5.2. Minimum distances
The following figure shows the minimum distances between the pellet boiler and
particularly inflammable surfaces.
On top of the boiler, it is necessary to maintain a minimum distance of 1 m from the
ceiling of the room especially if these contain inflammable material in their
composition.
We must respect this distance in order to have room to remove the
turbulators during maintenance.
The base on which the boiler rests cannot be made of combustible material (carpet,
wood, etc.) so there must always be adequate protection, as the boiler can exceed
60°C plus ambient temperature during operation.
