Flue Termination

The Flue Terminal shall be located 

so that wind from any direction is not 

likely to create a downdraught in the 

flue. A Flue Cowl, AGA approved to 

AS4566 (AG604) must be fitted to the 

end of the flue pipe. The minimum 

flue length must not be shorter than 

3.5 metres. Maintain a minimum of 

500mm from the bottom of the flue 

cowl to the nearest part of the roof 

if the flue cowl is at least 1m from a 

neighbouring structure. If less than 

1m, the flue terminal must be located 

at least 500mm above that structure. 

Refer to AS5601 - 2004 (AG601) 

sections 5.13.6.2 and 5.13.6.4 to 

ensure that the location of the flue 

terminal fully complies for installations 

with a trafficable roof, a chimney, 

another flue terminal or near any 

openings into a building.

HOW TO SET GAS PRESSURES

PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT FOR CAMPFYRE LOG

GRL-24, GRL-700, GRL-830, GRL-850

It is critical that all gas products be properly installed.  Proper installation must include:

1.  Vent configuration  in line with requirements stated in manual.
2.  Vent cap/terminal meets all clearance stated in manual.
3.  Gas pressure is checked and adjusted at the time of installation.

Note:

   Pressures must be checked and adjusted to the correct specified    

 

 

pressure otherwise warranty will be invalid.

The pressure is measured on the gas valve and the regulator can be adjusted by turning the 

screws on the gas valve located either side of the pressure test points.  (Refer to diagram 

in installation manual).
If the gas pressure is not checked it can lead to “sooting”, “delayed ignition” or performance 

issues.  Proper gas outlet pressure ensures that the fireplace is operating within the 

standards it was tested.
Ensure that the gas pressure does not change when other gas appliances in the home are 

activated.  If the “inlet” pressure into the gas fireplace was to change when other appliances 

are activated this will cause the pilot flame to reduce in size, drop the millivolt output and 

possibly cause the unit to shut down.
Reminder:  The inlet pressure of the gas fireplace is an unregulated pressure.  Only the 

outlet pressure is held by the regulator located on the front of the gas valve.
Once installation is complete, it is imperative to do a smoke test to ensure that the gas 

fumes are consistently drawn up the flue.
* This page does not take the place of the manual for each individual product, but is merely 

stressing the above points.  Always read and understand the manual prior to installing 

any fireplace product.

Thank you for ensuring that our products are installed and operated safely.

Pressure “taps” are located at the face of the valve.  There are two taps, one marked “

IN

” 

and the other marked “

OUT

”.

-   To check gas pressure simply turn the brass screw located in the “

OUT

” tap 

counter clockwise several turns.

-   Hook up a manometer tube to the “

OUT

” tap.

-   Turn the fireplace on and turn the flame adjustment (if applicable) to high.  The 

outlet pressure should be set to the pressure stated on the  

 

   

 

compliance plate on the floor of the unit.

-   Turn the fireplace off.
-   Remove manometer tube from “

OUT

” tap.

-   Tighten the screw by turning clockwise until snug.
-   Soap water test to check for gas leaks.
