Discolouration of wall surfaces
Most heating appliances generate warm air convection currents
and transfer heat to any wall surface against which they are
situated.
Some soft furnishings (such as blown vinyl wallpapers) may not
be suitable for use where they are subject to temperatures
above normal room levels and the manufacturer's advice should
be sought before using this type of wall covering adjacent to any
heating appliance.
The likelihood of wall staining from convected air currents will be
increased in environments where high levels of tobacco smoke
or other contaminants exist.

a minimum, during installation and servicing it is recommended
that a H.E.P.A. filtered vacuum is used to remove any dust, soot
or other debris accumulated in and around the appliance. This
should be performed before and after working on the
installation.
It is recommended that any replaced item(s) are not broken up
but sealed within heavy duty polythene bags and clearly labelled
