Secondary air not only enables the ceramic glass to be cleaned, it also enables the combustion of any gases that could develop from incomplete combustion of the wood, thereby reducing the risk of hazardous gases entering the room. The preset amount of secondary air enters the firebox through a passage in the door’s upper glass retainer.
DIMENSIONS
SMOKE OUTLET
FLUE
-
Before positioning the stove, make sure the flue is suitable for the smoke produced. The fact an old oven or stove connected to the same flue worked correctly does not necessarily mean the new one will work well.
-
When installing the stove, the position of the flue must be taken into account in order to prevent incorrect smoke duct paths; the size of the flue must comply with the specifications indicated in the technical data. We recommend using insulated circular section flues made of refractory material or stainless steel with smooth internal walls.
The flue cross-section should be constant for its whole length (we recommend a minimum height of 3.5 – 4 m). -
We recommend fitting a chamber at the base of the flue to collect solid material and any condensate. Dilapidated flues and flues made of unsuitable materials (asbestos, galvanized steel, corrugated iron, etc.) with rough or porous internal surfaces are illegal and detrimental to stove operation.
-
The flue should be used for one single stove only (it cannot receive the outlet of other fireboxes)
-
For a good draught, the flue should be free from obstructions, such as bottlenecks, horizontal sections and sharp edges; any nonvertical sections should slope by not more than 45° from the vertical (fig. 3).
-
If the flue to be used has previously been used for other stoves or fireplaces, it must be carefully cleaned to prevent faulty operation and avert the risk of unburnt deposits on the internal flue walls catching fire.
-
In normal working conditions, the flue must be cleaned at least once a year.
-
For optimal operation, the flue draught must create a pressure drop between 0.12 and 0.2 mbars. Lower values may lead to unpleasant smoke emissions when loading the stove and produce excessive soot deposits; higher values would lead to excessively fast combustion and a decrease in thermal efficiency. To fall within the correct
values, refer to the UNI Standard 10683/2006 table. -
If there are several flues on the roof, the others should be at least 2 metres away and the stove chimney pot should be at least 40 cm higher than the others.
Please refer to the chapter of the UNI 10683/2006 regulation regarding positioning of chimney pots. -
We recommend installing a fire damper on the smoke duct.
SMOKE DUCT
The smoke duct connects the smoke outlet to the flue inlet.
The smoke duct must be made with steel or ceramic rigid pipes. Flexible metal
pipes or fibre cement pipes are not allowed. Horizontal and counterslope
sections should be avoided. Any cross-secion change should be made in
correspondence of the stove outlet and not at the flue inlet.
Angles greater than 45° are not allowed (see figures 1,2,3,4).
The connection between the smoke duct and the steel flue should be sealed with
high-temperature-resistant mastic.
CHIMNEY POT
The chimney pot must have a wind guard (for any clarification, please refer to
your retailer), an internal section equivalent to that of the flue, and smoke
outlet cross-section at least twice that of the internal flue cross-section.
For correct operation, please refer toUNI 10683/2006.

INSTALLATION
The stove is delivered on a pallet inside a cardboard box.
First of all, remove the stove from its packaging, check that the model is the
one ordered, and make sure it has not been damaged during transportation. Any
complaints must be made to the carrier (in writing on the accompanying
consignment note) upon receipt. Refer to the local regulations in the country
of use for assembly and anything else not expressly shown. In Italy, refer to
standard UNI 10683/2006, along with any regional or local health authority
regulations. If the stove is to be installed in a condominium, consult the
administration before installing.
COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER DEVICES
According to the regulation UNI 10683/05, the stove must NOT be installed in
the same room as extractors, type B gas equipment or any device creating
vacuum conditions.
Warning: extraction fans operating in the same room can cause problems.
AIR INTAKE
The room of installation must have a suitable outside air intake with a
through surface area of at least 200 cm² (Ø 16), in order to replenish the
burnt oxygen and ensure an adequate combustion airflow.
Alternatively, air can be drawn from the outside and conveyed through a Ø10
pipe connected directly to the rear of the stove ( ) as shown in illustration
- To connect the pipe to the stove, eliminate the pre-carved cap ( ) and fit the pipe by means of a “spring wire” clamp, then fasten the pipe.
SAFETY DISTANCES
- Place the stove away from flammable materials and objects; leave a distance of 35 cm from furniture and at least 35 cm from the wall. These distances are for furniture or walls which are either fireproof or able to withstand being raised to an environmental temperature of 80°C without overheating to the point of catching fire. The air circulation which is created around the stove thanks to these distances ensures efficient ventilation and improves thermal efficiency.
- In the event the stove is to be installed on a floor made with a flammable material, we recommend placing it on a steel plate available as an optional.
EDILKAMIN declines any responsibility for installations not complying with the laws in force and for misuse of the stove.
FIRE DAMPERS (with installation of the damper on the smoke channel)
The fire damper should be easily handled and its position must be
distinguished from the outside through the adjustment knob.
The fire damper must remain fixed in its position and must not be able to
close automatically.
The fire dumper must NOT close the flue section completely, but it must
guarantee a permanent minimum opening which should be equal to 3 % of the
section itself and in any case equal to at least 20 cm².
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
NOTE on the fuel: wood
For a correct operation of the stove, it is necessary to burn dry natural
wood, with a humidity of maximum 20%. Warning: while in operation, some parts
of the stove reach very high temperatures; therefore, we recommend keeping a
good eye on children.
The stove has been designed to work with the door closed only. Heat is
propagated by radiation and convection. Always use the provided glove to open
the door and to make adjustments.
FIRST LIGHTING
Any unpleasant odour or smoke could be caused by mate rials used during
construction evaporating or drying. This tends to die down after a few days.
Proceed as follows: put some paper with a small quantity of well-seasoned thin
wood into the firebox, in order to live up the flame as much as possible, to
make the flame as fierce as possible, opening the primary and secondary air
dampers as much as possible (see illustration 1 on Pag. 9) and HALF-CLOSE the
door.
- As soon as the flames have died down and have formed a hard bed of embers, load a normal amount of wood into the firebox (do not exceed the maximum amount specified in the table on page 10).
- At this point close the door completely and adjust the combustion using the primary and secondary air dampers.
- Make sure the firebox door is always perfectly closed during operation.
NOTE:
do not use alcohol, petrol, kerosene or other liquid fuels to light the fire.
Keep liquid fuels away from the fire. Do not use firelighters made from
petroleum or chemical substances: they may cause serious damage to the firebox
walls. Use eco-friendly firelighters only.
Overloading (in excess of 2.5 kg/h – see table containing technical data) or
excessively lively flames may damage the firebox compartment.
FUEL TYPE
This stove is preferably fed with well-seasoned beech/birch wood Each type of
wood has different charac-teristics that also affect combustion efficiency.
The decla-red nominal kW yield of the stove is obtained by burning the correct
amount of wood, taking care not to overload the combustion chamber.
Fuel and heating power
Combustion has been optimised from a technical point of view both with regards
to the design of the hearth and its air supply as well as in terms of
emissions.
Please support our commitment to a clean environment by observing the
directions listed below regarding the use of combustible materials that do not
contain and do not pro-duce harmful substances.
As far as fuel, use only natural and seasoned wood or wood briquettes. Wet or
fresh-cut wood or wood stored improperly presents a high water content and
therefore do not burn properly, create smoke and produce little heat. Only use
firewood which has been seasoned for a minimum of year two years in a
ventilated and dry environment. In this case, water content will be below 20%
of the weight. This way you will save in terms of combustible material, as the
seasoned wood has a much higher calori-fic value.
Never use liquid fuels such as gasoline, alcohol or similar. Do not burn
waste.
Note: Seasoned wood has a calorific value of approximately 4 kWh/kg, while fresh-cut wood has a calorific value of only 2 kWh/kg. Therefore, to achieve the same calorific value you would have to use double the fuel.
| Water | Calorific | Higher wood | |
|---|---|---|---|
| content g/kg | value | consumption | |
| of wood | kWh/kg | in % | |
| Very seasoned | 100 | 4,5 | 0 |
| 2 years of seasoning | 200 | 4 | 15 |
| 1 year of seasoning | 350 | 3 | 71 |
| Fresh-cut firewood | 500 | 2,1 | 153 |
ATTENTION: If the hearth is fuelled by an excessive amount of fuel or improper fuel, the danger of overheating can occur with consequent damage to the product.
MAINTENANCE
Removing the ash
The ash pan contained within the firebox must be emptied as soon as it becomes
close to being full of ash.
Failure to empty it will result in the cast iron grate over-heating and a
scarce air intake .
The ash pan must be emptied when the stove is cold.
Cleaning the glass pane
To clean the inside glass surface, we recommend using GLASSKAMIN available at
your retailer EDILKAMIN. Do not clean the glass during stove operation or
while hot!
NOTE: ceramic glass withstands high temperatures, but it is fragile, so protect it from accidental blows.
Cleaning the external parts
The covering must be cleaned with a gentle detergent and damp cloth. Do not
use cold water when the stove is hot since the sudden temperature change could
cause dama-ges.
Cleaning the firebox
Clean the firebox compartment regularly or, in any case, when soot deposits
become excessive. This leads to better stove operation and efficiency.
Cleaning the flue
This must be done before periods of stove use and every time you notice a
layer of soot and tar (easily flammable substances) on the inside of the duct.
When deposits reach a thickness of 5 – 6 mm, high temperatures and sparks may
set them on fire with serious consequences for both the flue and your home.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Most of the times apparent inconveniences are caused by distractions or a non-
workmanlike installation. However, below is shown what to do in the most
frequent cases.
-
In case of smoke emissions, make sure that:
The smoke valve is open enough.
The air inlet adjustment lever is open enough.
The installation has been carried out correctly (smoke duct, flue, chimney pot).
The wood is dry. -
In case of uncontrolled combustion, make sure that:
The smoke valve is not too open
The door seals are in place.
The firebox door is tightly closed. -
In case the glass gets easily dirty, make sure that:
The wood is dry.
The smoke valve is always open at least by 25-30%However, keep in mind that after a few hours of operation, it is normal that a a slight layer of dust deposits on the glass. -
In the event the inconvenience cannot be solved, please contact your dealer.
