Check For Spillage - Valor Coalflame BR627 Installer's Manual

8.2 Check For Spillage

A spillage check must be made before leaving the installed
appliance with the customer. Make this check with the
appliance fully installed with the ceramics and fascia
casting in position.
8.2.1 Close all doors and windows in the room containing
the appliance.
8.2.2 Light the appliance and set the slide control to the
maximum burning position.
8.2.3 Leave the appliance on for five minutes.
8.2.4 Fit a smoke match into a tube, light it and insert it into
the appliance canopy at the position shown in Fig.23.
8.2.5 The installation is satisfactory if the smoke is drawn
into the appliance. If the smoke is not drawn into the
appliance, leave the appliance alight at the maximum setting
for a further ten minutes and then repeat the test. If smoke is
still not drawn into the appliance, inspect the sealing to the
fireplace surround. If smoke is still not drawn into the appliance, disconnect the
appliance and seek expert advice.
8.2.6 If the above test is satisfactory, open all internal connecting doors, hatches, etc., in
the room. Keep all doors and windows that open to the outside of the building closed.
Recheck for spillage as above. If an extractor fan is installed in the same room as the
appliance or a connecting room, check that spillage does not occur with the fan operating
and all doors and other openings between the fan and the appliance open.
8.2.7 If the smoke is drawn into the appliance, continue with the installation. If the test
is not satisfactory, disconnect the appliance and advise the customer of the cause of
failure.
