In A Emergency; Flue - LA NORDICA TERMOSUPREMA Compact Handbuch

Ensure children are aware of these dangers and keep them away from the furnace when it is on.
When using the wrong fuel or one which is too damp, due to deposits present in the flue, a flue fire is
possible.

4.1. IN A EMERGENCY

If there is a fire in the flue connection :
a) Close the loading door and the ash drawer door
b) Close the comburent air registers
c) Use carbon dioxide ( CO2 powder ) extinguishers to put out the fire
d) Request the immediate intervention of the Fire Brigade
Do not put out the fire with water.
When the flue stops burning, have it checked by a specialist to identify any cracks or permeable points.

5. FLUE

Essential requirements for correct appliance operation:
•
the internal section must preferably be circular;
•
the appliance must be thermally insulated and impermeable and built with suitable materials which
are resistant to heat, combustion products and any condensation;
•
there must be no narrowing and vertical passages with deviations must not be greater than 45° ;
•
if already used, it must be clean;
•
the technical data from the instruction manual must be respected;
If the flues are of a square or rectangular section, the internal edges must be rounded with a radius of not
less than 20 mm. For the rectangular section, the maximum ratio between the sides must be ≤ 1.5.
A section which is too small causes a reduction in draught. A minimum height of 4 m is advisable.
The following are forbidden and therefore jeopardise the correct operation of the appliance: asbestos
cement, galvanised steel, rough and porous internal surfaces. Picture 4 shows some example solutions.
