Spillage Check - Valor Regency OXYSAFE 2 Installer's Manual

A spillage test must be made before the installed
appliance is left with the customer.
1. Close all doors and windows in the room containing the
fire.
2. Light the appliance and set the control knob to the
maximum position (Position 5).
3. Leave the appliance on for five minutes.
4. Place a smoke match tube (with lighted match)
horizontally underneath the radiant box but touching the top
lip of the box. The tube should be between the two vertical
inner ribs of the centre radiant. The tip of the match should
project between 2mm and 5mm beyond the lowest edge of
the radiant box lip. See figure 12.
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 the smoke is
still not drawn into the appliance, inspect the sealing of the closure plate. If the sealing is
satisfactory but the appliance is installed with the flue restrictor in the closed position
(see section 6.5), reopen the restrictor, reseal the appliance and retest. If smoke is still
not drawn into the appliance Disconnect the appliance and seek expert advice
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. If the test is
satisfactory continue with the installation. If the test is not satisfactory disconnect the
appliance and advise the customer of the cause of failure.
