TermoSovrana DSA26 7094211 – ENappliance; to avoid this, it is necessary to intubate the appliance for its entire height. A section which is too smallcauses a reduction in draught.The flue must be suitably distanced from flammable or combustible material using suitable insulation or anair space.It is FORBIDDEN to pass system piping or air ducts inside the flue. It is also forbidden to create moveable or fixedopenings on the flue itself, for the connection of further different appliances.IMPORTANT: refer to chapter 16.5.1. POSITION OF THE CHIMNEY POTThe flue draught depends on the suitability of the chimney pot.It is therefore essential that, if built in a handcrafted way, the exit section is more than twice the internal section of theflue. As it must always go past the ridge of the roof, the chimney pot must ensure exhaust even in the presence ofwind. (Picture 6).The chimney pot must meet the following requirements:• have an internal section equivalent to that of the chimney.• have a useful exit section of double the internal section of the flue.• be built so as to prevent rain, snow or any foreign body entering the flue.• be easy to inspect, for any maintenance and cleaning operations.Picture 6Picture 7Picture 8(1) Industrial chimney potwith prefabricatedcomponents, allowingexcellent flue gasdisposal.(2) Handcrafted chimneypot.

If this is not the case, raise the pot byat least 1 m above the obstacle.The chimney pot must surpass the roof ridge by at least 1 m.2 m 10 m1m
