CHECKING FOR CLEARANCE OF COMBUSTION PRODUCTS
a)
Close all doors and windows in the room.
b)
Light the fire and allow to run for approximately 5 minutes on high
position.
c)
After approximately 5 minutes hold a smoke match as shown at the
lower front edge of the draught divereter, as shown below in Fig. 13
It is recommended that a suitable smoke match holder is used when
checking for clearance of combustion products. All smoke generated
should be drawn back into the flue. If slight spillage occurs or if in
doubt, repeat the test after a further 5-10 minutes.
d)
If spillage persists, remove the flue restrictor baffle from the spigot by
removing the spigot itself, the two top screws secure the restrictor baffle
and spigot to the rear of the combustion chamber. If after removing the
flue restrictor baffle spillage still persists, the flue is not functioning
correctly and a fault exists. If, after investigation the fault cannot be
traced and rectified, the fire must be disconnected from the gas supply
and expert advice obtained.
e)
If there is an extractor fan fitted any where in the vicinity of the
appliance, the spillage test should be repeated with the fan running on
maximum and all interconnecting doors open.
f)
After ensuring that the fire is safe to use it should be left on high
position to fully warm up. During this time a slight odour may be
noticed, this is due to the "newness" of the fire and will soon disappear.
Finally, hand the Installation and Maintenance Instructions and the
Users Instructions over to the customer and explain the operation of the
fire.
