4.17. The minimum distance from gas outlet to ground shall be minimum 65cm, depending however on the
surface. Gas may burn grass, plants, trees located near the gas outlet. In the event that the stove outlet is
lower, suitable safety measures should be taken. The outlet pipe should never be below the extractor itself.
4.18. The distance between gas outlet and public pavement shall be minimum 2.20 m. See your local regulations.
4.19. Never fix the gas outlet flex in a chimney or a flex already installed which diameter is 4 times as large as the
stove's flex (Ø100 max. 314 cm
channeled to the top.
If the tube that was installed previously was used with another type of heating (wood, oil, etc.), you MUST
clean it thoroughly, to reduce the risk of fire in the gas vent.
4.20. Gas outlet flex cannot be installed in a share pipe such as the pipe of an extractor hood, another stove or
heating system.
4.21. If gas outlet installation is wrong, combustion air's homogeneity might be bad which could make the wall of
the house or the building dirty, aggregate trash inside the stove and thus be the source of premature
degradation of the spare parts and gas outlet pipe.
4.22. The air input pipe should not be drained with the risk of affecting the correct operation of the stove. For this
reason, and in order to facilitate fresh air input, it is necessary to set up a ventilation grid AT NOT LESS than
50cm both horizontally and vertically from gas output, see point 4.16.
Direct air currents shall also be avoided as they might prevent a correct operation of the stove and as a
consequence, heat performance.
Ventilation of the room must meet the minimum flow required according to specific regulations and the
maximum intake air flow of the machine.
Extraction fans can cause problems when operating in the same room or in the same space as the appliance.
4.23. In any case the design of the chimney termination will impede the free diffusion in the atmosphere of
combustion products. A metallic mesh with a gap of 3x3 cm can be placed to avoid the entry of birds or
unwanted objects.
4.24. If a testing module is installed to collect combustion gas readings and samples, it must be equipped with
hermetic and self-locking sealing.
Although we cannot keep track of or describe every single installation, option, or the local installation
regulations corresponding to your area, Ecoforest guarantees that the installations suggested below will enable
your boiler to function properly, and to conform to minimum personal and material safety measures.
If you are installing your boiler in a building, in addition to respect local regulations on gas flues, you
should consult with the residents' association to avoid future problems.
Please read the entire manual carefully, especially the chapter on installation to ensure your boiler
operates properly and at full power.
4.25. The installation shown below is the most common. Please bear in mind that if the gas flue pipe located on
the outside of the dwelling is in an area where people pass by, insulated tube must be used.
