exits from one terminal only and that the termination is suitable. Observe where
possible, upstairs rooms and loft spaces for signs of escaping smoke indicating a
defective flue. If there is not a definite flow warm the flue for a few minutes and repeat
the smoke pellet test. If there is still no definite flow the flue may need remedial work –
Do not fit the appliance until there is a definite flow through the flue.
6. IGNITION CHECK
Before attempting to install, it is worth checking that the
ignition system performs satisfactorily.
!
Set the control knob to the ‘OFF’ position.
!
Depress the control knob and rotate it anticlockwise to
the ‘pilot ignition’ position. A 'click' will be heard as the
integral piezo operates. A spark should be seen between
the electrode and pilot tip. If there is no spark check the
following: -
!
Ensure that the electrode lead is connected to the
terminal at the base of the electrode.
!
If the above is correct, check for damage to the
electrode lead.
7. GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION
A nut and olive are provided for an 8mm pipe inlet connection to the inlet elbow at the
bottom front of the appliance. The inlet elbow can be rotated to allow a connection from
any direction. The inlet elbow includes a valve for isolating the gas supply and a
pressure test point.
The supply pipe must be rigid material. Flexible pipe must not be used.
Concealed supply pipe connection.
If a concealed connection from inside the fireplace is required then
,
before the
appliance is fitted into the fireplace
it will be necessary to extend the supply line so
that it will project through the hole in the back of the hotbox and run to the inlet elbow
at the front. The pipe run from the supply line up to the rear opening in the hotbox must
be kept away from the area which will be taken by the hotbox when it is installed. Note
that the centre of the appliance inlet elbow is 25mm above the fireplace floor. The inlet
elbow should be fitted to the supply pipe at this stage.
