5. Installation
Read the manual carefully to ensure the correct and safe installation of the appliance.
5.1 Regulations
Ø
Install the fire according to the applicable European, national, local and construction (installation) regulations.
Ø
Follow the instructions as given in this manual.
Ø
DRU Verwarming provides no guarantee to cover installation and maintenance of the fire and is not responsible
for any resulting consequential damage.
5.2 Flue duct
The following requirements apply for the flue duct:
Ø
The flue duct must be inspected by a specialist beforehand.
Ø
The flue duct must be suitable for a woodburning appliance.
Ø
The fire must be connected to a single, one-piece flue duct.
Ø
The flue duct must be clean and leakproof.
Ø
For the flue duct use material that at least suffices with regard to EN 1856-1 T450.
Ø
For the fire pipe use material that at least suffices with regard to EN 1856-2 T600.
Ø
The offset in the flue duct may be a maximum of 1.5 metres with a minimum angle of 45 degrees from the
horizontal plane, providing the chimney draught is not too weak.
Ø
With a rear fire connection the horizontal part of the flue duct may be a maximum of 500 mm.
Ø
With a rear fire connection to a vertical flue duct a T-piece with soot bag must be used.
Ø
The diameter of the flue duct must be at least equal to the diameter of the flue gas discharge pipe from the fire.
Ø
The flue duct draught must be at least 12 Pascal.
Ø
Fit a flue ventilator if the draught is too weak or if mechanical ventilation in the home causes underpressure in the
installation space.
Ø
A flue gas regulator must be used in a duct with a (too) strong draught (30 - 40 Pa). The draught can then be
controlled. Your appliance can be fitted with a "restrictor cap" to slow any strong draughts (if applicable see
section 9 'Appliance-specific information').
Ø
When fitting a flexible pipe always use a double-walled stainless steel-design with a "smooth" interior.
Ø
A rain cap must be fitted on top of the flue duct to limit rusting and damage to the interior lining of the fire due to
moisture.
Ø
The flue duct must be self-supporting and may not rest on the fire.
5.3 Convection
When installing an appliance in a hollow chimney breast, it is necessary to create convection openings. If
applicable, open the convection openings on the appliance, as described in chapter 9 'Appliance specific
information'. If there are no convection openings on the appliance, you must create the required chimney breast
aeration and de-aeration yourself. For this, you should assume a minimum chimney breast de-aeration of 200
2
cm
side at least 30 cm below the ceiling and at least 180 cm above the floor.
28
(at the top side) and a minimum aeration of 200 cm
2
(at the bottom side). Place the de-aeration at the top
