MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance

In order to achieve and maintain high levels of personal safety and performance
efficiency, it is essential that the opening at the back of the fire and the flue are kept clear
of any form of obstruction. It is possible that deposits of mortar or soot could fall and
accumulate causing the flue to be blocked or restricted and so preventing proper
clearance of dangerous exhaust fumes.
In the United Kingdom it is the law that a landlord must have any gas appliance, flue and
pipework which is situated in a tenant’s premises checked for safety at least every twelve
months by a competent person (In the U.K, a CORGI registered installer).
We recommend that all gas appliances and their flues, wherever situated, are checked
annually.

In the United Kingdom servicing can be carried out either by a Valor service engineer
