Frequently Asked Questions - Inserto 70 Ventilato H49 La Nordica

How to correctly light the appliance?

For a low-emission lighting, place logs in a cross with a firelighter in the center. Fully open primary and secondary air. After ignition, close the primary air and adjust the secondary air according to indications. Use kindling and paper, never flammable liquids.

What type of wood to use?

Use exclusively dry wood with moisture content below 20%. Recommended species are beech, oak, elm or poplar. Avoid resinous woods (fir, pine) which clog the flue. Never burn treated wood, waste or plastics.

How to clean the glass?

Clean the glass only when the appliance is cold. Use a specific product or a ball of damp newspaper dipped in ash. Rub gently. Do not use abrasive cloths or aggressive chemicals.

What to do in case of chimney fire?

Immediately close the stove door and the ash drawer. Close the combustion air dampers. Extinguish with a CO2 or powder extinguisher. Never use water. Call the fire department and have the flue inspected by a professional after the incident.

What is the safety distance in front of the stove?

In front of the stove door, no flammable objects should be within 80 cm. This distance can be reduced to 40 cm if you install a rear-ventilated and heat-resistant protection.

How to adjust primary and secondary air?

The primary air (under the door) is mainly used for lighting; during normal operation, it should be almost closed. The secondary air (on the door) should be open to ensure complete combustion and keep the glass clean. The flue damper should be closed during normal operation.

How often to clean the flue?

It is recommended to have the flue swept at least once a year by a professional sweep. More frequent cleaning may be necessary depending on usage and wood type.

Can I use wet wood?

No. Wet wood (over 20% moisture) is difficult to light, produces less heat, dirties the glass and flue, and increases polluting emissions. Always use dry wood stored for at least two years in an airy place.

Does the appliance need an external air supply?

Yes, it is mandatory to provide an outside air inlet in the installation room to ensure combustion and ventilation. The opening must be non-obstructible, protected by a grille, and sized according to applicable standards.

How to maintain the cast iron parts?

To preserve the aesthetic appearance of the cast iron, apply a thin coat of neutral petroleum jelly after cleaning, especially during inactive periods (summer). Avoid abrasive products. Regularly check the condition of gaskets and replace them if necessary.

Your regular local chimney sweep must be informed about the installation of the appliance so that he can check the correct connection to the chimney.

3. FIRE-FIGHTING SAFETY MEASURES

When installing the appliance, the following safety measures must be observed:

a) In order to ensure sufficient thermal insulation, respect the minimum safety distance from objects or furnishing components flammable and sensitive to heat and from materials with flammable structure (see CE MARKING INFORMATION). All the minimum safety distances are shown on the product data plate and lower values must not be used.
b) in front of the furnace door, in the radiation area, there must be no flammable or heat-sensitive objects or material at a distance of less than 80 cm. This distance can be reduced to 40 cm where a rear-ventilated, heat-resistant protection device is installed in front of the whole component to protect;
c) If the product is installed on a no totally refractory floor, one must foresee a fireproof background. The floors made of inflammable material, such as moquette, parquet or cork etc., must be replaced by a layer of no-inflammable material (size according to regional law). In case the replacement of the floor is not possible, the appliance shall be placed on a minimum 12 cm thick slab made of stone or concrete (see Picture 1 at page 39).

The ash drawer must always be inserted when the appliance is in operation.

The solid combustion residues (ashes) must be collected in a metal container that is hermetically sealed and fire resistant. The appliance must never be lit in the presence of gaseous emissions or vapours (for example: glue for linoleum, petrol, etc.). Do not place flammable materials in the vicinity of the appliance.

During the combustion, thermal air is emitted by involving the heating of areas, door and glass hearth, of the door handles or controls, of the smokes pipe and, in case, of the front part of appliance. Avoid to touch those parts without a protective clothing or without accessory tools (gloves resistant to heat, control devices).

Ensure children are aware of these dangers and keep them away from the furnace when it is on.

Warn children that the device becomes very hot and that it must not be touched.

When using the wrong fuel or one which is too damp, due to deposits present in the flue, a flue fire is possible.

3.1. FIRST-AID MEASURES

Should any fire arise in the stack or in the flue:

a) Close the feeding door.
b) Close the registers of combustion air
c) Extinguish the fire using carbon dioxide fire-fighting means (CO _2 dust).
d) Seek immediate intervention of FIRE BRIGADE.

DO NOT EXTINGUISH FIRE USING WATER JETS. When the flue does not burn any more please arrange an examination by a specialist in order to find possible cracks and permeable points.

3.2. BEAM PROTECTIONS

Considering the irradiation of the hearth, it is necessary to be particularly careful in protecting the beams while designing your stack. Consider the proximity of beams to the external surfaces of the hearth, on one side, and the irradiation of the glass door, usually very close to the beams, on the other side. In any case, it has to be considered that the internal or lower surfaces of this beam in flammable material must not come in contact with temperatures higher than 65 °C. Picture 2 at page 39 gives some examples of execution.

WARNING: We cannot be made liable for a wrong operation of the plant, when it does not comply with the provisions of these instructions or when it uses additional products not suitable for this device.

4. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

The appliance is made up of a series of cast-iron elements joined to one another by a fixed joint, while the seal is assured by refractory putty. The assembly is supported by tie rods and nuts located outside the heating body and coated with a carter made of varnished and galvanized sheet heat-resistant.

The appliances are equipped with an integrated air circuit for the recovery of the heat made up of deflectors (radiant fins) on all external surfaces of the heating body. The appliances are equipped with a hearth with double thickness part.

The appliance works as an intermittent operating appliance.

The insert is equipped with a sight door with ceramic glass (resistant up to 700^ C). This allows a charming sight on burning flames. Moreover, in this way, any possible leak of sparks and smoke is avoided. Under the hearth grating there is a easily extractable ash drawer, also when the appliance works.

The heating of the room occurs:

a) by convection: the passage of air through the coating and the covering hood releases heat in the room.
b) by radiation: through the sight glass and the steel body, heat is radiated into the room.

The device is equipped with registers of primary and secondary air, with which it is possible to adjust the combustion air.

1A - PRIMARY air register (Picture 8 at page 43)

With the air register located under the door of the hearth (on the left), it is possible to adjust the air flow through the ash drawer and the grating in direction of the fuel. The primary air is necessary for the combustion process during the ignition. When the knob is completely on the left, the register is closed, when the knob is completely on the right the register is opened.

The ash drawer has to be emptied regularly, so that ash cannot hinder the intake of primary air for the combustion. Primary air is also necessary to keep fire live.

During the combustion of wood, the primary air register must be opened only a few, since otherwise the wood burns quickly and the device can overheat (see chapter NORMAL OPERATION).

2A - SECONDARY air register (Picture 8 at page 43)

On the door of the hearth to the right, there is a secondary air register.

This valve must be opened (and therefore shifted to the right), in detail, for the combustion of wood, so that unburnt carbon can be subject to a post-combustion, increasing the yield and assuring the cleaning of the glass (see chapter NORMAL OPERATION).

3 - Smoke valve register

Combustion is not always regular; as matter of fact both atmospheric conditions and outside temperature can influence it by modifying the depression in the stack. For this reason, all inserts are equipped with an adjustable smoke valve with automatic opening allowing an optimal adjustment of the draught.

Through the lever located on the bottom left, it is possible to position the smoke valve correctly (all to the left = all open). Should the door open independently from its position, the smoke valve opens automatically.

The adjustment of the registers necessary to reach the rated calorific yield is the following one:

	Hourly consumption (kg/h)	PRIMARY AIR SE	CONDARY AIR TERTIARY AIR	Smoke valve register
INSERTO 60	2	CLOSED OPENED NO CLOSED
INSERTO 70	2,6	CLOSED OPENED NO CLOSED

5. FLUE

Essential requirements for a correct operation of the device:

• the internal section must be preferably circular;
• be thermally insulated and water-proof and produced with materials suitable to resist to heat, combustion products and possible condensates;
• not be throttled and show a vertical arrangement with deviations not greater than 45^ ;
• if already used, it must be clean;
• observe the technical data of the instructions manual;

Should the flues have a square or rectangular section, internal edges must be rounded with a radius not lower than 20 mm. For the rectangular section, the maximum ratio between the sides must be = 1.5.

A too small section causes a decrease of the draught. It is suggested a minimum height of 4 m.

The following features are forbidden and therefore they endanger the good operation of the device: asbestos cement, galvanized steel, rough and porous internal surfaces. In Picture 3 at page 39 gives some examples of execution.

The minimum section must be 4 dm ^2 (for example 20 x 20 cm) for devices whose duct diameter is lower than 200 mm or 6.25 dm ^3 (for example 25 x 25 cm) for devices with diameter greater than 200 mm.

The draught created by the flue must be sufficient, but not excessive.

A too big flue section can feature a too big volume to be heated and consequently cause difficulties in the operation of the device; to avoid this, tube the flue along its whole height. A too small section causes a decrease of the draught.

ATTENTION: as far as concern the realisation of the flue connection and flammable materials please follow the requirements provided by UNI 10683 standard. The flue must be properly spaced from any flammable materials or fuels through a proper insulation or an air cavity. It is FORBIDDEN to let plant piping or air feeding channels pass in the same flue. Moreover, it is forbidden to create movable or fixed openings on the same for the connection of further other devices (Picture 4 at page 40).

5.1. CHIMNEY CAP

The draught of the flue depends also on the suitability of the chimney cap.

Therefore, if it is handicraft constructed, the output section must be more than twice as big as the internal section of the flue. Should it be necessary to exceed the ridge of the roof, the chimney cap must assure the discharge also in case of windy weather (Picture 5 at page 40 - Picture 6 at page 41).

The chimney cap must meet the following requirements:

• have internal section equivalent to that of the stack.
• have a useful output section twice as big as the flue internal one.
- be manufactured in such a way as to prevent the penetration of rain, snow, and any other foreign body in the flue.
- be easily checkable, for any possible maintenance and cleaning operation

5.2. CONNECTION TO THE FLUE / AIR FOR COMBUSTION (external air intake)

The connection to the stack must be performed with stiff pipes in steel comply with all current Standards and Regulations and to those envisioned by the Law.

It is FORBIDDEN to use metallic pipes or pipes in asbestos cement since they jeopardize the safety of the fitting itself, considering that they are subject to tears or breaks resulting in leaks of smoke.

The exhaust pipe must be air-tight fastened to the stack and can have a maximum inclination of 45^ ; this to avoid excessive deposits of condensate produced in the initial start-up phases and/or the excessive gripping of soot and moreover it avoids the slowing down of the smokes at output.

The failed tightness of the connection can cause the malfunction of the device.

The internal diameter of the connection pipe must be equal to the external diameter of the smokes stub pipe of the device. This is assured by the pipes complying with DIN 1298.

For a better working of the appliance, it is suggested to have a flue draught of 11 Pa14 Pa (=1.1=1.4 mm of column of water).

The measurement has always to be carried out with hot device (rated thermal performance).

When the depression exceeds 17 Pa (=1.7 mm of column of water), it is necessary to reduce the same by installing an additional draught

regulator (butterfly valve).

IMPORTANT: When using metallic pipes, they must be insulated with proper materials (coatings in insulating fibers resistant up to 600°C) in order to avoid deterioration of walls or of the counter-hood.

Before positioning the insert in the pre-existing fireplace, it is necessary to close the upper internal part of the stack using (properly pre-drilled) sheet metal or any other kind of fire-resistant material that can support very high temperatures without suffering any damage. (see Picture 7 at page 42 pos. 1 Inserti).

It is necessary to ventilate continuously the space included between the upper part, the sides of the device and the deflector of the fire-proofing material of the hood.

For this reason, it is necessary to foresee an intake of air from the bottom (intake of fresh air) and a high output (output of hot air).

Each of these openings must be free and it should not be possible to obstruct it; moreover, they must have a minimum surface of at least 3 dm^2 (example: 30 × 10 cm grating).

In this way, the following targets are achieved:

- a greater safety

- an increase of the heat created by air circulation around the device.

The heat vent grating (Picture 7 at page 42 pos. 6) has to be installed on the upper part of the hood at about 20 cm from the roof. This must always be installed since its function is that of letting the heat collected within the hood (overpressure) flow out into the room.

5.3. EXTERNAL AIR INTAKE

There MANDATORY be sufficient quantity of air for combustion and re-oxygenation of the room to ensure the device will work properly. There should therefore be vents letting air in from outside the building and enabling circulation of air for combustion even when the doors and windows are closed.

• The air intake must be in a position where it cannot be obstructed.
• The air intake should communicate with the room in which the device is installed and be protected with a grille.
  • Vents may communicate with adjacent rooms but NOT with garages, kitchens, bathrooms or boiler rooms (FORBIDDEN).
• Any extractor hoods in the room where the device is installed must not operate at the same time as this could cause smoke to enter the room, even with the fireplace's door closed.
  • Minimum dimensions (See chapter TECHNICAL DATA)

6. VENTILATION HOOD OR ADJACENT LOCAL

Our products are equipped with tangential fans suitable to improve the distribution of heat through the ventilation exclusively of the installation room (see chapter SERIES VENTILATION).

On our products, it is possible to install OPTIONAL ventilation kits suitable to improve the distribution of heat by ventilation only either of the installation room or of the adjacent local (see chapter OPTIONAL VENTILATION KIT).

The product can distribute heated air by natural convection or forced convection by means of a centrifugal fan (OPTIONAL); therefore, during installation, it is necessary to establish the type of ventilation or convection to be adopted.

The covering of each product is equipped with 2 outputs with a diameter of 120 mm (12 cm) for the connection of pipes resistant to heat.

a) Perform the drilling on the walls or on the existing hood to allow the passage and the application of the (fire-resistant) hoses with related openings.
b) Fasten the pipes by means of clamps to the related collars and openings, after having removed the semi-blanks caps (see Picture 10 at page 43).
c) Each pipe must not exceed 1.5 m of length for natural ventilation and 4 m for forced ventilation; it must be insulated with insulating materials to avoid noise and dispersion of heat.
d) The openings have to be positioned at a height not lower than 2 m from the floor to avoid that hot air at output meets people. Please respect the distance of the convection openings according to the local construction norms;
e) The lengths of the canalization pipes must have the same length to avoid the distribution of differing quantities of air from each output (see Picture 10 at page 43).
f) If the space between the upper part of the insert and the lower profile of the hood is lower than 10 cm, it is necessary to perform a hole of about 30 x 40 cm on the hood to allow the fastening of the hoses;
g) The OPTIONAL ventilation kit has to be installed below the appliance in the rear part (see instructions in chapter OPTIONAL kit ventilation). As a consequence you should arrange a underlying space to collocate it, allowing a proper air flow and the accessibility for future maintenance.

7. CONNECTION AND MAINTENANCE OF VENTILATION

Our products are equipped with tangential fans suitable to improve the distribution of heat through the ventilation exclusively of the installation room (see SERIES VENTILATION chapter TECHNICAL DATA SHEET).

The lighting and the adjustment is carried out through the proper standard supplied control unit that has to be installed far from any direct heat source.

The selection of the kind of insert to be connected is in the control unit and has to be done by moving the small bridge as shown hereafter (see chapter SERIES VENTILATION) before the INSERT starts to operate. This operation must be done without electric energy!!

On our products, it is possible to install OPTIONAL ventilation kits suitable to improve the distribution of heat by ventilation only either of the installation room or of the adjacent local (see chapter VENTILATION HOOD OR ADJACENT LOCAL). For the connection of the ventilation kit, please see chapter OPTIONAL VENTILATION KIT.

The Kit is made up of a centrifugal fan, a lighting and adjustment control unit, and a (TM) thermostat that lets the fan start when the device is properly heated and lets it stop when the fan is partially cold.

The control unit and the plant must be installed and connected by authorized personnel according to the standards in force (see chapter GENERAL PRECAUTIONS).

ATTENTION: the control unit and the feeding cable must not be in contact with hot parts (Picture 11 at page 44).

CONNECTION: Connect the power supply cable of the control unit to a bipolar switch respecting at least a 3 mm distance between the contacts (power supply 230 V\~50 Hz, it is necessary to provide for the correct connection to the grounding plant). This operation must be done without electric energy!!

WARNING: The COMMAND must be connected to the mains with a differential line cut-off switch according to the regulations in force. Correct operation of the command is assured only for the proper motor for which it has been manufactured. Improper use relieves the manufacturer from each responsibility.

8. ALLOWED / NOT ALLOWED FUELS

Allowed fuels are logs. Use exclusively dry logs (max. content of water 20%). Maximum 3 logs should be loaded. The pieces of wood should have a length of ca. 20-30 cm and a maximum circumference of 30-35 cm.

Compressed not worked-out wood briquettes must be used carefully to avoid overheating that may damage the device, since these have a very high calorific value.

The wood used as fuel must have a humidity content lower than the 20% and must be stored in a dry place. Humid wood tends to burn less easily, since it is necessary a greater quantity of energy to let the existing water evaporate. Moreover, humid content involves the disadvantage that, when temperature decreases, the water condensates earlier in the hearth and therefore in the stack causing a remarkable deposit of soot with following possible risk of fire of the same.

Fresh wood contains about 60% of H_2O , therefore it is not suitable to be burnt.

It is necessary to place this wood in a dry and ventilated place (for example under a roofing) for at least two years before using it.

Besides others, it is not possible to burn: carbon, cuttings, waste of bark and panels, humid wood or wood treated with paints, plastic materials; in this case, the warranty on the device becomes void.

Paper and cardboard must be used only to light the fire.

The combustion of waste is FORBIDDEN and would even damage the appliance and the flue, causing health damages and claims by the neighborhood owing to the bad smell. The wood is not a fuel which allows a continuous operation of the appliance, as consequence the heating all over the night is not possible.

Variety kg/mc kWh/kg moistness 20%
Beech	750 4,0
Oak	900 4,2
Elm	640 4,1
Poplar	470 4,1
Larch*	660 4,4
Spruce*	450 4,5
Scots pine *	550 4,4

* RESINOUS WOOD NOT SUITABLE FOR THE BURNING

ATTENTION : the continuous and protracted use of aromatic wood (eucalyptus, myrtle etc.) quickly damages the cast iron parts (cleavage) of the product.

9. LIGHTING

After the first ignition you can smell bad odours (owing to the drying of the glue used in the garnitures or of the paint) which disappear after a brief using of the appliance. A good ventilation of the room should always be guaranteed.

T light the fire, it is suggested to use small wood pieces together with paper or other traded lighting means.

It is FORBIDDEN to use any liquid substance as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, oil and similar.

Open the primary air completely.

When wood starts to burn, it is possible to feed it again by opening slowly the door, in order to avoid leaks of smoke, and close the primary air register and control the combustion through the secondary air register according to the provisions of chapter TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION. Please always be present during this phase.

Never overload the appliance (see the technical table - max. quantity of fuel that can be loaded / hourly consumption).

Too much fuel and too much air for combustion can cause overheating and therefore damage the same.

Never switch on the device when there are combustible gases in the room.

To perform a correct first lighting of the products treated with paints for high temperature, it is necessary to know the following information:

• the construction materials of the involved products are not homogeneous, in fact there are simultaneously parts in cast iron, steel, refractory material and majolica;
• the temperature to which the body of the product is subject is not homogeneous: from area to area, variable temperatures within the range of 300°C - 500°C are detected;
• during its life, the product is subject to alternated lighting and extinguishing cycles in the same day, as well as to cycles of intense use or of absolute standstill when season changes;
• the new appliance, before being considered seasoned has to be subject to many start cycles to allow all materials and paints to complete the various elastic stresses;
• in detail, initially it is possible to remark the emission of smells typical of metals subject to great thermal stress, as well as of wet paint. This paint, although during the manufacture it is backed at 250 °C for some hours, must exceed many times and for a given period of time the temperature of 350 °C before becoming completely embedded in the metallic surfaces.

Therefore, it is extremely relevant to take these easy steps during the lighting:

1. Make sure that a strong air change is assured in the room where the appliance is installed.
2. During the first starts, do not load excessively the combustion chamber (about half the quantity indicated in the instructions manual) and keep the product continuously ON for at least 6-10 hours with the registers less open than the value indicated in the instructions manual.
3. Repeat this operation for at least 4-5 or more times, according to your possibilities.
4. Then load more and more fuel (following in any case the provisions contained in the installation booklet concerning maximum load) and, if possible, keep the lighting periods long avoiding, at least in this initial phase, short ON/OFF cycles.
5. During the first starts, no object should be leaned on the appliance and in detail on enamelled surfaces. Enamelled surfaces must not be touched during heating.
6. Once the «break-in» has been completed, it is possible to use the product as the motor of a car, avoiding abrupt heating with excessive loads.

After testing the proper working of the appliance, some days from the installation, it is possible to proceed with the construction of its aesthetic covering.

WARNING: During the surround building operations it must kept in mind possible and subsequent electrical installed parts maintenance (Fans, temperature probe, etc) and with hydraulic systems all parts connected to the thermo-fireplace.

9.1. LOW EMISSION fire lighting

Smokeless combustion is a way of lighting a fire able to significantly reduce the emission of harmful substances. The wood burns gradually from the top downwards, so combustion is slower and more controlled. Burnt gases pass through the high temperatures of the flame and therefore burn almost completely.

Place the logs in the hearth a certain distance apart as shown in the Picture 9 at page 43. Arrange the largest at the bottom and the smallest at the top, or vertically in the case of tall narrow combustion chambers. Place the fire starter module on top of the pile, arranging the first logs in the module at right angles to the pile of wood.

Fire STARTER MODULE

This fire starter module replaces a paper or cardboard starter.

Prepare four logs, 20 cm long with a cross section of 3 cm by 3 cm Picture 9 at page 43. Cross the four logs and place them on top of the pile of wood at right angles, with the fire lighter (wax impregnated wood fibre for example) in the middle. The fire can be lit with a match. If you want, you can use thinner pieces of wood. In this case, you will need a larger quantity.

Keep the flue gas exhaust valve and combustion air regulator open (1A - 2A). After lighting the fire, leave the combustion air regulator open in the position shown in the Picture 9 at page 43.

IMPORTANT:

• do not add further wood between one complete load and the next;
• do not suffocate the fire by closing the air intakes;
• regular cleaning by a chimney sweep reduces fine particle emissions.

After having positioned the registers correctly, insert the indicated hourly wood load avoiding overloads that cause anomalous stresses and deformations. You should always use the product with the door closed in order to avoid damages due to overheating (forge effect). The inobservance of this rule makes the warranty expire.

With the registers located on the front of the device, it is possible to adjust the heat emission of the same. They have to be opened according to the calorific need. The best combustion (with minimum emissions) is reached when, by loading the wood, most part of the air for combustion flows through the secondary air register.

Never overload the appliance. Too much fuel and too much air for the combustion may cause overheating and then damage the product.

You should always use the appliance with the door closed in order to avoid damages due to overheating (forge effect).

The adjustment of the registers necessary to reach the rated calorific yield with a depression at the stack of 11 Pa 14 Pa (=1.1 =1.4 mm of column of water) is the following one: see chap. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION. The appliance works as an intermittent operating appliance.

Besides the adjustment of the air for the combustion, the intensity of the combustion and consequently the thermal performance of the device is influenced by the stack. A good draught of the stack requires a stricter adjustment of air for combustion, while a poor draught requires a more precise adjustment of air for combustion.

To verify the good combustion, check whether the smoke coming out from the stack is transparent.

If it is white, it means that the device is not properly adjusted or the wood is too wet; if instead the smoke is gray or black, it signals that the combustion is not complete (it is necessary a greater quantity of secondary air).

WARNING: When fuel is added onto the embers in the absence of a flame, a considerable amount of fumes may develop. Should this happen, an explosive mixture of gas and air may form, and in extreme cases an explosion may occur. For safety reasons it is advisable to perform a new lighting procedure with the use of small strips.

10.1. OPERATION DURING TRANSITION PERIODS

During transition periods when the external temperatures are higher, if there is a sudden increase of temperature it can happen that the combustion gases inside the flue cannot be completely sucked up.

The exhaust gases do not come out completely (intense smell of gas). In this case, shake the grating more frequently and increase the air for the combustion. Then, load a reduced quantity of fuel in order to permit a rapid burning (growing up of the flames) and the stabilization of the draught.

Then, check that all openings for the cleaning and the connections to the stack are air-tight. In case of doubt, do not operate the product.

11. SUMMER STOP

After cleaning the hearth, chimney and hood, totally eliminating the ash and other eventual residues, close all the doors of the hearth and the relevant registers; in case you disconnect the appliance from the chimney you must close its openings in order to let work others possible appliances connected to the same flue.

We suggest performing the cleaning operation of the flue at least once per year; verifying in the meantime the actual status of the rope seals, which cannot ensure the good operation of the equipment if they are not in good condition and are not making a good seal! In this case the seals must be replaced.

In presence of dampness in the room where the stove has been placed, we advise you to put absorbent salts into the hearth.

If you want to keep for long the aesthetic look of the cooker it is important to protect its internal walls in row cast iron with neutral Vaseline.

12. MAINTENANCE AND CARE

Check the external air intake, by cleaning it, at least once a year. The stack must be regularly swept by the chimney sweeper.

Let your chimney sweeper in charge of your area check the regular installation of the device, the connection to the stack and the aeration.

IMPORTANT: The maintenance must be carried out only and exclusively with cold device. You should only use spare parts approved and supplied by La NORDICA S.p.A. . Please contact your specialized retailer if you require spare parts. YOU MUST NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THE DEVICE!!!

12.1. GLASS CLEANING

Thanks to a specific inlet of secondary air, the accumulation of dirty sediments on the glass-door is reduced with efficacy. Nevertheless this can never be avoided by using solid fuels (particularly wet wood) and it has not to be understood as a defect of the appliance.

IMPORTANT: The cleaning of the sight glass must be carried out only and exclusively with cold device to avoid the explosion of the same. For the cleaning, it is possible to use specific products or a wet newspaper paper ball passed in the ash to rub it. Do not use cloths, abrasive or chemically aggressive products by cleaning the hearth glass.

The correct lighting phase, the use of proper quantities and types of fuels, the correct position of the secondary air regulator, enough draught of the chimney-flue and the presence of combustion air are the essential elements for the optimal functioning of the appliance and for the cleaning of the glass.

BREAK OF GLASSES: Given that the glass-ceramic glasses resist up to a heat shock of 750^ C, they are not subject to thermal shocks. Their break can be caused only by mechanic shocks (bumps or violent closure of the door, etc.). Therefore, their replacement is not included in the warranty.

12.2. CLEANING OUT THE ASHES

All the devices are equipped with a hearth grating and an ash drawer for the collection of the ashes.

It is suggested to empty periodically the ash drawer and to avoid it fills completely in order not to overheat the grating. Moreover, it is suggested to leave always 3-4 cm of ash in the hearth.

CAUTION: The ashes removed from the hearth have to be stored in a container made of fire-resistant material equipped with an air-tight cover. The container has to be placed on a fire-resistant floor, far from flammable materials up to the switching off and complete cooling.

12.3. CLEANING THE FLUE

The correct lighting phase, the use of proper quantities and types of fuels, the correct position of the secondary air regulator, enough draught of the chimney-flue and the presence of combustion air are the essential elements for the optimal functioning of the appliance.

The device should be completely cleaned at least once a year or every time it is a needed (in case of bad working and low yield). An excessive deposit of soot can cause problems in the discharge of smokes and fire in the flue.

The cleaning must be carried out exclusively with cold equipment. This operation should be carried out by a chimney sweeper who can simultaneously perform an audit of the flue (checking of possible deposits).

13. CALCULATION OF THE THERMAL POWER

There is not an absolute rule for calculating the correct necessary power. This power is given according to the space to be heated, but it depends also largely on the insulation. On an average, the calorific value necessary for a properly insulated room is 30 kcal/h per m³ (for an external temperature of 0°C).

Given that 1 kW corresponds to 860 kcal/h, it is possible to adopt a value of 38 W/m ^4 .

Let's suppose one wishes to heat a room of 150m^3 (10 x 6 x 2.5 m) in an insulated apartment. In this case, it is necessary to have 150m^3 x 38 W/m ^3 = 5700 W or 5,7 kW. As main heating, a 8 kW device is therefore sufficient.
