DIVA SLIM PELLET BOILER STOVE
11
The unit must be installed on a floor with a suitable load capacity. If the existing building does not fulfil this requirement
appropriate measures (e.g. load distribution plate) must be taken.
The minimum safety distance from flammable materials must be at least 200 mm from the sides and back of the
appliance, 800 mm from the front and 750 mm from the upper part.
The installation must guarantee easy access for cleaning the appliance, the flue gas exhaust pipes and the flue, and any
subsequent maintenance operation by the Authorised technical assistance centre.
Once you have found the best location for the appliance, position it following the instructions given below.
The appliance must not be installed in small rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms or in areas with an explosive atmosphere
(e.g. garages).
Spaces around and above the appliance
The figure below shows the minimum distances from walls or other not-easily-removable furniture, that need to be taken
into consideration when positioning the appliance.
Any shelves or false ceilings mounted above the appliance must be at least 75 cm away from the top part of it.
Furniture and movable objects made from flammable materials must be positioned at least 20 cm from the side surfaces
of the appliance; these objects must be moved when performing maintenance on the appliance.
Protect all structures that can catch fire against the radiated heat of the fire.
Any extra intervention by the Authorised technical assistance centre, which requires the appliance to be
disconnected from the system, will not be covered under warranty as described in the chapter “Standard
Warranty Conditions”.
External air intake
During operation, the appliance takes in air from the environment in which it is installed; It is therefore essential that this
air is replaced through an external air vent. The absence of the air vent may affect the flue draught and therefore the
combustion and the safety of the appliance.
Therefore it is mandatory to install an external air vent with a minimum completely free passage of at least 80 cm
2
(round hole with minimum diameter of 15 cm protected with a special fixed large mesh grille).
If it not possible to put the external air vent in the same room as where the appliance is installed, this hole can be made
in an adjoining room as long as this room communicates permanently, by means of a transit hole (15 cm minimum
diameter).
The hole must be protected externally with a fixed grille. The protective grille must be checked periodically to ensure that
it is not obstructed, thereby impeding the passage of air. Therefore keep the air vents clear of obstructions.
The UNI 10683 Standard FORBIDS the drawing of combustion air from garages, warehouses storing combustible
materials, or from business premises with a fire hazard.
