INSTALLATION
GENERAL NOTES
All local and National laws and the European Standards
must be met in the installation and in the use of the
equipment. In Italy it is necessary to refer to Ministerial
Decree 37/2008 (formerly Law 46/90) and the UNI
10683 Standards.
In the case of installation in a multiple-tenancy building,
contact the building manager before installation.
VERIFY COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER
DEVICES
In Italy the stove MUST NOT be installed in the same
space or in communicating environments as type B
gas heating equipment (e.g. gas boilers, stoves, and
equipment served by an extraction hood - ref. UNI
10683 and 7129).
In general, the stove could create low pressure in the
room, affecting the operation of such appliances or
being affected by them.
VERIFYTHE POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION
(the plug must be accessible)
The stove is supplied with a power cable that is to be
connected to a 230V 50 Hz socket, preferably fitted
with a magnetothermic switch.
Voltage variations exceeding 10% can damage
the stove (unless already installed, an appropriate
differential switch must be fitted).
The electrical system must comply with the law;
particularly verify the efficiency of the earthing system.
The power line must have a suitable cross-section for
the stove’s power. An inadequate earthing system can
cause anomalies for which Italiana Camini cannot be
held liable.
One fuses (4 A) is inserted in the socket with switch,
located on the back of the stove.
AIR INTAKE (mandatory to do)
The room where the stove is located must have
an air intake with cross section of at least 80cm2
to ensurereplenishment of the air consumed by
combustion.
Alternatively, the stove air may be taken directly from
outside through a 4 cm steel extension of the pipe.
POSITIONING AND DISTANCES FOR FIRE
SAFETY
The stove must be installed in compliance with the
following safety conditions:
- minimum distance from flammable materials around
the sides and back of the stove: 10 cm
- flammable materials must not be placed less than 80
cm from the front of the stove.
If it is not possible to comply with the above-mentioned
distances, technical and construction-related
provisions must be taken to prevent fire hazards.
If connected to wooden walls or other flammable
materials, the smoke exhaust pipe must be insulated.

INSTALLATION
SMOKE OUTLET
The stove must have its own smoke outlet (the smoke
cannot be discharged into a smoke flue used by other
devices).
The smoke is discharged through the 8 cm diameter
outlet at the back of the stove.
The smoke outlet must be connected to outside by
means of suitable steel pipes EN 1856 certified.
The pipe must be hermetically sealed.
The only horizontal section allowed may be up to 2 m
long up to three 90° bends (in relation to the vertical).
A vertical section of at least 1.5 m and an anti-wind
terminal is necessary (if the discharge outlet is not in a
chimney flue - reference UNI 10683).
The vertical duct can be internal or external.
If the smoke channel is outside, it must be appropriately
insulated.
If the smoke channel is fitted inside a chimney flue, the
latter must be suitable for solid fuel.
If it is wider than 150 mm in diameter it must be
improved by entering a pipe that has a suitable cross-
section and is made of suitable material (e.g. 80 mm
diameter steel).
All sections of the smoke duct must be accessible for
inspection.
The chimney pots and smoke ducts connected to the
solid fuel appliances must be cleaned once a year
(verify whether a specific legislation exists in your
country).
Failure to regularly inspect and clean the stove
increases the probability of a fire occurring in the
chimney pot. In that case, proceed as follows:
Do not use water to extinguish the fire; Empty the pellet
hopper; Contact specialist personnel before reigniting
the stove.
The stove is designed to work under any weather
conditions. In case of particular conditions, such as
strong wind, the safety system may be activated,
which results in the stove being extinguished.
If this happens, do not operate the stove with the safety
devices disabled.
If the problem persists, contact our Technical Service
Department.
CHIMNEY POT
The main characteristics are:
- an internal cross-section at the base, which is the
same as that of the chimney flue
- an outlet cross-section which is no smaller than twice
that of the chimney flue
- its position must be high enough to catch the wind
and avoid downdraft areas in turbulent wind, it must
be high enough to catch the wind and avoid downdraft
areas in turbulent wind.
TYPICAL EXAMPLES
FIG. 1 FIG. 2 A: flue in insulated steel compliant with EN 1856
B: minimum height of 1.5 m and in any case above the
height of the roof gutter
C-E: air intake from inside room
(minimum internal section: 80 cm²)
D: steel flue, inside existing brick-built chimney.

INSTALLATION
PLUMBING
Plumbing depends on the type of system.
However, there are some “general rules”:
• Plumbing must be carried out by qualified
personnel.
• The hydraulic system must operate at a pressure
between 1 and 1.5-2 bars at running temperature
(hot) in a closed vessel circuit.
• N.B.: The boiler SHOULD NOT be installed in place
of, for example, an open vessel installed kitchen
range without adjusting the expansion system to
closed vessel.
• The presence of an accumulator (tank) is
recommended but not mandatory. Its advantage is
that it releases the boiler from “sudden” requests
from the system and can be integrated with other
heat sources. It reduces fuel consumption and
increases the efficiency of the system.
• The return temperature of water to the boiler stove
must be higher than 50-55° C to prevent the forming
of condensation.
• An accumulator (tank) is needed to heat low-
temperature radiant panels and must be installed
according to the panel manufacturer's instructions.
• The material used in the circuit must be suitable to
withstand overheating.
• Check that the plumbing is carried out properly and
is fitted with an expansion vessel that is sufficient to
ensure safety.
If the expansion tank is built into the boiler
stove, this does NOT ensure proper pro-
tection against the thermal expansion in-
curred by water in the entire system.
Therefore, installers should assess wheth-
er an additional expansion tank is needed,
depending on the type of system.
• The installer must determine whether or not to use
conditioned products. In Italy, refer to UNI 8065-1989
(Water treatment in heating systems for civil use).
• Direct plumbing to radiators prevents proper operation,
owing to the small diameter of their pipes.
•Thesafetyvalvebleedmustbereachableandvisible.
Waste water must be conveyed via a vertical pipe
through a funnel with backflow air vents, at a suitable
distance from the point of drainage.
This pipe must have the following characteristics:
- It must begin no more than 50 cm from the drainage
point of the valve and must be in the same room as the
appliance.
- It must be vertical for no less than 30 cm.
After this, the pipe can continue horizontally with a
slope that allows the flow of the water
- The pipe diameter should be at least one size larger
than the nominal size of the valve outlet.
- The end of the pipe must discharge into the sewage
system.
IT IS FORBIDDEN TO INTERCEPT THE DIS-
CHARGE.
PRESSURE GAUGE
placed on the boiler stove enables you to read the
water pressure in the boiler stove.
