to the connector pipe.
It must be distant from any combustible material (walls,
cross members)
It must permit an easy sweeping.
