4.2. In case of fuel gas smell appearance


Turn off the fireplace

Open windows and doors

Seek instructions or help from a qualified person or
your serviceman
In case that the chimney has caught fire (which can be
diagnosed by some of the following ways: visually - there can
be seen glittering sparks or flame on the upper output side of
the chimney, by hearing – muffled roar, blare or rumble
inside the chimney, and by touching only if it is possible
because of a danger of burn – unusually high temperature of
the chimney flue) stop the fireplace operation. All openings
on the fireplace (burner's door) must be closed and sealed.
Possible additional openings on the chimney (door for
cleaning and possible spare openings) should also be closed
and made sure they will not self-open because of the
increased pressure of the gases in the chimney. During
burning and later after self quenching and cooling the
chimney should be constantly monitored and all noticed
critical spots should be controlled. It is strictly forbidden to
cool the chimney directly by water in order to put it out since
by doing that we will certainly cause a chimney explosion and
fire in the building. It is allowed, in case of need, to cool
endangered objects in the vicinity of the burning chimney if
you think that they can be caught by fire. Beside all these
safety measures you should also inform a fireman on duty of
the competent fire station by dialling number 123.
