The unit must be serviced at least once a year by the installation engineer.
This manual is provided with the product. Please keep it beside the unit.
“All national and local regulations and European Standards shall be complied with when
operating the appliance”.

For your safety, we recommend that:

 You fully read and understand the information detailed in this manual before
handling the pellet-run boiler, which is a biomass heating unit.
 You make sure the hydraulic circuit was correctly assembled and connected to the
water supply before turning on the pellet-run boiler.
 The boiler is not intended for use by children or persons with limited physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, nor by those lacking experience and knowledge, unless
under direct supervision or instruction.
 Do not touch the boiler when barefoot, nor when any part of your body is wet or
humid.
 Do not tamper with safety or adjustment features without the manufacturer's
authorization;
 Do not cover or reduce the size of the vents at the installation area;
 The pellet-run boiler requires good air supply to guarantee correct combustion; as
such, if the unit is kept in an air tight environment or is exposed to other existing
sources of air extraction, its correct functioning may be impeded.
 The existence of vents is a requisite for proper combustion;
 Do not leave the packing materials near children;
 When the unit is operating normally, the boiler door cannot be opened.
 Avoid direct contact with parts of the unit that tend to become hot during
operation;
 Check the existence of any obstructions on the fume duct before turning on the unit
after a long period of inactivity;
 This pellet-run boiler is intended for residential use, within a protected
environment. Safety systems may intervene to shut down the boiler. If this occurs,
contact technical assistance. In any circumstances should you attempt to interfere with
the safety systems;
5
 The pellet-run boiler is a biomass heating unit equipped with an electric fume
extractor. The occurrence of any power failure during its use may prevent fume
extraction and the room will be filled with smoke. For this reason, you should have a
natural fume extraction system, like a chimney, available;
 Solzaima offers an optional safety system that allows you to connect your boiler to
a UPS unit, thus avoiding problems related to a power failure and ensuring that the
fume extractor will continue to operate under such conditions until the complete
extraction of all fumes;
 If you intend to use your boiler when leaving it unattended or while you are away
from home, it is advised that you utilise the safety system specified above to guarantee
its safe functioning in the eventuality of a power failure;
 While in operation, NEVER disconnect the electric plug of your pellet-run boiler.
Seeing as the boiler's fume extractor is power-operated, disconnecting the plug would
prevent the extraction of combustion fumes;
 Your unit must be disconnected from the mains for servicing. Before doing this, the
unit must be totally cooled down (if operating before);
 Never touch the interior of the boiler without first disconnecting it from the power
mains;
 The maximum water temperature (set-point temperature) that the user can set for
the boiler is 80°C. In the event of the boiler reaching a temperature of 95ºC, it will
automatically switch off and activate a corresponding alarm.

3. Advice on action in the event of a fire in a chimney

(includes equipment)
-Try to extinguish the fire without putting your life at risk.
-If within a minute you can not extinguish the fire, you should call the fire
department.
-Close the doors and windows or partition where the fire has flared.
-Disconnect the electric current and close the gas before leaving your home.
-Once outside, you must wait for the firefighters and be ready to give you the
following information: location of the fire, possible materials that are burning
and what they can do to prevent the progression of fire.

 5. Installing the Free Standing Pellet Fire
Before installing the unit, please follow these steps:
 Upon delivery, please check the product for completeness and to determine the
existence of any signs of damage. Any damages or defects should be accounted for
before the unit is installed.
 This unit is equipped with four feet at the base, adjustable in height, allowing for
the easy regulation when installing the unit on a non-leveled surface.

a) b)
Figure 4 – Adjustable feet

 Remove the instruction manual from the package and hand it over to the client;
 Connect an 80 mm-wide duct between the combustion gas output and the outgoing
fume extraction duct of the building (e.g. chimney). See location diagrams, sections
5.1 to 4.3.
 The tube used for combustion air inlet from the outside, if installed, must be
straight (no bends) and have a maximum length of 60cm horizontally;
 Connect the 230VAC power cable to a grounded socket.
 The hot air outlet side of the unit must be installed facing the area to be heated.

5.1. Installation Requirements

The minimum distance between the free standing pellet fire unit and particularly
flammable surfaces is specified in figure 5.
The top of the unit must have a separation distance from the ceiling of at least 100cm,
especially in rooms with ceilings made of flammable materials.
The base used to support the unit cannot be made of combustible materials (e.g.
carpet), so make sure adequate protection is used.

 a) b)
Figure 5 – Minimum separation distance around the unit: a) top view of the unit installation; b) side
view of the unit installation

WARNING!
Keep combustible and flammable materials at a safe distance.

5.2. Installing Ducts and Fume Extraction Systems:

 The exhaust pipe must be designed for this specific purpose, in compliance with
local requirements and any applicable regulations.

 Important notice! An inspection-T with an airtight lid must be attached to the

outlet of the unit’s exhaust pipe to allow for the regular inspection of the system or
discharge of heavy dust and condensates.
 As illustrated in figure 5, the exhaustion path must have inspection slots along the
duct to facilitate the performance of periodic cleaning and maintenance operations.
 Under normal operating conditions, the combustion gas flow should create a
draught of 12 Pa, measured one meter above the chimney neck.
 This unit requires exclusive use of the chimney.

10
 The pipes external to the operating area must have double stainless steel insulation
and an internal diameter of 80mm.
 The fume exhaust pipe may generate condensation, so the installation of
appropriate systems for collecting condensates is recommended.
 “All national and local regulations and European Standards shall be complied with
when operating the appliance”

5.3. Installing Without a Chimney

The installation of the Free Standing Pellet Fire when no chimney is present must be
performed as illustrated in Figure 6, by directing an exhaustion pipe (with a minimum
diameter of 80mm) through the ceiling opening to the outside and over the roof.
Properly attached double-walled stainless steel insulated pipes must be used to avoid
condensation.
A T-tube must be installed at the base of the pipe to allow periodic inspections and
annual maintenance, as illustrated in Figure 6.
figure 7 illustrates the basic requirements for installing the flue onto the unit

12
 c)
Figure 7 – Examples of standard installations.

Failure to comply with these requirements may prevent the correct operation of
the unit, resulting in warranty void. Be sure to follow all the instructions on the
diagrams.

Free Standing Fires operate with the combustion chamber in draught, which is
why it is absolutely necessary that they include a fume exhaust duct to adequately
extract combustion gases.

Fume duct material: The tubing must consist of 0.5mm thick rigid stainless steel,
with fitting bindings to attach the different sections and accessories.

Insulation: The fume ducts must be double-walled and insulated to make sure the
fumes do not cool down going outwards, which could cause an inadequate circulation
and condensation that may damage the unit.

Output “T-tube”: Always attach to the output of the unit a "T-tube" with a damper.

13
Wind shield termination: A wind shield termination must be installed to avoid fume
back flow.

Chimney draught: The Figures below show three standard diagrams, specifying
adequate lengths and diameters. Any other type of installation must guarantee a
draught of 12 Pa (0.12 mbars) measured when hot and at the maximum power.

Ventilation: To get the optimum operation from the unit it is necessary that the
installation location has an air inlet with a minimum section of 100 cm 2,
preferably near the back panel of the unit. The Free Standing Pellet Fire unit is
equipped with a round pipe (Ø 50 mm) that can be connected to the outside of the
household. It is recommended that the connection pipe should measure

up to 60cm long horizontally and run straight (without bends).

If the house is equipped with a air exhaust system (e.g. kitchen extractor
fan), a top ventilation section must be installed, suitable to accommodate the
different air exhaust systems existing in the household. The installation of the
unit on locations near kitchen exhaust fans or fume extractors may prevent
the unit from operating properly. It is recommended that the unit is
disconnected when these extractors are working.

5.4. Installing With a Chimney

As shown in figure 8, the unit is installed by directing the exhaust pipe (com Ø80mm)
directly into the chimney. If the chimney is very large in width, a pipe for fume outlet
80mm inner diameter must be installed.
A T-tube must be attached to the base of the pipe to allow for periodic inspection and
annual maintenance, as illustrated in figure 8.

14
 Figure 8 – Side view of the installation without a chimney, showing the inspection point.

The Free Standing Pellet Fire should not be operated in adverse weather conditions,
because these may seriously impact the draught (particularly with very strong winds).

If the unit has not been used for a long period of time, before lightening the fire, check
the unit to make sure that the flue pipes are clean and unblocked.

6. Hydraulic Installation
* Chapter 16 (installation diagrams) includes diagrams illustrating the range of possible
connections that may be used in the installation of a central heating system, with or
without the feature of heating water for domestic use;

* The pellet-run boiler comes equipped with a circulating pump, an expansion tank with
a volume of 6 litres pre-charge pressure of 1.0 bar, as well as a 3 bar safety valve;

* Operating pressure is between 1 and 1.5 bars;

15
* To empty the unit, attach a "T-tube" with a tap to the outlet (connected to the
household sewage); the safety valve (3 bar) outlet must also be connected to the
household sewage;

* The heat transporting fluid must consist of water mixed with an anti-corrosion, non-
toxic product added in the quantity recommended by the manufacturer. If there exists
any risk of freezing in the space where the boiler is installed, or within its fluid pipes,
the installation engineer must add the manufacturer's recommended quantity of anti-
freeze agent to the circulating fluid, in order to avoid freezing at the absolute minimum
expected temperature.

6.1. Operating mode for radiator/Buffer tank

IMPORTANT! The boiler is programmed to work directly for radiators, in case you
want to install the boiler with a buffer or AQS tank, we recommend changing the
temperature "OFF" of the circulation pump by placing the same temperature as the
deposit or 1 °C higher than this temperature, should disable the "hYDRO Menu" modes
"Modulating Pump" and "hydro independent" and switch the mode display "Auto" to
"Manual" mode and select the power 5 (Fire 5).
You must change the smoke temperatures ("Toff" and "Ton") in the "Activation" menu.
For these changes is necessary to access the "Installer Menu" on the display, please
request a password manufactures.

16
 7. Fuel
The Free Standing Pellet Fire operates exclusively with pellets. No other fuel sources
are allowed to be used.
Only use pellets certified by standard EN 14961-2 grade A1 with a diameter of 6mm
and a length of 10-30mm.
The pellets may have a maximum humidity of 8% their weight. To guarantee a good
combustion, the pellets must maintain these characteristics so it is recommended that
they should be stored in a dry place.
The use of different pellets will reduce the efficiency of the unit and cause deficient
combustion.
Only certified pellets should be used and a sample must be tested before
buying large bulks.
The physicochemical properties of the pellets (namely, calibre, friction, density and
chemical composition) may vary within specific tolerances and across manufacturers.
Please note that this may cause changes to the feeding process and, consequently, the
need for different doses (more or less pellet quantity).
Consequently it may be necessary to adjust the pellets quantity according to its quality,
even if the pellets are certified.
The unit allows for an adjustment of +15%/-33% the pellet dosage at the
start-up phase and at each power level (please see section 8.3.7 of this manual).

WARNING! This unit may NOT be used as an incinerator.

8. Using the Free Standing Pellet Fire

Recommendations
Before starting up the unit, please check the following:
- Ensure the unit is properly connected to the power mains using the 230V AC power
cable.

Figure 9 – Electric power plug

17
- Check if the pellet reservoir is supplied with pellets. Inside the pellet reservoir is a
safety grid to prevent users from reaching the worm screw.

The unit’s combustion chamber and panel door are made of iron plate
painted with high temperature resistant paint which releases fumes during
the initial burn due to the paint’s curing process. Avoid touching the unit
during its first burn to prevent leaving permanent marks on the paint. The
paint goes through a more plastic phase during the curing process. The curing
of the paint occurs at approximately 300ºC for 30 minutes.

Please make sure the room where the unit is installed has adequate air circulation;
otherwise, the unit will not work properly. For this reason, it is important to check if
there are any other air-consuming heating appliances present in the room (e.g. gas
units, braziers, extractors, etc.); these should not be used simultaneously with the
unit.
This Free Standing Pellet Fire unit has a probe for measuring the room temperature.
This probe is attached to the grid at the rear panel (Figure 9). For a good reading of
the room temperature, avoid the contact between the end of the probe and the unit
surfaces. You may also attach the probe to the wall beside the unit.

13. Maintenance
13.1. Daily Maintenance

The Free Standing Pellet Fire unit requires careful maintenance (see label with the
maintenance instructions in chapter 15 or located on the pellets lid, Figure 23). The
most important thing is to periodically remove the ashes from the pellet burning area.
For your convenience, you may use a household vacuum cleaner. The cleaning
operation must be performed after burning approximately 66lbs (30kg) of pellets.
Note: However, before cleaning, the power of the unit must be turned off and the unit
should be allowed to cold off to prevent any accident.

Figure 23 – Maintenance instruction label

Figure 24 – Cleaning burning basket

13.2. Weekly Maintenance

Remove the burning basket and the ash basket and vacuum both. The interior of the
unit must also be cleaned by opening the hatch, as shown in . Finally, assemble the
parts in the reverse order to which they were removed and close the unit door.

41
Backboiler Model
To perform maintenance on the backboiler model, clean the airflow pipes. To do this,
raise the lid on the top of the unit and then lift the levers inside several times (Figure
25) to make the dirt accumulated inside the pipes fall out.

 WARNING! The maintenance task frequency depends on the quality of the
pellets.

Note: See the warning label and read the maintenance instructions in chapter 12.

13.3. Additional Cleaning

Additional cleaning should be performed for every 1300-1700 lbs (600-800 kg) of
pellets consumed.
Remove the side covers to access the side lids of the combustion chamber. To clean the
interior of the unit, remove the lid and vacuum the ashes. Using a 20-25mm wide
80cm long steel brush thoroughly clean the fume ducts (figure 28)

Figure 28 – Cleaning Vacuum the interior

If you noticed that the fume extraction is not effective, we recommend cleaning the
interior of the extractor with a vacuum cleaner, as shown in figure 29-a e b.
Regardless, this operation should be performed, at least, once a year.

the following deadline:

3.2.1 Within 60 (sixty) days from the date the non-compliance was detected,
in case the Product is applied to domestic use;

3.2.2 Within 30 (thirty) days from the date the non-compliance was detected,
in case the Product is applied to professional use;

3.3 During the Warranty period specified under clause 3.1 above (to make sure the
Warranty is valid), any Product servicing operations must be exclusively performed by
the manufacturer’s technical services representative. All servicing under the scope of
this Warranty shall be performed from Monday to Friday within the working hours and
calendar legally established in each region.

3.4 Any service request must be sent to SOLZAIMA S.A. Customer Service via the
following email: [email protected]. Upon the technical servicing of the Product,
the Buyer must provide the technician with a document certifying the Product is in the
62
Warranty Period, namely the proof of purchase or other document supporting the
purchase. In any case, the document certifying that the Product is in the Warranty
Period must include the identification of the Product (as per clause 2 above) and the
date of purchase Alternatively, and to make the Product Warranty valid, the Client may
provide the PSR - the certifying document of the unit start-up (when applicable).

3.5 The Product must be installed by a specialized technician, qualified to install the
Product in compliance with the regulations applicable in the Client's geography, namely
those regarding the chimney, as well as other applicable regulations concerning water
supply, power supply and/or other utilities related to the use of the equipment or
sector, as described in the Instruction Manual. This Warranty shall be void in case of
non-compliance of the Product installation with the manufacturer’s specifications
and/or any applicable law in force. Should be Product be installed on the exterior of a
building, it must be protected from weather conditions, namely rain and wind. In this
case, it may be necessary to protect the unit with a cabinet or a protection box
properly ventilated.

3.6 The units cannot be installed in locations with chemicals agents in the atmosphere,
in saline or high humidity environments. The combination of these agents with oxygen
(air) may cause the quick corrosion of the combustion chamber to. In these
environments, it is recommended that the units are protected with proper anticorrosion
products, specially between periods of usage. We recommend the application of
graphite wax specific for high temperatures to lubricate and protect the unit from
corrosion.

3.7 For the equipments that use pellets, in addition to the daily and weekly
maintenance procedures described in the Instruction Manual, it is also mandatory to
clean the interior of the unit, as well as the fume exhaust chimney. These operations
should be performed at every 600-800 kg of used pellets for Free Standing Fire units
(air and water models) and Compact Boilers, and at every 2000-3000 kg of used
pellets for Automatic Boilers. If the used quantity of pellets is under these Figures, at
least a thorough preventive maintenance operation must be performed annually.

3.8 The Buyer is responsible for the execution of the periodic maintenance operations,
as set forth in the Product’s instruction and handling manuals provided with the unit.
When requested, a proof of maintenance must be produced, which includes the

63
technical report from the entity responsible for executing such procedures or,
alternatively, the filled in maintenance log provided in the corresponding section of the
instruction manual.

3.9 To avoid damages to the equipment due to overpressure, safety measures must be
taken during the installation of the unit, namely by installing pressure safety valves or
thermal safety valves, as applicable, as well as an expansion vase suited to the size of
the installation and operating properly. Please note: The above mentioned valves must
have a pressure rating equal or less than the pressure supported by the equipment. No
cutting valve must exist between the equipment and respective safety valve. A
thorough preventive maintenance plan must be in place to ensure the proper operation
of all the safety mechanisms. Regardless of the type of equipment, every safety valve
must be directed to siphoned drainage to prevent damages to the house caused by
water discharges. The Product’s Warranty does not include damages caused by the lack
of a piping system for the water discharging from such valve.

3.10 To prevent damages to the equipment and attached pipes due to galvanic
corrosion, we recommend using dielectric separators to connect the equipment to the
metallic pipes, since the applied materials may have components that enhance this
type of corrosion. The Product’s Warranty does not include damages caused by failure
to use the dielectric separators mentioned above.

3.11 The water or thermal fluid used for the heating system (water models of Free
Standing Fire units, Boilers, Central Heating Stoves, etc.) must comply with the
requirements of the applicable law, in addition to ensuring the following physical and
chemical properties: absence of solid suspended particles; low conductivity level;
residual hardness within 5 to 7 French degrees; neutral pH, close to 7; low
concentration of chloride and iron; and absence of air inlets by draught, or other inlets.
In case the installation promotes automatic water make-up, this system must
accommodate an upstream preventive treatment system consisting of filtration,
decalcification and preventive dosage of polyphosphates (encrustation and corrosion),
as well as a degassing step, if necessary. In the event any of these indicators show
figures different from the recommended values, the Warranty shall be void.

64
3.12 Except in cases expressly provided by law, a servicing operation performed during
the Warranty period does not renew the Product’s Warranty period. The rights arising
from the Warranty are not transferable to the Buyer of the Product.

3.13 The equipment must be installed in locations with easy access that present no risk
for the technicians. The Buyer is responsible to provide full access to the equipment for
servicing, and any related costs shall be paid by the Buyer.

3.14 The Warranty is valid for the Products and equipment sold by SOLZAIMA S.A. only
and exclusively within the geographic area and territory in the country where the
Product was sold by SOLZAIMA S.A..
