HEIGHT-DEPRESSION
The depression (draught) of a chimney flue depends also on its height. Check the depression with the
values provided at
FEATURES a pag. 87
. Minimum height 3,5 meters.

MAINTENANCE
• The chimney flue must be cleaned, since the soot and unburnt oil deposits reduce its section so blocking
the draught. In great quantities they can flare up.
• The fumes extraction pipes (fumes conduit + chimney flue + chimney pot) must always be cleaned,
scrubbed and checked by an expert stove-repairer, in compliance with current regulations, with the
instructions of the stove-manufacturer and the directives of your insurance company.
• In case of doubts, please follow the most restrictive regulations.
• Have your chimney flue and chimney pot checked and cleaned by an expert chimney sweep at least
once a week. The chimney sweep has to release a written declaration about the security of the system.
• Not cleaning compromise safety.

CHIMNEY POT
Fig. 5 - Anti-wind chimney pots
The chimney pot is important for the correct running of the heating appliance:
• We recommend using an anti-wind chimney pot, see
Fig. 5 a pag. 54
.
• The hole width for fumes exhaust must be the double of the chimney flue width and fitted in a way that
the fume exhaust is assured also in case of wind.
• It should prevent the infiltration of rain, snow and animals.
• The outlet height in the atmosphere must be away from the reflux area caused by the roof structure or
by obstacles laying nearby (see
Fig. 3 a pag. 53
).
