Operating area

For proper functioning and a good temperature 
distribution, the stove shoul be positioned 
in a location where it is able to take in the air 
necessary for combustion of the pellet (about 
40 m

3

/h must be available), as laid down in 

the standard governing the installation and in 
accordance with local national standards.
The volume of the room must not be less than 
30 m

3

. 

The air must come in through permanent 
openings made in walls (in proximity to the stove) 
which give onto the outside, with a minimum 
cross-section area of 100 cm

2

.  

These openings must be made in such a way 
that it is not possible for then to be obstructed 
in any way. Alternatively, the air can be taken 
from rooms adjacent to the one which needs 
ventilating, as long as they are provided with 
an air intake from the outside, and are not used 
as bedrooms or bathrooms, and provided there 
is no fire risk such as there is for example in 
garages, woodsheds, and storerooms, with 
particular reference to what is laid down in 
current standards. 

It is not permissible to install the 

thermostove in bedrooms, bath-

rooms, or in a room where another 

heating appliance is installed (fireplace, 

stove etc.) which does not have its own in-

dependent air intake. 

Locating the thermostove in a room with 

an explosive atmosphere is prohibited.

The floor of the room where the thermo-

stove is to be installed must be strong 

enough to take its weight. If walls are flam-

mable, maintain a minimum distance of 10 

cm at the rear (A), of 20 cm at the side (B) 

and 100 cm at the front. 

If the room contains objects which are be-

lieved to be particularly delicate, such as 

drapes, sofas and other furniture, their 

distance from the thermostove should be 

considerably increased.

It is not compulsory to connect the 

air intake directly with the stove 

(so that it draws air directly from 

outside), but it is essential at all 

events to ensure an airflow of 50 cubic 

metres per hour by the use of a hole of 

the dimensions given. See standard  UNI 

10683. 

In the presence of wood floors, 

install a floor protection surface in 

compliance with the rules in force 

in the country

Connection to the external air intake

It is essential that at least as much air must be 
able to flow into the room where the thermostove 
is installed as is required for proper combustion 
in the appliance and for the ventilation of 
the room.  This can be effected by means of 
permanent openings in the walls of the room to 
be ventilated, which give onto the outside, or by 
single or collective ventilation ducts.
For this purpose, on the external wall near 
the thermostove, a hole must be made with 
a minimum free cross-section of 100 cm

2

. 

(equivalent to a round hole of 12 cm diameter or 
a square hole 10x10 cm) protected by a grille on 
the inside and the outside.
The air intake must also: communicate directly 
with the room where the thermostove is installed 
be protected by a grille, metal mesh or suitable 
guard, as long as this does not reduce the area 
below the minimum. Be positioned in such a 
way as to be impossible to obstruct.
