5.4 Combustion air
The stove, during its operation, draws
a quantity of air from the environment
in which it is placed (with the exception
of the products of the hermetic series
that can take it directly from the
outside); this air must be reintegrated
through an air intake outside the room
itself (Fig. 5.4a - PA = Air Intake).
Stoves of the "Non hermetic" series
Create the air intake on the wall,
leaving the stove free to draw air into
PA
the room.
If the rear wall of the stove is an
external wall, create a hole for suction
of the combustion air at a height of
approximately 20-30 cm from the
ground, respecting the dimensional
Fig. 5.4a
indications provided in the product
technical sheet at the end of the
manual.
A non-closable permanent aeration
grid must be placed external; in
areas that are particularly windy and
exposed to weathering, provide rain
and wind protection.
Make sure the air intake is positioned
so that it is not accidentally obstructed.
If it is impossible to create the external
air intake in the rear wall of the stove
C
(non-perimeter wall) a hole must be
created in an external wall of the room
where the stove is positioned.
S
G
If it is not possible to create the external
air intake in the room, an external
hole can be created in an adjacent
room provided it communicates
permanently with a transit grille. (fig.
5.4b - C = Box, G = Grille, S = Damper).
The UNI 10683 standard prohibits the
Fig. 5.4b
taking of combustion air from garages,
combustible material warehouses or
activities with the risk of fire.
