Keep all natural air-vents open or have a mechanical ventilation system
installed (a mechanically ventilated hood).
- Prolonged, intensive use of the hob may require extra ventilation; when
used by a window, for example, or when using more efficient ventilation by in-
creasing the power of the existing mechanical ventilation (a minimum air input of
2cu. m. per hour per kW of gas energy is required).
E.g. this hob :
Total power: 0.85 + 1.5 + 2.3 + 3.1 = 7.75 kW.
7.75 kW x 2 = 15.5 cu. m. per hour minimum flow-rate.
- Using a gas-powered hob produces both heat and humidity in the room where it is used.
Make sure your kitchen is well ventilated.
- As a safety measure, do not forget to
turn off the main control valve
after use for the
mains gas supply or the tap/valve on the butane or propane gas bottle.
