economical energies. For this reason, we have been engaged in the manufacture of
biomass heating systems and equipment for more than 45 years.
As a result of the persistence and unconditional support of its network of partners,
Solzaima is today a leader in the production of biomass heating, whose best example is
the water central heating recuperators and its range of pellet salamanders.
Every year we equip more than 20,000 homes with biomass heating solutions. A sign
that consumers are paying attention to the greenest and most economical solutions. Today,
wood is the most economical and sustainable way to heat your home.
Solzaima has ISO9001:2015 Quality certification and ISO14001:2015 Environmental

5. Materials of the recuperators
The interior of the combustion chamber of these recuperators is made of high-quality
carbon steel sheet with a thickness of 5 mm;
In the ECOFOGO ECO, MYTHO ECO and ACQUA ECO models, the door is made of 2.5
mm plate, in the ACQUA ECO PV and MYTHO ECO PV models with 3.0 mm. In the ZAIMA
ECO model, the door and rim are made of cast iron. The ash drawer on all models is
1.5mm. In the ACQUA ECO, ACQUA ECO PV, MYTHO ECO and MYTHO ECO PV models, the
door has a screen-printed glass-ceramic glass on the outside;
The models ECOFOGO ECO, MYTHO ECO, MYTHO ECO PV, ZAIMA ECO, ACQUA ECO
and ACQUA ECO PV have a heat-resistant glass-ceramic glass. This type of glass can
withstand temperatures of up to 750°C in continuous use;
The hydraulic connections are made of steel, 4 1" female bonds and 2 3/4" female
bonds;
The paint contains paint resistant to temperature peaks of up to 900°C, and to service
temperatures of about 600°C;
In the ECOFOGO ECO, MYTHO ECO, MYTHO ECO PV, ZAIMA ECO, ACQUA ECO and
ACQUA ECO PV models, the combustion chamber is coated with a heat-resistant material
(vermiculite). The lateral insulation, the back, the bottom of the deflectors are of
vermiculite, a material classified as a mineral of the hydro silicate group, resistant to
temperatures of about 1,100 °C. Due to its insulating characteristics, vermiculite allows
a better use of heat, an increase in temperature inside the chamber and cleaner
combustion (with a lower proportion of CO), as well as greater protection of the steel plate
from which the combustion chamber is made, thus prolonging the life of the recuperator;
The models ECOFOGO ECO, MYTHO ECO, MYTHO ECO PV, ZAIMA ECO, ACQUA ECO
and ACQUA ECO PV have a side cover, which allows the installation of an anti-packaging
kit (sold separately).
Installation instructions for this kit can be found in section 6.5 Installation of the anti-
packaging kit.

14
The anti-packaging kit is a mechanical safety system that prevents the equipment
from being damaged by an excess of temperature due to, for example: damaged pump,
electric current cut, etc.
The kit consists of a copper coil welded to a cap that is bolted to the body by replacing
the blind cap with 8 M8 screws. To ensure the tightness between the cap and the body, a
silicone joint is applied, which will ensure that no leaks occur. A thermal discharge valve
(not included in the kit) must be connected to the coil inlet and the outlet must be
connected to the sewer. When the water inside the body reaches a temperature higher
than 97 ± 3 °C, the valve opens the water supply network. As water circulates through
the coil, it absorbs excess heat from the water in the body, thereby reducing body
temperature. The water that has passed through the coil absorbing excess heat is directed
into the sewer.

6. Installation
Please note: all local regulations and standards must be complied with when installing this
equipment.
Check, immediately upon receipt, that the product is complete and in good condition.
If there is any defect or malfunction, do not install the equipment and request
the presence of the equipment supplier or a technician of the brand on site.
Check that the deflector plates are correctly placed and supported on the supports that
are welded to the sides of the body, see the following image to understand their correct
position;
Figure 13
If they are not properly applied or if it is necessary to put them back on, you should
proceed as follows:

16
- Insert the first deflector plate diagonally and place it on top of the upper brackets, place
it horizontally and lower it slowly so that the plate is centered between the side brackets
(red in the image) and leaning against the front of the body of the equipment
Figure 14
- Insert the second deflector plate in the same way as the first, up to the supports in red.
Place it in a horizontal position and slowly lower the plate so that it is centered between
the side supports (red in the image) and against the back of the combustion chamber.
