2
per each 1 kW (859.64 kcal/h). The minimum opening section must in any case not be
below 100 cm
2
. The section may also be calculated using the following relation:
S = K * Q ≥ 100 cm
2
Where “S” is expressed in cm
2
, “Q” in kW, “K” = 6 cm

/kW
• The opening must be positioned in the lower part of an outer wall, preferably opposite to that in which the smoke evacuation duct
is located.
MINIMUM DISTANCES
