GAS CYLINDER

 

 

Follow the notes in Section 4 to prepare the gas grate for use. 

 

The gas supply will require at least one 19kg to 48kg LPG cylinder for efficient 
performance. Only a 9kg gas cylinder is allowed indoors. 

 

This appliance requires an operation pressure of 2.8 kPa at the appliance. 

 

A suitable LPG Regulator that complies with the requirements of SANS 1237, 
must be installed on the exterior of the building. 

 

Ensure  that  the  flow  capacity  of  the  installed  Regulator  is  of  a  sufficient 
capacity to drive the gas grate model to be installed. 

 

Do not connect the gas supply to the appliance using a flexible hose. The heat 
from the Gas grate will damage the hose. 

 

Copper piping in accordance to the specifications of SANS 10087-1, must be 
used.  

 

The gas consumption of the gas grates are such that a minimum of 9kg LPG 
cylinder is required. For optimal efficiency we recommend to use a 48Kg LPG 
cylinder.

ASSEMBLEY INSTRUCTIONS

 

 

Supplied  with  the  appliance  is  a  bag  of  vermiculite  chips  –  a  golden 
noncombustible organic substance that is critical to the operation of the gas 
grate. Evenly spread the full quantity supplied inside the burner tray until it is 
level with the edges of the tray. 

 

Place more of the vermiculite to the center of the burner (5-10mm high) to 
ensure they taper down to the edges of the burner tray. 

 

Included too are white natural pebbles stones which vary in size & shape. They 
are used for aesthetic effect and will not have any effect on the performance 

WARNING! 

The appliance comes complete with a 

single ventilation grill

 (250x100mm) that must be  

installed approx. 100mm below the gas grate in the center of the grate 

(SEE FIGURE 3)

  

in order to provide fresh oxygen intake.

 

The grill can be installed on either side of the  

gas grate.  Where the grate is installed close to an exterior wall, the ventilation opening  
can be external.
