Frequently Asked Questions - Ecofire Michelle 8 air Palazzetti

What type of pellets to use with the Ecofire Michelle 8 air stove?
Use only class A1 wood pellets (ISO 17225-2, ENplus A1, DIN Plus or NF standard). Poor quality pellets can compromise operation and warranty.
How to clean the stove glass?
Clean the glass with a damp cloth or paper moistened and dipped in ashes. Never use abrasive sponges, solvents or aggressive detergents. Perform this operation when the stove is cold.
What to do in case of smoke leakage into the room?
Immediately turn off the stove, ventilate the room and contact a qualified technician. Do not reuse the appliance without identifying and resolving the cause.

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Warnings for users - 4

It is forbidden to manually load the pellets into the brazier, as this incorrect behaviour could generate an abnormal quantity of unburnt gases, with the consequent risk of explosion inside the chamber.

The accumulation of unburned pellets in the brazier after a failed ignition must be removed before proceeding with a new ignition attempt.

If the brazier is not cleaned and subjected to maintenance, malfunctions and explosions may occur inside the stove. Be sure to remove all traces of material or deposits from the holes in the brazier and to clean them every time the ashes are emptied or in case of ignition failure. Make sure that the size of the holes in the burn pot is not reduced, as this would have a negative effect on the safe performance of the appliance.

Some tips to avoid corrosion

phenomena:

- carry out routine cleaning operations carefully, avoiding ash deposits;

- power the appliance only with fuel having the characteristics listed under "Fuel characteristics";

- do not use solvents, acids, detergents or aggressive products for direct cleaning of the glass or other components of the product;

- avoid leaving the product in unfavourable environmental conditions (humidity, air salinity, bad weather, etc.);

- if not used for a long time (e.g. summer period), introduce desiccant bags into the combustion chamber to absorb moisture from the air, being sure to remove them when the product is switched on again.

3 FUEL CHARACTERISTICS

3.1 Fuel characteristics

The pellets (Fig. 2) are a compound consisting of various types of wood pressed with mechanical procedures in compliance with the environmental protection regulations, and the only fuel required for this type of appliance.

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Fuel characteristics - 1

natural_image Pile of cylindrical plant material samples, likely wood chips or similar organic material, with no visible text or symbols.

The efficiency and thermal potential of the appliance may vary according to the type and quality of the pellets used.

We recommend the use of class A1 pellets (ISO 17225-2 standard, ENplus A1, DIN Plus or NC 444 category "High Performance NF Pellets Biofuel Quality").

The appliance is equipped with a pellet container tank of the capacity indicated in the characteristic data table in the attached Product Booklet.

The loading compartment is positioned at the top, it must always be open for loading of the pellets and must remain closed while the appliance is operating.

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Fuel characteristics - 2

It is prohibited to use the appliance as an incinerator to burn rubbish.

3.2 Pellet storage

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Pellet storage - 1

Pellets must be kept in a dry place, not too cold and the bags must be kept sealed.

It is advisable to keep a number of bags of pellets in the room where the appliance is being used or in an adjacent room provided it is at the correct temperature and humidity and at a safe distance (at least one meter) away from heat sources.

Wet and/or cold pellets (5 °C) reduce the thermal potential of the fuel resulting in the need for more

cleaning maintenance of the brazier (unburned material) and of the firebox.

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Pellet storage - 2

Pay particular attention to the storage and handling of pellet bags. Their crushing and the formation of sawdust must be avoided.

If sawdust is placed in the appliance tank it could cause the pellet loading system to block.

The use of poor quality pellets can compromise the normal functioning of the appliance and lead to losing the guarantee.

text_image Pi X Pi X1 Pp Fig. 12

Set up the electricity supply line to arrive near the appliance for the connection of the power cable.

6.4 Combustion air

The appliance, during its operation, requires combustion air.

The inflow of combustion air can be obtained in the following ways:

- coming directly from the outside with direct connection to the combustion chamber (Fig. 13 - Fig. 14).

- coming from the installation environment or from suitable adjacent rooms (Fig. 15)

Extraction of combustion air from outside

In this case it is possible as an alternative:

  • to channel the combustion air using a coaxial exhaust pipe to expel the fumes and to extract the air (Fig. 13 - A, B = Air inlet, C, D = Smoke outlet); it is therefore not necessary to create a tradition air intake in the room;
  • connect the combustion air inlet of the appliance to the air intake with a suitable duct (Fig. 14).

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Extraction of combustion air from outside - 1

text_image A B C D Fig. 13

Extraction of combustion air in the room

Create the air intake on the wall (Fig. 15 - PA = Air Intake), and leave the appliance free to bring air into the room.

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Extraction of combustion air in the room - 1

text_image PA Fig. 15

If the rear wall of the appliance is an external wall, make a hole for the intake of combustion air at a height of about 20-30 cm from the ground, respecting the dimension indications given on the technical data sheet at the end of the booklet.

A non-closable permanent protection grid must be placed externally; in areas that are particularly windy and exposed to weathering, provide rain and wind protection.

Ensure that the air intake is positioned so that it won't be accidentally obstructed.

If it is impossible to create an external air intake in the wall behind the appliance (non-perimeter wall), a hole must be made in an external wall of the room where the appliance is positioned.

If it is not possible to create the external air intake in the room, an external hole can be created in an adjacent room provided it communicates permanently with a transit grille.

It is forbidden to take combustion air from garages, warehouses of combustible material or places with activities at risk of fire.

If there are other heating appliances in the room, the combustion air inlets must guarantee the necessary volume of air for the correct operation of all devices.

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Extraction of combustion air in the room - 2

natural_image Technical diagram of a vertical structure with directional arrows and brick wall, labeled Fig. 14 (no text or symbols on the diagram itself)

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Extraction of combustion air in the room - 3

If one or more extraction fans (extractor hoods) are present and operating in the installation room, combustion malfunctions may occur due to lack of combustion air.

6.5 Flue gas fitting

The appliance works with the combustion chamber at negative pressure. It is therefore essential to make sure that the flue gas evacuation is airtight (this is the responsibility of the installer).

The appliance must be connected to its own gas flue, not shared, and which is suitable for ensuring adequate dispersion of the combustion products into the atmosphere, in accordance with the regulations in force in the country of installation.

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Flue gas fitting - 1

The components that make up the gas flue evacuation system must be declared suitable for the specific operating conditions and provided with CE marking.

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Flue gas fitting - 2

It is mandatory to create a first vertical section measuring at least 1.5 meters to guarantee correct expulsion of the flue gases.

It is advisable to make a maximum of 3 direction changes, in addition to that resulting from the rear connection of the appliance to the chimney, using 45 - 90° bends or Tee fittings (Fig. 16).

Always use a Tee fitting with inspection cap at each horizontal and vertical change of the gas flue path (B - Fig. 16).

The horizontal sections must have a maximum length of 2-3 m with an upwards slope of 3-5% (Fig. 16).

Anchor the pipes with suitable collars to the wall. The flue gas fitting MUST NOT BE connected:

  • to a chimney used by other generators (boilers, stoves, fireplaces, etc. ...);
  • to air extraction systems (hoods, vents etc. ...) even if "ducted".

It is forbidden to install shut-off and draught valves.

7.6 Fuel optimisation

Excellent fuel depends on different factors (type of installation, operating and maintenance conditions, type of pellets, etc.)

Upon first ignition, it is possible to optimise the combustion of the stove.

Generally speaking, if at the end of combustion, there is a lot of residue in the burn pot, you should change the combustion configuration (by increasing the value) until you find the best solution.

Refer to the "Fuel" Function paragraph of the Use and functionality manual.

Depending on the type of installation it is necessary to set up the ideal configuration for correct operation.

Two different configurations are possible:

Description Configuration

Room probe (default) 1
Room thermostat 2

8.1 Configuration 1 - Room probe

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Configuration 1 - Room probe - 1

text_image 22.15 20.3 °C 6 1 Termostato esterno T Sonda temperatura ambiente 6 5 4 3 2 1 Fig. 38

In configuration 2 the appliance is controlled by an external thermostat (or chronothermostat) (not supplied) which turns the appliance on and off according to the temperature set (Fig. 38).

When the temperature is satisfied, the thermostat opens the circuit and switches off the stove. The stove switches back on automatically when the temperature falls below the value set on the external thermostat (closed circuit).

This configuration can also be used to turn the appliance on and off manually or in a programmed way (with the Timer function active) without the aid of an external thermostat, to do this it is necessary to put a bridge between the two terminals.

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Configuration 2 - Room thermostat - 2

In this configuration the appliance turns off when the external thermostat is satisfied, or it will modulate the power (to keep consumption to a minimum) when the set water temperature is reached.

10 MAINTENANCE

Maintenance operations must be performed by an authorised technical assistance centre.

Before performing any maintenance operation, take the following precautions:

  • Ensure that all appliance parts are cold.
  • Make sure that the ashes are completely extinguished.
  • Use personal protective equipment provided for by Directive 89/391/EEC.
  • Make sure that the general line switch is turned off.
  • Make sure that the power supply cannot be accidentally reactivated. Remove the plug from the wall socket.
  • Always use appropriate equipment for maintenance.
  • Once maintenance or repair operations have been completed, before putting the appliance back into service, reinstall all the safety guards and reactivate all the safety devices.

10.1 Maintenance of the smoke system

To be performed at least once a year, or every 40 tons of burned pellets.

If there are horizontal sections, it is necessary to check and remove any deposits of ash and soot before they obstruct the passage of fumes.

In the event of failure to clean or inadequate cleaning the appliance may have operating problems including:

  • bad combustion;
  • blackening of the glass;
  • blockage of the burn pot with accumulation of ash and pellets;
  • deposit of ash and excessive deposits on the exchanger with consequent poor performance.

10.2 Appliance maintenance

To be carried out at least once a year, or every time the appliance signals maintenance request.

During the maintenance operation, the technician must:

  • clean the flue gas transit area thoroughly and completely;
  • check the condition and tightness of all the seals;
  • check the condition of all internal components and make sure they are clean;
  • make sure the flue gas outlet connection is sealed and clean;
  • remove any deposits of pellet residues in the tank;
  • check that there are no pellets or pellet residues in the appliance installation space;
  • check the correct operation of the appliance;
  • reset any warnings or alarms.

10.4 Smoke exhaust duct cleaning

At least once a season it is necessary to remove the front cap of the stove and to remove the ash collection cap and clean the smoke collector with an ash vacuum cleaner and a brush. To achieve this it is necessary to open the door and access the compartment by removing the two inspection caps as shown in the figure (Fig. 42 - Fig. 43 - Fig. 44).

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Smoke exhaust duct cleaning - 1

Maintenance does not pose particular problems and must be carried out in compliance with the prescriptions of the Technical Data Sheet. For the MICHELLE model, to ensure durability, maintenance and cleaning, it is necessary to take into account the structure of the exhaust circuit of the combustion products in the stove and the presence of a compartment for collecting the soot inside it. Maintenance and cleaning must be carried out in compliance with the specific provisions contained in the Technical Data Sheet. The seals must be replaced, if necessary, on the access panels to the combustion products circuit.

Possible discolouration of the internal door frame is due to combustion temperatures and ashes and does not preclude normal stove operation.

10.5 Cleaning the inside of the fire box

Daily or before each ignition, it is necessary to check that the burn pot is clean to ensure the free flow of combustion air from the holes of the burn pot itself.

Vacuum the ash accumulated in the burn pot (Fig. 45).

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Cleaning the inside of the fire box - 1

Remove the ash from the combustion chamber because the salts present cause corrosion of the metal. In addition, the ash could block the passage of air, varying the development of the flame which, if it approaches the glass, would increase corrosion.

After cleaning the burn pot, remove it from its housing and clean the space where it is contained (Fig. 45).

If the brazier is not properly positioned, the stove may present problems such as failed or delayed ignition, rather than incorrect combustion.

10.6 Cleaning the glass

This is done with a damp cloth or damp paper towel passed through the ash.

Rub until the glass is clean.

Do not clean the glass while the stove is on and do not use abrasive sponges.

Palazzetti Ecofire Michelle 8 air - Cleaning the glass - 1

Do not use solvents, acids, soaps, liquid detergents or aggressive products.

10.7 Cleaning the flue manifold

After cleaning the burn pot, remove it from its housing and clean the space where it is contained.

Remove the ash drawer and, using a special ash vacuum, remove any residues in the compartment that contains it. Use a flexible brush to clean the exchanger pipes in the combustion chamber (Fig. 48).

Remove any residues that fall in the flue manifold using an ash vacuum.

The Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line, which is a stylistic or background element (like a rule line on paper). According to Rule 2, such lines must be ignored by the OCR result. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of underscores. Underscores are not equivalent to a solid line and are not permitted under the “Stylistic/Background Lines (Ignore)” rule. Outputting underscores for a stylistic line is incorrect because it misinterprets the line as a fill-in-the-blank placeholder. Since the OCR output incorrectly rendered underscores for a stylistic line, this violates the “Stylistic/Background Lines (Ignore)” rule. Therefore, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.

The Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line. According to Rule 2 (UNDERSCORE & LINE RULES), this is a stylistic or background line, not a placeholder underscore. Therefore, the OCR result must ignore it and output nothing or only meaningful text. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of four underscores. This is an incorrect interpretation of the line as a placeholder, violating the rule that stylistic lines must be ignored. The OCR has hallucinated placeholder underscores where none should exist in the GT. Hence, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.
