Ventilation requirements
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in
the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural
ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor
hood). Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for
example, opening of a window, or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the
level of mechanical ventilation where present.
The room containing the appliance should have an air supply in accordance with BS
5440: Part 2: Latest Edition:
All rooms require an open able window, or equivalent, and some rooms will require a
permanent vent as well.
For room volumes up to 5m³ an air vent of 100cm² is required.
