Installation Notes

Alfa's manual calls for a flat, stable, fireproof surface and at least 8 in (20 cm) from walls or other equipment, 20 in (50 cm) around the flue and 1 m above the oven. The oven is for outdoor use; Alfa says not to place it under a roof or pergola without the proper chimney, and any roof penetration needs a listed double wall chimney with the required clearances. Burn only dry hardwood and do not exceed 500 C on the pyrometer, since overfiring is excluded from the warranty. In New York City, wood-burning appliances face DEP and FDNY limits, so check what your property allows before you buy. Talk to our design team about placement, a base or a built-in island.
