Check For Spillage
A spillage check must be made before leaving the installed appliance with the
customer. Make this with all the ceramic coals in position.
Close all doors and windows in the room containing the appliance.
1.
Light the appliance and set the slide control to the maximum burning position.
2.
Leave the appliance on for five minutes.
3.
The smoke match should be placed horizontally into the hotbox at the right hand side.
4.
(See figure 47).
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 to the
fireplace surround. If the sealing is
satisfactory but the appliance is
installed with the flue restrictor (see
section 7 point 8) remove the
restrictor, reseal the appliance and
retest. If smoke is still not drawn into
the appliance disconnect the
appliance and seek expert advice.
If the above test is satisfactory
5.
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 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.
