1.1 Single flueway or chimney - Fig. 2÷6
Every appliance must have a vertical flue pipe operating by natural
draught to discharge the combustion gases outdoors.
The flue must:
-comply with regulations in force in the place of installation of the
appliance;
-be tight to the products of combustion, waterproof, suitably insulated,
made with materials resistant to the corrosion of the gases and to
stress;
- be connected to just one stove, fireplace or extraction hood;
- be properly sized, with constant free internal section, equal to or
greater than the diameter of the flue pipe of the stove and at least 3.5
min length;
- be mainly in a vertical position with a deflection from the axis of no
more than 45° (Fig. 2);
- be at a suitable distance from combustible or flammable materials,
ensured by an air gap or suitable insulating material;
- be of uniform internal section, preferably round. Square or rectangu-
lar sections must have rounded corners with a radius of at least
20mm and a maximum ratio between the sides of 1.5 (Fig. 4). The
walls must be smooth if possible and without narrowing. Bends must
be regular and without discontinuity (Fig. 3 - 4 - 5).
It is forbidden to make fixed or mobile apertures on the flue
pipe to connect appliances other than the one to which it is
already connected.
It is forbidden to pass other air ducts or service pipes inside
the flue pipe, however large it is.
If the flue pipe is an incorrect size or installed other than in
compliance with the above instructions, Gruppo Piazzetta
S.p.A. cannot be held liable for malfunctioning of the product,
damage to property or injury to persons or animals.
1.2 Soot inspection - Fig. 1
-The flue must have a chamber for collecting solid matter and any
condensate located below the connection and which may be easily
inspected by means of an airtight door. (Fig.1)
- The bends connecting to the flue must have inspection points that
allowthe system to be checked, cleaned and maintained.

1.3 Chimney stack - Fig. 7 ÷ 11
The flue must be fitted at the top with a device called a chimney stack,
designed to aid dispersion of the products of combustion in the atmo-
sphere.
The chimney stack must comply with the following requirements:
-
itmust have an internal section and shape the same as the flue;
-
it must have a useful outlet section of not less than twice that of the flue;
-
the part of the flue that emerges from the roof or remains in contact with the
outside (e.g. in the case of an open loft), must be covered with brick or tile ele-
ments and in any case well insulated. It must be built in such a way as to pre-
vent the penetration of rain, snow and foreign matter into the flue and to ensu-
re that in the event of winds from all directions and angle, discharge of the
combustion products is assured (chimney stack with down-draught cowl);
-
any buildings or other obstacles that are higher than the chimney stack must
not be too close to the actual stack Fig.8 - Fig.9;
-
the chimney stack must be positioned in such a way as to ensure adequate
dispersion and dilution of the products of combustion and in any case outsi-
de the reflux area.The size and shape of this area differ according to the angle
of inclination of the roof and it is therefore necessary to adopt the minimum
heights shown in Fig.10;
Example: Check the slope of the roof (column
α
), and the anticipated
distance of the chimney stack from the axis of the ridge (column A), if
the distance is greater than “A”lthe height of the chimney stack may
be read in (column H); if the distance is less than “A”the chimney stack
must rise above the ridge by 0.5 metres.

1.4 Fresh air intake - Fig. 12÷15
The stove/fireplace must have the necessary air available to ensure
proper combustion.
- Make sure that the room in which the stove/fireplace is to be instal-
led has an air intake of at least the size indicated in the paragraph
“TECHNICAL DATA”.
-The fresh air intake may be protected by an external grille provided it
does not reduce the minimum section of the recommended airflow
and is in a position whereby it cannot be obstructed.
The air necessary for the fire may be obtained in different ways:
-Figure 12 through an external grille direct to the room of installation;
-Figure 13 with ducting through pipes direct to the room of installa-
tion, increasing the recommended minimum free cross section by at
least 15%;
-Figure 14 through a communicating hole from an adjacent room to
the place of installation: this system may only be used if the air flows
freely from the outside through fixed apertures;
-Figure 15 from an adjacent room to the place of installation, but only
if the air flows freely through apertures communicating with the out-
side.
1.5 Installation environment
The appliance should be installed in a location which allows safe and
convenient use as well as easy maintenance. If the product being
installed requires an electrical socket, the room must also be provided
with an earthed power supply in accordance with current regulations.
The installation of a wood-burning appliance in a bedroom,
bath or shower room or in any room where another heating
system not equipped with its own air supply (fireplace, stove
etc.) has already been installed is forbidden.
The room or rooms adjacent to that where the appliance is to be instal-
led must conform to the following requirements:
It must not be used as a car bay,a store for combustible mate-
rial, nor for any activity which carries a risk of fire.
It must not be pressurised relative to normal atmospheric pres-
sure as a result of the draught created by a prior installation of
an open fire or of an extractor system.
In the same location do not install two stoves, a stove and a fire-
place, a stove and a wood-burning range etc, since the draught
from one device can interfere with the draught from another.
- The use of equipment adapted for cooking food with non-extractor
hoods is permissible only in rooms to be used as kitchens.
-Equipment using gas type C is permitted (refer to regulations in force
in the place of installation).

English
Equipment using gas type B is not permitted (refer to regula-
tions in force in the place of installation).
Using the stove or flue simultaneously with shared ventilation
systems is not permitted, whether with or without extractor
fans. Similarly the use of other devices or equipment, such as
air-conditioning systems or other heating systems which use
fans to circulate air, is not permitted. These devices can cause
the atmosphere around the stove to become pressurised even
if installed in adjacent, communicating rooms.
1.6 Capacity load of the floor
Check the load-bearing capacity of the floor, referring to the weight of the
product given in the paragraph “TECHNICAL DATA”.
If the floor does not have a suitable load-bearing capacity, adequate coun-
termeasures must be taken, for example, by using a sheet metal plate to
distribute the load.
1.7 Heating capacity
Check the heating capacity of the appliance by comparing the rated power
given in the paragraph “TECHNICAL DATA” with the power required by the
environment to be heated.
The energy requirement may be calculated approximately by multiplying
the square metres of area by the height of the ceiling; the result is then
multiplied by a coefficient, which depends on the degree of insulation of
the building, that is, on internal and external factors of the dwelling:
a) Internal factors: type of window and door frames, thickness of the
insulation and walls, type of building materials, presence of stairwells,
walls with extensive glazing, high ceilings, position of the rooms to be
heated in relation to other adjacent heated or unheated rooms, …
b) External factors: geographical position, average outdoor temperatu-
re, exposure, wind speed, latitude, altitude, …
Example of approximate calculation of the energy requirement to
heat a fixed volume to 18/20° C:
The coefficient that is normally used is determined according to the real
conditions as they occur case by case.
-From 0.04 to 0.05 kW per cubic metre in a well insulated environment
- From 0.05 to 0.06 kW per cubic metre in a poorly insulated environ-
ment.
3 rooms measuring 20m2 X (H ceiling) 2.7m = 162 m3 (volume)
In an environment with a good degree of insulation, an average value
(coefficient) of 0.045 kW may be taken
162 (volume) X 0.045 (kW) = 7.3 kW necessary (6300 kcal/h)
Conversion 1kW = 860 kcal/h
Consult a heating technician or engineer for a correct check
and calculation of the requirement of the environments to be
heated (see “REFERENCE STANDARDS”).
Rated power being equal, products with the Multi-fire system
can evenly distribute heat throughout the rooms to be heated.

1.8 Minimum safety distances - Fig. 16÷18
With reference to the above diagram, the minimum safe distances from
heat sensitive or inflammable materials, such as load bearing and other
walls are:
A20 cm from the wall behind the stove
B60 cm from the side wall
C100 cm in the radiating area
In the case of flooring that is heat sensitive or inflammable the floor
should be protected (using for example sheets of steel plate, marble or
tiles).
The minimum distances are:
D50 cm;
E30 cm (measured from the internal corner of the door opening).
Keep any combustible product well away from the stove when it
is lit (minimum distance from the heat radiation area), for exam-
ple: wooden furniture, curtains, carpets, combustible liquids, etc.
1.9 Flue system - Fig. 19-20
The pellet stove is not the same as other stoves. The smoke is
propelled by a fan which keeps the combustion chamber pres-
surised and the entire flue system slightly pressurised. For this
reason the flue must be completely airtight and correctly instal-
led to ensure both trouble-free operation and user safety.
- The construction of the exhaust system must be undertaken by spe-
cialised personnel or firms, as outlined in the following pages.
-Installation of the flue should be completed in such a way as to gua-
rantee that periodic cleaning can be carried out without dismantling
the entire system.
- Pipes should always be sealed with silicone (not cement-based
sealants) or specially adapted washers which will retain their elastic
and resistant properties at high temepratures (250°C). These should
be attached with 3.9mm-diameter self-threading screws.
The installation of flaps or valves which might block the pas-
sage of the smoke is not permitted.
The installation of other devices (boilers, extractor hoods etc)
which might release fumes or vapours into the flue system is
not permitted.

Pipes and maximum usable lengths
Pipes of aluminium-clad painted steel (minimum thickness
1.5mm), stainless steel (Aisi 316) or enamelled steel (minimum
thickness 0.5mm) with a nominal diameter of 80 or 100mm (for
pipes which run inside the flue maximum diameter 150mm) can be
used.
The male-female connectors must have a minimum length of
50mm.
The diameter of the pipes used depends on the type of installation.
The stove was designed to take 80mm-diameter pipes but, as
shown in Table 1, in some cases the use of double-lined 100mm-
diameter pipes is recommended.
Losses associated with a 90° bend can be compared to those
incurred by one metre of pipe. An inspectable T-connector
can be considered equivalent to a 90° bend.
EXAMPLE: If installing a section greater than 4.5m in length with
80mm-diameter pipe, calculate the maximum usable length in the fol-
lowing ways:
-If in the section to be fitted a maximum of three 90° bends are used,
the maximum length of the section will be 4.5m.
- If in the section to be fitted a maximum of two 90° bends are used
and bearing in mind that a 90° bend can be replaced by one meter of
pipe, the maximum length of the section will be 4.5m+1m=5.5m.
-If in the section to be fitted a maximum of one 90°bend is used and
bearing in mind that a 90° bend can be replaced by one meter of
pipe, the maximum length of the section will be
4.5m+1m+1m=6.5m.
Where 100mm-diameter pipe must be used, connect it to the stove’s
exhaust outlet with a 80mm T-connector then use a 80mm-100mm
adaptor (not supplied by Piazzetta) (Fig 19).
T-connector
The use of this type of connector must allow for the collection of con-
densation mixed with suit which builds up inside the pipe. It must also
permit the periodic cleaning of the flue without the need to dismantle
the pipes.
This type of connctor can be bought at Piazzetta outlets together with
the pipes.
Outlined below is an example of a set-up which can be cleaned enti-
rely without the need to dismantle the pipes (Fig 20).

Connecting to a conventional chimney - Fig. 21-22
If you wish to use an existing chimney it is strongly recommended that
you have it checked by a professional chimney-sweep to ensure that it
is completely airtight. The reason for this is that the smoke, because it
is slightly pressurised, can infiltrate any cracks in the system and esca-
pe into living spaces. If upon inspection you find that the chimney is not
completely sound, it is recommended that you insert piping made of
new material. If the existing chimney is wide enough we recommend a
pipe with a maximum diameter of 150mm. It is also recommended that
you insulate the chimney flue (Fig. 21-22).
For connection to the chimney the use of Piazzetta’s own pipes and
bends is recommended - the stove’s outlet is the right size to connect
to these.
Other types of pipe can be used, provided that they are suitable or that
the compatibility of the connecting sleeve can be verified. Bear in mind
also that pipes and bends must be constructed according to existing
regulations. In such cases however Gruppo Piazzetta S.p.A guarantees
the proper functioning of the stove only where its own equipment has
been employed in accordance with its own instructions.
The connection to the flue system must respect the 40cm minimum
safety distance from objects which are sensitive to heat and from
inflammable materials (wooden veneers, beams or ceilings etc). (See
figures 17-18)
-If the connector has to pass through partitions or walls constructed
from inflammable or heat-sensitive materials, or through weight-bea-
ring walls, you must introduce:
an insulated barrier equal to or greater than 10cm around the con-
nector using a mineral-based insulating material (rock wool, ceramic
fibre) with a nominal density greater than 80kg/m3
- If the connector has to pass through partitions or walls construc-
ted from heat-resistant materials, you must introduce:
an insulated barrier equal to or greater than 5cm around the con-
nector using a mineral-based insulating material (rock wool, cera-
mic fibre) with a nominal density greater than 80kg/m3.
-Check that the connection to the flue system has been carried out so
as to guarantee that smoke will not leak from it under the equipmen-
t’s pressurised operating conditions.
- Check that the pipe does enter too far into the flue creating a narro-
wing of the exhaust passage. Figure 22-23
Ensure that all installation work is carried out to professio-
nal standards.

1.11 Using external flue ducts
You can use external flue ducts only when they correspond to the follo-
wing requirements:
- Use only insulated pipes (double-lined) in stainless steel attached to
the outside wall (Fig 23).
-At the base of the duct there must be an inspection hatch to permit
periodic checks and maintenance.
-The installation must be equipped with an windproof chimney and
respect the safety distance from the high point of the roof as outlined
in the chapter entitled “GENERAL RULES”, under “Chimney top”.
Ensure that all installation work is carried out to professional
standards.
1.12 Prevention of domestic fires
The product must be installed and used in compliance with the manu-
facturer’s instructions and European and national standards as well as
local regulations.
When a flue pipe passes through a wall or a ceiling, special
installation methods must be applied (protection, thermal
insulation, distances from heat-sensitive materials, etc.) See
the paragraph “Connection to the flueway”.
-It is also recommended that all elements made of combustible or
inflammable material, such as beams, wooden furniture, curtaining,
flammable liquids, etc. be kept outside the heat radiation range of the
stove and in any case at a distance of at least 1m from the heating
block.
- For other information, see the paragraph “Safety distances” and
“Connection to the flueway”.
- The flue pipe, chimney stack, chimney and fresh air intake must
always be free of obstructions, clean and checked periodically, that is,
at least twice during the seasonal period from the lighting of the stove
and during its use. When the stove has not been used for some time
it is advisable to carry out the checks mentioned above. For further
information, consult a chimneysweep.
-Only use recommended fuels (See paragraph “Fuels”).

3.0 FUEL
DT2010233-00
During operation, some parts of the stove (door, handle, display,
ceramic parts) can reach high temperatures. Therefore take due
precautions, above all in the presence of children, elderly and dis-
abled persons and pets.
In order to avoid accidents or damage to the product, the following
recommendations are made:
• Unpacking and installation must be carried out by at least two
people.
• Every operation involving movement of the product must be car-
ried out with the proper tools in full compliance with current safe-
ty regulations.
• The orientation of the packaged product must conform to the
directions given in the diagrams and notices on the package.
•If cables, straps or chains are used, ensure that they are able to
take the weight of the package and that they are in good condi-
tion.
• While moving the package use slow continuous movements to
avoid tearing cables, chains etc.
• To avoid toppling do not lean the package excessively.
• Do not stop in the path of loading/unloading equipment (cradles,
cranes etc).
4.0 BEFORE UNPACKING YOUR PRODUCT
DT2010074-00
The pellet stove has been designed to burn only wood in pellet form.
The wood pellet is obtained by pressing wood sawdust left over from the
working of natural dried wood. The typical small, cylindrical form is obtained
by a process similar to wire-drawing. Thanks to lignin, a natural element
which is released during the pressing of the raw material, the pellets acquire
a good consistency and compactness without requiring treatment with addi-
tives or caking agents.
There are various types of pellet on the market with qualities and char-
acteristics which vary depending on the processes they have under-
gone and the type of wood used in their production.
Since the pellet’s characteristics and quality affect to a consider-
ably degree the stove’s performance, productivity and proper
functioning we recommend that you USE high-quality pellets.
Gruppo Piazzetta S.p.A has tested and programmed its stoves and
can promise optimum performance and trouble-free functioning
using pellets with these specific characteristics:
• Material: wood
• Length: not greater than 30mm
• Diameter: 6-6.5mm
• Inferior heat energy: 5kWh/kg
• Humidity: not greater than 8%
• Residual ash: 0.34%
To assure trouble-free operation:
DO NOT use pellets with dimensions different to those stipulated by the
manufacturer.
DO NOT use pellets which are out of date or which contain loose saw-
dust, resins, chemical substances, additives or caking agents.
DO NOT use damp pellets.
Choosing pellets different to those stipulated:
- obstructs the burner and flue ducts
-increases fuel consumption
- reduces efficiency
- cannot guarantee the stove’s proper functioning
- causes dirt to build up on the glass
-leaves particles which have failed to burn and heavy cinders.
The presence of dampness in the pellets increases their volume and
causes them to split which in turn causes:
- malfunction of the fuel-loading system
- inefficient combustion.
Pellets should be stored in a sealed, dry place.
If you wish to use good-quality pellets with different dimensions and heat-
producing properties to those stipulated you will need to alter the operating
parameters of the stove. This “customisation” of the stove’s settings must
be carried out at one of Gruppo Piazzetta S.p.A.’s Centres for Technical
Assistance or by specially qualified personnel authorised by Gruppo
Piazzetta S.p.A.
Using out of date pellets or those which do not conform to the
manufacturer’s stipulations damages the stove and compro-
mises performance as well as can nullifying the guarantee
and excusing the manufacturer from his responsibilities.

5.0 INSTALLATION DT2010075-00
External pressure switch
• The stove is equipped with an external socket for measuring the
air pressure in the flue. This verifying and checking operation
should be carried out by authorised personnel whilst the stove is
being installed.
Covering
• Having carried out the assembly and the installation of the exter-
nal thermostat, proceed with the assembly of the stove’s cover.
For this operation refer to the booklet entitled Instructions man-
ual ceramic cladding provided with the stove.
5.1 Electrical connection and the temperature sensor - Fig. 24-25
•The stove comes equipped with a power cable which must be
connected to a 230v/50Hz supply. Connection to the rear of the
stove is illustrated in fig 25.
• The power rating is indicated in the section ‘technical character-
istics and data’ in this manual.
• According to law the installation must be earthed and include a
differential switch.
• Ensure that in its normal position the power cable does not come
into contact with any heated parts.
Ensure that the electrical socket is accessible after the
stove’s installation.
•At the same time as installing the stove, it is necessary to con-
nect the temperature sensor (provided) in the correct socket (fig
25). The sensor can be positioned as illustrated in fig 25, or
uncoil the narrow strip and place the sensor in a spot where a
more accurate room temperature reading can be obtained.

6.0 USE
DT2010080-01
• Do not use the stove as a cooker
•Ensure that the room in which the stove is installed is sufficient-
ly well ventilated.
• Ensure that all joints in the flue are hermetically sealed using a
silicone- (not cement-) based sealant which is resistant to tem-
peratures of up to 250ºC and which shows no sign of deteriora-
tion.
• Check (or have checked) regularly that the flue is clean.
• It is prohibited to use fuels other than pellets.
• Remove any deposits of unused pellets left by failed ignitions
before restarting the stove.
The removal of the protective grille inside the fuel tank is
strictly prohibited.
If replenishing the pellets while the stove is lit, ensure that
the bag does not come into contact with any hot surfaces.
Keep any inflammable object well away from the stove
while it is in use (MINIMUM 100 cm from the front panel).
While in use the door must remain closed and the glass
must be present and intact.
5.2 Installing the external thermostat - Fig. 24 - 26 - 27 - 28
• To connect the external thermostat use cable type 2x0.5mm 2
stopped with a PG7 connector to be inserted in the appropriate
socket in the rear panel (fig 24). This operation should be carried
out by authorised personnel.
Installation can be carried out with any type of thermostat
but requires connector PG7 similar to that shown in fig 26.
To connect the thermostat to the electronic board, refer to
the electrical diagram.
• To install, stop the thermostat cable with connector PG7 and
insert this in the socket at the rear (fig 25 ÷ 28). Finally connect

6.2 Startup
Before lighting the stove check that the burner is pushed back
towards the shield.
For the stove’s first ignition - also when it has been out of use for
some time - we recommend that you do not run the stove at full
power. For the first few days running at medium power is recom-
mended, to allow all components and mechanical parts a running
in period.
Upon first ignitions certain odours may be given off due to the
evaporation of paint or grease. To alleviate the problem merely air
the room, thus avoiding the prolonged exposure which may render
these emissions harmful to people or animals.
When the fuel tank is loaded for the first time the fuel-loading chute
has to fill up; during this period the pellets will not be fed into the
combustion chamber.

6.3 Startup and normal operation
Before proceeding with the ignition remember:
ensure that the furnace door is well closed;
• that the fuel tank is full or at least contains enough fuel to run for the desired period.
When the stove is connected to the power supply, but is not yet lit, the display will show the current time on its top half (example 12:30)
and the word OFF on its lower half.
STARTUP

• Phase three: STARTUP
-If the pilot light has triggered the combus-
tion process, the fuel-loading chute will
slow down to allow a period of stabilisation
and therefore a complete combustion of the
pellets in the subsequent operation.
- If during the startup phase the sensor on
the exhaust outlet shows an increase in
temperature (sign that the combustion
process is underway), the stove is consid-
ered to be lit and operating normally.
-If during the startup phase the sensor at the
exhaust outlet does NOT show an increase
in temperature (sign that the combustion
process is not underway), the stove should
be considered off; a new ignition cycle will
begin automatically and the three preceding
phases will be repeated in succession.
