Good Morning,
I have a question about an Rika (Austroflamm) Integra II I just purchased, which was manufactured in June 2009. I am very familiar with the Austroflamm stoves as this one replaced an Integra manufactured in 1991 or 92. My question relates with the fresh air intake. On the new stove there is a nice plastic fitting to connect the outside air flexible pipe to, unlike the old stove where the outside air pipe extends through the cabinet and connects to the steel pipe of the stove. So, my problem is, if the outside air pipe is connected to the plastic fitting, the fitting doesn't extend inside the cabinet to connect to the steel pipe of the stove, so, in essence, there is a couple inch gap between where the flex pipe connects to the stove and the actual steel pipe headed toward the air sensor and burn pot. Is this correct, and if so, how does it receive any outside air if this is the case?
Hope this makes sense. Any help and advice is appreciated.
