INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Install the oven on surfaces with adequate load-bearing
capacity.
- Safety must be the first priority. When the oven is in
operation ensure that no other fuel and materials that may
be damaged by heat and sparks are close to it.
- The outer walls of Giotto may reach high temperatures
greater than 50°C.
- Position the oven so it is not in contact with the wall or
other furniture and make sure there is a gap of at least 5
cm alongside and behind the oven if you are using fireproof
materials, at least 20 cm if you do not use fire-resistant
materials.
- The upper part of the appliance can not be recessed and
must remain free from furniture that compromise the correct
EN
ventilation.
- The accessory works must not rest on the structure of the
oven.
- Do not move the oven while it is in use.
VENTILATION AND AERATION OF THE INSTALLATION
1. VENTILATION
The A1 appliances must be installed in well-ventilated areas
to prevent concentration of substances hazardous to health in
the room.
1.1 Natural ventilation
Natural ventilation can be obtained by using one or more
permanent openings on walls/windows/fixtures or through
ventilation ducts. The net area of the ventilation openings must
be no less than 6 cm2/kW with a minimum of 100 cm2; in the
presence of ventilation ducts, they must have a cross-section
of not less than 9 cm2/kW with a minimum of 150 cm2. The
ventilation apertures may be made in the walls, on the doors
or on the window systems of the room or the combustion air
room facing outwards; they can be obtained by increasing the
gap between doors facing outwards and the floor of the room or the combustion air room or they can be realized
on the fixtures facing outwards as long as the free air flow is guaranteed and the net cross-section is measurable.
The ventilation of the room can also be implemented by an individual or collective ventilation duct provided that
this pipework is impermeable to smoke and gas with neither change in direction nor sharp edges. In case of
indirect ventilation of the room where the gas appliance is installed, the circulation of air between adjacent rooms
may be ensured thanks to several air flow openings as long as each of them has a net cross-section area of not
less than 6 cm2/kW and provided that the sum of the net cross-sections of the openings is not less than the
calculated net useful cross-section of 6 cm2/kW. Such apertures can be made in the walls or in the doors of the
common walls or can be obtained by increasing the gap between the inner doors and the floor of the premises as
long as the free air flow is guaranteed and the net cross-section is measurable.
