3.16 Propane gas appliances must not be installed in a room, which is built entirely
below ground level (See BS 5871 Pt2).
3.17 If the appliance is to be fitted against a wall with combustible cladding, the
cladding must be removed from the area covered by the outer surround. The cladding
must also not touch the surround. (See figure 4).
We suggest that the actual surround is used as a
template to mark the area for combustible
cladding removal and that this area is increased
by at least 2mm all round.
3.18 The minimum allowable distance from the
outside of the appliance case to a corner wall
having combustible material or any other
combustible surface which projects beyond the
front of the appliance is shown in figure 5.
For access purposes the recommended
clearances to non combustible surfaces are
shown in figure 5.
