The heating devices (in this instruction manual they are called „stoves“) from the company ALFA PLAM (in
this instruction manual referred as ALFA PLAM) are designed and tested in accordance with the safety
measures of the valid regulations of the European Community.
This instruction manual is intended for the stove users, the technicians who install the stove, the operators
and workers for maintenance of the stove who are shown on the front (cover) page of the instruction
manual.
If there is something in this instruction manual that is difficult for you to understand, we kindly ask you to
contact the manufacturer of the stove or an authorized service center. In doing so, indicate the number of
paragraph i.e. the chapter in question, i.e. the subject of something unclear.
Printing, translation and reproduction, even partial, of this instruction manual is subject of permit by ALFA PLAM,
meaning that the company ALFA PLAM must approve the indicated actions. Technical information, figures and
specifications in this instruction manual must not be given to any third entity.
DOUBLE COMBUSTION SYSTEM
The flame obtained by wood combustion in the stove, emits the same quantities of carbon dioxide (CO
2
) which
would be released as a result of natural wood decay.
The quantity of carbon dioxide (CO
2
) obtained by combustion or decomposition of the biomass corresponds to the
quantity of carbon dioxide (CO
2
) that the biomass is able to receive from the environment and to turn it into oxygen
for air and carbon of plants during its entire lifetime.
The use of non-renewable fossil fuels (coal, oil, gas), contrary to what happens with wood, releases in the
atmosphere huge quantities of carbon dioxide (CO
2
) which has been accumulated during millions of years, thus
creating the effect of a greenhouse. For this reason, the use of wood as fuel is in perfect balance with the
environment, because wood as a renewable fuel is in ecological harmony with the nature.
These goals are entirely achieved with principle of pure combustion, so for this reason the company ALFA PLAM
has founded the design of its products on that basis.
What do we mean by clean combustion and how does it happen?
The regulation and setting of primary air and insertion of secondary air creates i.e. causes secondary combustion,
or so called post-combustion, which gives secondary flame which according to its nature is lighter and stronger than
the basic or primary flame. The addition of new oxygen (through inserted air) enables additional combustion of
gases which have not burned entirely. This significantly increases the thermal performance and reduces harmful
emission of carbon monooxide (CO), because the incomplete combustion is based on minimum. The following are
the basic characteristics of the stove and the remaining products of the company ALFA PLAM.
