4 Installation
4.1 Important information
B Before installing, call the gas company and check the
standard relating to gas heaters and ventilation
requirements for rooms.
B Install a gas cut-off valve as close as possible to the
heater.
B After finishing the gas system, the pipes must be thor-
oughly cleaned and leak-tested; to avoid damaging
the gas valve by excess pressure, this test must be
performed with the gas valve of the heater closed.
B Check if the heater corresponds to the type of gas
provided.
B Check if the flow and pressure through the installed
reducer are appropriate for the consumption of the
heater (see technical data in the table 4).
4.2 Selection of the place of installation
Requirements regarding the place of installation
• Do not install the heater in rooms with a volume of
less than 8 m
3
(not including the volume of the furni-
ture providing this does not exceed 2 m
3
.
• Comply with the specific instructions for each coun-
try.
• Assemble the gas heater in a well-ventilated location
where it will not be exposed to temperatures below
zero and in a place where there is an evacuation pipe
for combustion gases.
• The gas heater must not be installed over a heat
source.
• To avoid corrosion, the combustion air must be free
from harmful substances. Examples of particularly
corrosive substances: halogenated hydrocarbons con-
tained in solvents, paints, glues, engine gases and var-
ious domestic detergents. If necessary, take adequate
measures.
• Respect the minimum installation clearances indi-
cated in Fig. 4.
• The heater must not be installed in locations where
the room temperature can reach 0 °C
In case of a frost risk:
B Turn off the heater.
B Remove the batteries.
B Turn off the heater.
B Purge the heater (see section 5.6).
Fig. 4 Minimum clearances
Combustion gases
• All gas heaters must be connected in a leak-roof man-
ner to a gas evacuation pipe of adequate dimensions.
• The flue must:
– vertical (reduced horizontal sections or no horizon-
tal sections at all)
– be thermally insulated
– have an exit above the maximum roof level
• A flexible or rigid pipe should be used, fit it inside the
flue socket. The external diameter of the pipe should
be slightly smaller than the dimension specified in the
appliances dimensions table.
Danger: Explosion
B Always turn off the gas cock before car-
rying out any work on components
which carry gas.
The gas installation, the connection of ex-
haust/supply pipes as well as the initial
startup are to be performed exclusively by
authorised gas fitters.
The heater can only be used in the coun-
tries indicated on the rating plate.
Danger: Make sure that all flue
connections are tighten sealed.
B Failure to follow this requirement may
cause dangerous exhaust gases to
enter living space which may result
causing personal injury or loss of life.
