Commissioning and Handover
Upon completion of the installation, allow a suitable period of time for any fire cement and mortar to
dry out. A small fire may then be lit and checked to ensure the smoke and fumes are taken from the
stove up the chimney and emitted safely to atmosphere.
Notice plate should be filled out with indelible ink and located either (A) next to the electricity
consumer unit, (B) next to a gas consumer unit or (C) next to the chimney or hearth.
Advise the customer not to run the stove at full output for at 3 – 4 days. Explain that the stoves can
provide much more or less than their rated heat outputs depending upon how they are burnt and fuels
and fuel loads used.
On completion of the installation and commissioning, ensure that the operating instructions and
operating tools (including glove) for the stove are left with the customer. You must be sure to advise
the customer on the correct use of the appliance, along with clear and comprehensive information on
any continuing maintenance required for the effective operation of the appliance in order to protect
the health and safety of the building occupants. Inform them to use only the recommended fuels for
the stove.
Advise the user on what to do should smoke or fumes be emitted into the room from the stove – see
Safety Notes
section. The user should be warned that they
MUST
use a suitable fireguard in the
presence of children, aged and/or infirm persons.
