2. APPLIANCE DATA
The efficiency of this appliance has been measured as specified in BS 7977 - 1 and the
result is as below :
Model
Efficiency % (Gross)
941
55
941 when converted to LPG.
53
The gross calorific value of the fuel has been used for this efficiency calculation. The
test data from which it has been calculated has been certified by Advantica Certification
services (0087). The efficiency value may be used in the UK Government's Standard
Assessment Procedure (SAP) for energy rating of dwellings.
The convertion of
net
efficiency to
gross
was achieved by multiplying the net efficiency
by the following conversion factor from Table E3 of SAP 2005, rounding down to the
nearest whole number.
This product uses fuel effect pieces and burner compartment walls containing
Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres.
Excessive exposure to these materials may cause irritation to eyes, skin and
respiratory tract. Consequently, it is important to take care when handling these
articles to ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum. To ensure that the
release of fibres from these RCF articles is kept to a minimum, during installation
and servicing we recommend that you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any
dust and soot accumulated in and around the fire before and after working on the
fire. When replacing these articles we recommend that the replaced items are not
broken up, but are sealed within a heavy duty polythene bag, clearly labelled as
RCF waste. RCF waste is classed as a stable, non-reactive hazardous waste and
may be disposed at a landfill licensed to accept such waste. Protective clothing is
not required when handling these articles, but we recommend you follow the
normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area and
always wash your hands before eating or drinking. This appliance does not contain
any component manufactured from asbestos or asbestos related products.
