WARNING
When the hood is operated in exhaust-air mode simultaneously
with a different burner which also makes use of the same chimney
(such as gas, oil or coal-fired heaters, continuous-flow heaters,
hot-water boilers) care must be taken to ensure that there is an
adequate supply of fresh air which will be needed by the burner for
combustion.
Safe operation is possible provided that the under pressure in the
room where the burner is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04
mbar).
This can be achieved if combustion air can flow through non-
lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and via the air-intake/
exhaust-air wall box or by other technical measures, such as
reciprocal interlocking, etc.
WARNING
Avoid carbon monoxide poisoning – Provide adequate air intake so
combustion gases are not drawn back into the room.
An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no guarantee that the
limiting value will not be exceeded.
Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the combined ven-
tilation system for the entire household must be taken into consi-
deration. This rule does not apply to the use of cooking appliances,
such as cooktops and ovens.
