Ventilation requirements
The use of a gas cooking appliance re-
sults in the production of heat and mois-
ture in the room in which it is installed.
Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated:
keep natural ventilation holes open or
install a mechanical ventilation device
(mechanical extractor hood). Prolonged
intensive use of the appliance may call for
additional ventilation, for example, open-
ing of a window, or more effective venti-
lation, for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.
The room containing the appliance should
have an air supply in accordance with BS
5440: Part 2: 1989:
All rooms require an openable window, or
equivalent, and some rooms will require a
permanent vent as well.
For room volumes up to 5m³ an air vent
of 100cm² is required.
If the room has a door that opens directly
to the outside, or the room exceeds
10m³, NO AIR VENT is required.
For room volumes between 5m³
10m³ an air vent of 50cm² is required.
If there are other fuel burning appliances
in the same room, BS 5440: Part 2: 1989
should be consulted to determine the air
vent requirements.
This appliance must not be installed in a
bed sitting room of less than 20m³ or in
a bathroom or shower room.
