must be made following standard practice. To correctly adjust the extraction grilles, distribute 90% of
the air blown into the premises between all of the rooms.
Measures must be taken to avoid gas backdrafts in the room from the exhaust pipes of gas appliances
or other open fire appliances (for the duct fans and the partition wall fans).
All other extraction devices installed under other regulations (e.g. gas appliances) must not be altered.
3.5 Door undercuts
Undercuts must be made under all doors in the premises. The space required between the floor and
the bottom of the door is as follows:
▪
1 cm for all doors including the kitchen door if it has at least 2 access doors.
▪
2 cm for the kitchen door if it has only one access door and for all doors to rooms equipped
with an appliance connected to the gas.
3.6 Sensor installation location
3.6.1
Preferred locations within a domestic or commercial environment
The recommendation is to install the sensor:

At least 1 metre from the ground if the sensor is placed on furniture or on a shelf (using the
removable stand supplied with the INSAFE+ Carbon model)
-
At least 1.5 metres from the ground if the sensor is wall-mounted (attached with screws and
wall plugs)
To obtain data as close as possible to the user, we advise sticking to the recommended locations.
