CHECKING FOR CLEARANCE OF COMBUSTION PRODUCTS
a)
Close all doors and windows in the room.
b)
Light the fire and allow to run for approximately 5 minutes on high
position.
c)
After approximately 5 minutes hold a smoke match 10mm inside and
10mm below the centre of the lower front edge of the top of the fire. (It
is recommended that a suitable smoke match holder is used when
checking for clearance of combustion products). All smoke generated
should be drawn back into the flue. If slight spillage occurs or if in
doubt, repeat the test after a further 5-10 minutes.
d)
If spillage persists, remove the flue restrictor baffle and re-test from
cold. If the product then still shows signs of spillage, the flue is not
functioning correctly and a fault exists. If, after investigation the fault
cannot be traced and rectified, the fire must be disconnected from the
gas supply and expert advice obtained.
e)
If there is an extractor fan fitted any where in the vicinity of the
appliance, or in adjacent rooms the spillage test should be repeated
with the fan running on maximum and all interconnecting doors open.
f)
After ensuring that the fire is safe to use it should be left on high
position to fully warm up. During this time a slight odour may be
noticed, this is due to the "newness" of the fire and will soon disappear.
At this stage any minor adjustments to the coals should be made
using suitable long handled tongs and taking care not to damage the
coals.
Finally, hand the Installation and Maintenance Instructions and the
Users Instructions over to the customer and explain the operation of the
fire.
