All local and national laws and European standards must be
met when installing and using the appliance. In Italy, refer
to the UNI 10683 standard, as well as any regional or local
health authority regulations. If installing in an apartment
building, check with the management company first.
VERIFY COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER
DEVICES
The stove must NOT be installed in the same room with B type
gas heating equipment (i.e. gas boilers, stoves and equipment
with ventilation hood) since the stove could create a depression
in the room compromising the operation of this equipment or be
affected by it.
VERIFY THE POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION
(the plug must be accessible)
The stove is supplied with a power cable that is to be connected
to a 230V 50 Hz socket, preferably fitted with a magnetother-
mic switch. Voltage variations exceeding 10% can damage the
stove (unless already installed, an appropriate differential
switch must be fitted). The electrical system must comply with
the law; particularly verify the efficiency of the earthing system.
The power line must have a suitable cross-section for the sto-
ve's power. An inadequate earthing system can cause anomalies
for which Edilkamin cannot be held liable.
POSITIONING
The stove must be level for it to function correctly.
Verify the bearing capacity of the floor.
FIRE PREVENTION SAFETY DISTANCES
The stove must be installed in compliance with the following
safety conditions:
- medium flammability items must be kept at a minimum
distance of 20 cm from the sides and back of the stove
- highly flammable items must be kept at a minimum
distance of 80 cm if placed in front of the stove.
If it is not possible to comply with the above mentioned
distances, technical and construction-related provisions
must be taken to prevent fire hazards. If connected to wooden
walls or other flammable materials, the smoke exhaust pipe
must be appropriately insulated.
Distance from flammable material
Floor protection
AIR INTAKE
FORMA and TWIN are suited for installation even in houses
defined as "passive". In this case it is essential to draw the air
for the stove, connecting the nozzle on the rear of the stove
itself to the outside using an 8 cm diameter tube.
Make sure that the external air intake is positioned so that it
cannot be obstructed. In all other types of houses, FORMA
and TWIN can be installed in the conventional manner and;
therefore, also using air from the room (respect technical refe-
rence standards) It is a good idea to protect the air intake with
a screen; the intake must be at least 50 cm² in diameter.
INSTALLATION
The pipe must be less than 1 metre long and have no
bends. It must end with a section at 90° facing downwards
or be fitted with a wind guard.
SMOKE OUTLET
smoke outlet (the smoke cannot be discharged into a
smoke flue used by other devices).
The smoke is discharged through the 8 cm diameter outlet
at the back of the stove. The smoke outlet must be connec-
ted to outside by means of suitable steel pipes EN 1856 cer-
tified. The pipe must be hermetically sealed. The material
used to seal and if necessary insulate the pipes, must be resi-
stant to high temperatures (high temperature silicone or
mastic). The only horizontal section allowed may be up to
2 m long. It may have up to two 90° bends. If the outlet is
not fitted into a chimney flue, a vertical section and a wind
guard are required (reference UNI 10683). The vertical duct
can be internal or external. If the smoke channel is outside,
it must be appropriately insulated. If the smoke channel is
fitted inside a chimney flue, the latter must be suitable for
solid fuel. If it is wider than 150 mm in diameter it must be
improved by entering a pipe that has a suitable cross-section
and is made of suitable material (e.g. 80 mm diameter
steel). All sections of the smoke duct must be accessible for
inspection. The chimney pots and smoke ducts connected to
the solid fuel appliances must be cleaned once a year (veri-
fy whether a specific legislation exists in your country).
Failure to regularly inspect and clean the stove increases the
probability of a fire occurring in the chimney pot. In that
case, proceed as follows: Do not use water to extinguish the
fire; Empty the pellet hopper;Contact specialist personnel
before reigniting the stove.The stoves are not suited for use
with coaxial pipes for smoke evacuation and combustion air
intake, as this could enter the stove at temperature that is too
high. Coaxial tubes no longer than 3m in length may be
used. In any case, the stove stops if the air is too hot. The
stove is designed to work in all weather conditions. In the
event of special conditions, such as strong wind, safety
systems may intervene and switch off the stove. In this case,
do not operate the appliance while the safety devices are
disabled. If the problem persists, contact the Service Centre.
TYPICAL EXAMPLES
Fig. 1
CHIMNEY POT
The main characteristics are:
- an internal cross-section at the base, which is the same as that of
the chimney flue
- an outlet cross-section which is no smaller than twice that of the
chimney flue
- its position must be high enough to catch the wind and avoid
downdraft areas in turbulent wind..
