The minimum allowable distance from the outside of the appliance fascia to a
corner wall having combustible material or any other combustible surface which
projects beyond the front of the appliance is 100mm at either side (See figure 1). A
clearance of 100mm should be maintained at the right side in all installations to allow
satisfactory access to the control knob. Although no side clearance is necessary to non-
combustible surfaces on the left hand side we recommend a 100mm clearance for
service access to the fascia side fixings.
4.9
The appliance is fitted with an A.S.D (Atmosphere sensing device). If the
appliance closes down after a period of operation for no apparent reason, the consumer
should be informed to stop using the appliance until the installation and appliance have
been thoroughly checked. The A.S.D will shut the appliance down if an unacceptable
amount of harmful products of combustion accumulate. Under no circumstances should
the A.S.D be altered or bypassed in any way. Only genuine manufacturers replacement
parts should be fitted.
4.10
Allow a minimum clearance of
150mm
from the top surface of the appliance
fascia to the underside of any shelf whether it is made from
non-combustible
materials.
This clearance is necessary to allow the fascia to be lifted off for servicing.
For a shelf made from
wood or other combustible materials deeper than 150mm,
the
minimum clearance must be as below. Important : No combustible material (e.g.
Wallpaper, plastic tiling, wood panelling etc.) must be used on the fireplace wall below
the shelf.
•
For a shelf up to 150mm deep
: Minimum clearance = 150mm.
•
For a shelf deeper than 150mm
: 150mm + 12.5mm for every 25mm depth over
150mm (See Graph 1).
