CLOSED COMBUSTION SYSTEM
You should use the closed combustion system for the wood-burning stove if you live in a newly-built, airtight home.
External combustion air is connected through a ventilation pipe via the wall or floor.
It must be possible to shut off the ventilation pipe with a valve, when the stove is not in use. Minimum
Ø 100 mm ventilation pipe,
maximum length: 6 metres with a maximum of one bend. We recommend smooth steel pipes.
The connecting piece for fresh air inlet is delivered separately with the stove.
If you want external combustion air via a wall, remove the cover plate at the rear of the stove with a pair of cutting pliers.
NOTE: if the stove has a fresh air connexion or closed combustion,
the ventilation pipe must be open, when the stove is in use!
Remove the cover plate at the back of the stove or the
cover plate at the bottom of the wood compartment
store, as shown in "Fitting the flue connection piece in
the top outlet". Connect outside air to the connection
piece underneath the combustion chamber.
EXISTING CHIMNEY AND PRE-FABRICATED ELEMENT CHIMNEY
If you intend to connect your stove to an existing chimney, it makes sense to contact an authorised Scan dealer, or a local chim-
ney sweep, for advice. These experts will also let you know if your chimney needs renovating.
¬ When connecting a pre-fabricated element chimney, follow the manufacturer’s connection instructions for the
relevant chimney type.
CONNECTION BETWEEN BUILT-IN STOVE AND STEEL CHIMNEY
Your Scan dealer, or local chimney sweep, can advise you on choosing a make and type of steel chimney. This ensures that the
chimney will match your wood-burning stove.
REQUIREMENTS FOR CHIMNEY
The chimney must have a minimum internal diameter of 148 mm and have a T400 designation, with G for the soot fire test.
The requirements to the chimney and the flue pipe in terms of safety distances must be met.
¬ Choosing the wrong length or diameter of steel chimney could impair functionality.
¬ Always comply exactly with the instructions provided by the steel chimney supplier.
POSITIONING THE STOVE AT A NON-FLAMMABLE WALL
There are no demands concerning the distance to non-flammable materials, but we recommend a distance of 50 mm in order to
facilitate the cleaning of the stove, the flue pipes and the chimney and to prevent possible damages to the wall.
DISTANCE TO FURNITURE
Distance to furniture from glass: 1000 mm.
You should however assess whether furniture or other items might become excessively dry due to being too close to the stove.
