quired, while if the volume exceeds 11 m³
no air vent is required.
However, if the room has a door which
opens directly to the outside no air vent is
required even if the volume is between 5
m³ and 11 m³.
If there are other fuel burning appliances in

Connection to the gas supply should be
with either rigid or semi-rigid pipe, i.e. steel
or copper.
The connection should be suitable for con-
necting to R 1/2 (1/2 BSP male thread).
When the final connection has been made,
it is essential that a thorough leak test is
carried out on the hob and installation.
Make sure that the main connection pipe
does not exert any strain on the hob.
If you use flexible metal pipes make sure
that they agree to ISO 10380 and ISO
10807 standards. Be careful they do not
come in touch with mobile parts or they are
not squeezed. Also be careful when the
hob is put together with an oven.
