ATTENTION
sUrfACEs CAN BECOME VEry hOT!
ALWAys UsE PrOTECTIVE gLOVEs!
During combustion, thermal energy is released that signicantly increases the heat of surfaces, doors, handles, controls, glass, exhaust
pipes, and even the front of the appliance. Avoid contact with those elements if not wearing protective clothing (protective gloves
included). Make sure children are aware of the danger and keep them away from the stove during operation.

ENGLISH
INSTALLATION
SYSTEM REGULATIONS
FOR GERMANY ONLY
Before installing the boiler, it is necessary to obtain the approval of the main district chimney sweep authorised to submit a chimney calculation.
The appliance must be installed in closed heating systems, that have been installed in accordance with current regulations and with the
current state of the art.
NOTES ON THE INSTALLATION ROOM
The installation room must:
- Comply with local re regulations and building regulations.
- Be frost-proof
- Ensure the minimum distances of combustible materials from the boiler wall
Moreover, a sucient supply of fresh air must be guaranteed in the room.
European, national and local installation regulations must be complied with. The combustion air can be supplied through openings to the
outside or, in accordance with safety and installation regulations, from adjacent rooms.
The openings to the outside must be protected against the elements and against the entry of birds or rodents.
The maximum vacuum must not exceed 4Pa in the combustion air inlet system (if present).
If the combustion air is introduced through an opening in the outer wall, a pressure dierence of 3 Pa must not be exceeded.
The minimum opening for the combustion air inlet must be at least 100 cm².
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE HEATING WATER
The heating water must meet the requirements of current hydronic safety regulations.
The LNK-EVO log gasication boiler must operate with an anti-condensation valve.
This means that a minimum return temperature of 60°C must be guaranteed to prevent condensation.
IF THE BOILER IS OPERATED WITHOUT AN ANTI-CONDENSATION VALVE, IT MAY BE SERIOUSLY
DAMAGED!
For LNK-EVO type boilers, a storage tank must be installed.
Check the European, national and local regulations for the size of the storage tank.
The manufacturer recommends the minimum storage tank volumes indicated in the following table:
LNK 15 EVO 1000 L
LNK 20 EVO 1200 L
LNK 30 EVO 1600 L
LNK 40 EVO 2100 L
FIRE PROTECTION FOR INSTALLATION AND USE OF THERMAL DEVICES
WARNING IN SITUATIONS WHERE GASES, OR FLAMMABLE VAPOURS MAY BE PRESENT,
AND IN THE PRESENCE OF WORKS WITH A TEMPORARY RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION
(INSTALLATION OF LINOLEUM WITH GLUE, PVC, ETC.), THE BOILERS MUST BE PUT
IN A SAFE CONDITION (SWITCHED OFF AND COOLED DOWN) BEFORE THE DANGER
ARISES. OBJECTS MADE OF FLAMMABLE MATERIAL MUST NOT BE PLACED ON THE
BOILER OR CLOSER THAN THE SAFETY DISTANCE.

ENGLISH
CHIMNEY FLUE
The sizing, installation and connection of the chimney ue to the boiler must be carried out by an authorised company of master
chimney sweepers according to European, national and local regulations.
The ue must develop a sucient draught to convey and transport combustion smoke outdoors at all operating speeds. It is important to
have an adequately sized self-sucient ue for the boiler to operate correctly.

TO STABILISE THE DRAUGHT IN THE FLUE, IT IS NECESSARY TO INSTALL AN ADDITIONAL AUTOMATIC DRAUGHT REGULATOR
ON THE FLUE PIPE OR IN THE CHIMNEY.
THE QUALITY OF COMBUSTION, THE HEAT OUTPUT AND THE SERVICE LIFE OF THE BOILER DEPEND ON THE DRAUGHT. Fireplace
draught is directly proportional to the diameter, height and coarseness of the internal wall. Smoke from another appliance must not ow into
the ue connected to the boiler.
WARNING:AS REGARDS THE CONNECTION TO THE CHIMNEY FLUE AND FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, REFER TO THE European,
national and local regulations.THE FLUE MUST BE AT A SUITABLE DISTANCE FROM FLAMMABLE OR COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
BY MEANS OF ADEQUATE INSULATION OR AN AIR GAP.
SMOKE DUCT
THE HEAT GENERATOR OPERATES WITH NEGATIVE PRESSURE AND IS EQUIPPED WITH AN OUTPUT FAN FOR SMOKE EXTRACTION. THE
GENERATOR MUST ONLY HAVE ONE DISCHARGE SYSTEM. IT IS NOT PERMITTED TO HAVE A FLUE THAT IS SHARED WITH OTHER DEVICES.
Components of the smoke extraction system must be selected based on the type of device to install and according to:
• UNI/ TS 11278 in the case of metal replaces, with special reference to the designation.
• UNI EN 13063-1 and UNI EN 13063-2, UNI EN 1457, .-UNI EN 1806: in the case of non-metal replaces.
• The smoke duct must be as short as possible.
• A T-tting must be installed with a condensation collection cap at the bottom of the vertical section. The vertical duct can either be
inside or outside the building. If the smoke duct is installed inside an existing ue, it must be certied for solid combustion.
• If the smoke duct is outside the building, it must always be insulated.
• It must be possible to inspect all sections of the smoke duct.
• Inspection openings must be provided for cleaning.
IT IS MANDATORY TO PROVIDE A“T” FITTING WITH A CONDENSATE COLLECTION CAP
AT THE BASE OF THE VERTICAL SECTION SMOKE SUCTION FAN OUTLET.
CONNECTION MUST BE CARRIED OUT WITH STABLE, STURDY PIPES THAT COMPLY WITH ALL STANDARDS AND REGULATIONS IN FORCE
AND ACCORDING TO THE PROVISIONS OF LAW, AND SECURED WELL TO THE FLUE.
THE INTERNAL DIAMETER OF THE CONNECTION PIPE MUST CORRESPOND TO THE EXTERNAL DIAMETER OF THE SMOKE OUTLET
OF THE APPLIANCE.
CHIMNEY POT
Flue draught also depends on the suitability of the chimney pot.
CHIMNEY POTS MUST MEET THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS:
• Have a useful output section of more than double the length of the replace/pipe system into which it is inserted
• Be constructed in such a way that rain and snow cannot penetrate into the replace/pipe system
• Be constructed in such a way that even in the case of winds from all directions and with any inclination, the evacuation of combustion
products (windshield terminal) is ensured.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE REQUIREMENTS WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY
