GAS APPLIANCES
This appliance is not connected to a device to vent the combustion
products. It must therefore be installed and connected in conformity
with the installation standards in force.
Particular attention must be paid to the standards on ventilation
of the room.
VENTILATION OF ROOMS
Remember that this appliance can be installed and work in well-
ventilated rooms only, according to the standards in force, such
as to allow, with openings on the external walls or with special
ducts, a correct natural or forced ventilation ensuring permanently
and sufficiently both the entry of the air needed for correct
combustion and the removal of spent air.
In particular when there is only this gas appliance in the room,
there must be a hood over the appliance to ensure the natural and
direct removal of spent air, with a vertical straight duct of length
equal to at least twice the diameter and a minimum section of at
least 100 cm
2
.
For the indispensable entry of fresh air into the room there must
be a similar 100 cm
2
opening directly to the outside, situated at
a height near floor level so that it is not blocked either inside or
outside the wall and so as not to cause disturbances to correct
burners combustion and to the regular removal of spent air and
with a difference of height with respect to the outlet opening of at
least 180 cm.
Remember that the quantity of air necessary for combustion must
never be less than 2m
3
/h for each kW of power (see total power
in kW on the appliance data plate).
In all other cases, i.e. when there are other gas appliances in the
same room, or when natural direct ventilation is not possible and
natural indirect or forced ventilation must be installed, contact a
qualified specialist who will install and make the ventilation system,
scrupulously observing the regulations contained in the standards
in force.
The openings must be so positioned that there are no draughts
of air which cannot be tolerated by the occupants.
Moreover to eliminate combustion products, it is forbidden to use
flues already used by other appliances.
The appliance must be connected to the gas piping in a workmanlike
way and in conformity with the regulations in force which lay down
the installation of a safety valve at the end of the piping.
For butane and propane a pressure reducer conforming to the
standards in force may perform this task.
The seal gaskets must be in accordance with rules.
Once the gas appliance has been connected, check the connection
seal by means of soapy water.
The end of the attachment is threaded.
The possible connections are:
If the connecting tube must be passed behind the appliance,
observe the regulations of the picture, making sure in the last case
that the tube is kept in support A.
- by rigid pipe in iron or copper
- by flexible tube in stainless steel with continuing wall, with
mechanical connection in accordance with rules. The tube must
be directly connected to the manifold elbow (see Fig.34).
- by the insertion of a rubber tube in accordance with rules.
This tube must be connected directly on the push-on connector,
concerning the gas used, and it must be blocked with a band.
In the last case, check the tube's printed date of expiry and
replace it before this date.
WARNINGS
Concerning rubber flexible tubes (max. length 1500 mm), we
remember you:
1 - to avoid the tube to be narrowed or crushed
2 - do not submit it to traction or torsion efforts
3 - to avoid contact with sharp edges, etc...
4 - to avoid contact with parts reaching temperatures over 70°C
the ambient temperature
5 - to ensure that they can be checked for all their length.
