INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
FOR QUALIFIED GAS INSTALLER
Unpacking
•
Carefully undo strapping to separate loose parts and remove all plastic
protective sheeting.
•
Confirm that all components for the firepit are present, and accounted for.
Positioning and Sizing
build up a masonry or steel platform to the customers design, with a suitable
space to drop the firepit into, so that it rests on the surrounding rim.
Provide ventilation underneath the platform for the primary air to the burner,
by means of a hole, with a minimum size of 100mm².
Connect up according to SANS 10087-1
Connect a copper pipe from the gas bottle via a regulator complying with
SANS 1237, to the Ø8 compression fitting on the control valve, taking into
account the distance from the gas tank, to calculate the size of the copper
pipe.
Setting up
1. Insert the burner with the venturi facing the gas jet.
2. Fill the burner with the special black radiant Ceramic Ash or Fireglass.
3. Spread the Ceramic Ash or Fireglass evenly around the burner.
NOTE:
Should the burner become dislodged, replace it making sure that it
rests flat on the lip of the designated platform, without any gaps between it
and the plate.
4. Place
Gas Logs
in a tee-pee pattern with large hollow centre, or, in a hash(#)
pattern, spread across the burner evenly, allowing for about 50mm gaps
between layers.
Use only the number of Ceramic Ash and Gas Logs, or Fireglass supplied.
Testing and Commissioning
Turn on the gas supply and test for leaks with soapy water.
Ensure that the
WORKING PRESSURE is 2,8 kPa at the control valve.

Briefing the customer
All instructions must be handed over to the user for safekeeping. Instruct the
customer how to turn the gas on and off and how to light and control the fire.
After commissioning the unit the customer should be instructed on the safe
use of it and the need for regular servicing. Frequency of service depends on
usage, but must be carried out at the first sign of malfunction and at least
once in 2 years.
