General instructions

The Pecan Eco is tested in accordance with the international EN 13240 standardization, and has an extra additional
standardization for optimally environment-friendly heating devices related to flue gases. The stove can be connected to a flue
tube to which several stoves are connected. The pipe for flue gas extraction has a diameter of 150 millimetres (connection 146
mm external). The Pecan Eco must never be built in.
The heating device must be placed by an acknowledged installer and according to the installation
instructions given below. The national and local rules and regulations for placing and using wood-burning
stoves are equally applicable. WANDERS does not give any guarantee if the Pecan Eco is connected or
installed incompletely or incorrectly.
It is not allowed to place the stove in:
• Arcades and corridors accessible to the public.
• Stairwells, except in buildings with no more than 2 dwellings.
• Spaces where highly flammable or explosive materials are used.
• Spaces where an exhaust system is used or where a mechanical exhaust system is placed, except when the air supply is
taken directly from outside to assure a hazardless combustion.

Preparation

The chimney flue

Before placing the stove you must observe the following points:
• If the stove is connected to an existing chimney, you must first have the chimney professionally cleaned and checked by
a qualified chimney sweep company. Any cut-off valves or stop valves must be removed.
• The flue tube of the stove must be connected with the chimney without diversions.
• The underpressure in the chimney must be at least 12 Pa or 0.12 mbar.
• The chimney flue must always end up in outlet area 1 (see drawing below)
• At the time of placing the stove, the chimney
flue must be clean, leak-proof and without
obstructions, and must have a diameter of 150
mm.
• Any bends in the flue tube must not exceed 45
degrees.
• Ensure that the chimney tube can discharge the
flue gases adequately, properly and safely.
• The values for calculating the chimney tube is
given in the section on Technical Information,
page 62.

Fire Safety

For reasons of fire safety is it important to observe the instructions below before installing the stove.
1. If the floor around the stove is made of combustible material, you must use a floor slab.
2. The back of the fireplace must be at a distance of at least 10 cm from a non-combustible wall.
3. Keep at least a distance of 100 cm between the stove and combustible objects such as curtains, wooden objects
(cupboards and paintings) and glass objects. Keep the same distance from the flue tube.
4. Wooden construction parts within the radiation range of the stove (80 cm from the exterior of the stove) must be covered
with fireproof material.
5. If the flue tube goes through a ceiling and/or roof that consist of flammable materials, the ceiling and the roof must be
covered with fireproof materials all around (about 80 cm). Pay also attention to joisted floor layers and any electric wiring.
6. Keep a distance of at least 50 cm (in all directions) between the stove and supporting steel construction parts.
7. Shield off all combustible materials within a radius of 100 cm from the stove openings with non-combustible materials.
