PREPARING THE PLACE OF 
INSTALLATION

5.1  

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The responsibility for any work done in the space where 
the cooker is to be installed is, and remains, the user’s. 
The user is also entrusted with carrying out the checks 
regarding the proposed installation solutions.

The user must comply with all the local, national and 
European rules and regulations.

The appliance must be installed on a floor with an 
adequate carrying capacity.

If the floor does not have a sufficient load-bearing 
capacity, it is advisable to use a load-distributing plate 
of an appropriate size.

Cooker assembly and dismantling instructions are for 
specialized technicians only.

It is always advisable for the user to call our assistance

• 

he must make sure that the area he is working in 
for assembling/dismantling the cooker is free from 
obstacles.

5.2  

COMBUSTION

There are many factors that contribute to good combustion 
in terms of heat performance and low emission of 
polluting substances (CO -  carbon monoxide).

Some of these factors depend on the cooker itself while 
others depend on the environmental and installation 

conditions and on the routine maintenance carried out.

Some important factors are:

• combustion 

air;

• 

Characteristics of the system for the removal of 
combustion by-products.

Some indications are given in the following paragraphs 
that should be complied with to achieve maximum cooker 
performance.

5.3 

FLUES AND CHIMNEY TOPS

The flue pipe for the discharge of smoke must be 
compliant with standards EN 10683, EN 1856-1-2, EN 
1857, EN 1443, EN 13384-1-3, EN 12391-1 both in terms 
of size and materials used to construct it.

steel with a circular cross section and smooth internal 
walls (Fig. 5.2.1). Flue cross-section should be kept 
constant for all its height. A minimum height of 3.5÷4 m 
is recommended (see Fig.5.2.2). Under the outlet of the 
smoke pipe there should be a chamber for gathering solid 
materials and any condensation.
