2. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The chimney stoves of La Nordica are suitable to heat living spaces for some periods or to support an insufficient
centralized heating system. They are ideal for holiday apartments and weekend houses or as an auxiliary heating
system during the whole year. As fuel, it is possible to use wood logs.
The stove is made of sheets in galvanized steel, enamelled cast iron and thermo radiant ceramic.
The hearth is internally sheathed with single sheets in cast iron and inside it there is a turning and extractable grate;
the back side is extractable. Thanks to some calibrated holes made over that side, the supply of pre-heated air inside
hearth is guaranteed and having, in this way, a post-combustion which increases the yield and reduces gas output.
Inside it there is a turning and extractable grate. The hearth is equipped with a panoramic door with ceramic glass
(resistant up to 700 °C) This allows a wonderful view on the burning flames and avoids any possible output of sparks
and smoke.
The heating of the environment is made by:
•
Convection: (70%) the air passage through the double mantel of the stove releases heat into the environment;
•
Irradiation (30%): through the panoramic glass and the external hot surfaces of the stove, the heat is radiated
into the environment.
The stove is equipped with controls of primary and secondary air by which it
is adjusted the combustion air.
(see chapter 10).
2.1.
PRIMARY AIR CONTROL (movable valve)
With the primary air control (movable valve), which is found below the hearth
door it is adjusted the passage of air through the ash drawer and the grate in
the fuel direction (Picture 1 pos.A). The primary air is necessary for the
combustion process. The ash drawer must be regularly emptied, so that the
ash does not obstruct the primary air entry. Through the primary air the fire is
also kept alive.
During wood combustion, the register of primary air must be opened only for
a while, because otherwise the wood burns fast and the stove may overheat.
2.2.
SECONDARY AIR CONTROL
On the inferior part (Picture 1 pos. B) and on the over part (pos. C) of the
door there is the secondary air control. Also this register must be opened
(then moved to the right), especially for wood combustion.
3. RULES FOR INSTALLATION
The stove, assembled and ready for the installation, must be connected with a junction to the existing flue of the
house. The junction must be possibly short, straight, horizontal or positioned a little uphill. The connections must be
tight.
It is OBLIGATORY to respect the National and European rules, local regulations concerning building matter
and also fireproofs rules. Please apply to your chimney sweeper for all information.
You should verify the sufficient air entrance for the combustion in the installation place, with particular attention to
windows and doors with tight closing (seal ropes).
It is not allowed the connection of various appliances to the same chimney. The diameter of the opening for the
connection must correspond at least to the diameter of the smokes pipe. The opening should be equipped with a wall
connection for the reception of the exhaust pipe and a rose window.
Before installation, verify if your floor can support the weight of the stove (for ex. distributing weight plate).
LA NORDICA is not responsible in case of modification of the product and for the use of not original spare
parts. THE HEARTHS MUST NOT BE MODIFIED.
4. FIRE SAFETY
In the installation of the stove the following safety measures are to be followed:
a) In order to ensure sufficient thermal insulation, respect the minimum safety distance from objects or furnishing
components flammable and sensitive to heat (furniture, wood sheathings, fabrics. etc.) and from materials with
flammable structure (see Picture 2 - A). All the minimum safety distances are shown on the product data
plate and lower values must not be used.
b) in front of the chimney stove there must not be any flammable object or building material, sensitive to heat, at less
100 cm’s. of distance. This distance can be reduced to 40 cm’s if you will install in front of the element to protect
a retro ventilated and heat resistant protection.
