2.7. Test for spillage
A spillage test must be performed before the installed
fire is left with the customer.
•
Carry out the test first by closing all doors and windows
in the room containing the fire.
•
Ensure that the stove has been burning at full rate for
a minimum of 5 minutes.
•
Using a smoke match run along the top edge of the
draught diverter.
•
If most of the smoke is not drawn into the draught
diverter leave for a further 10 minutes and repeat the
test. If the same results are achieved then the
appliance has passed the spillage test.
•
If there is a fan in a nearby room the spillage test must
be repeated with the fan running and all connecting
doors between the fire and fan left open.
•
If there are still problems the chimney may require
attention.

2.8.1. Troubleshooting chart
Piezo-electric igniter : T h e s p a r k b e t w e e n th e
electrode and the head of the pilot light is not
clean ; there is no spark when the lighter is operated.
-
Check the contact of the high tension cable of the
spark plug. When the end of the cable is held at about
3 mm from the end of the spark plug, a spark should
be produced when the piezo-elertric igniter is
operated.
-
Check that the insulation of the spark plug is not
cracked, and replaoe the spark plug if necessary.
The thermocouple : When the unit is started up, the
pilot light flame goes out when the handle is turned from
the “ignite” position to the “pilot light” position.
•
T h e th e rmo co up le is no t a t a high e n ou gh
temperature, the pilot light flame is too short.
-
Check that the injector (rep. 10, fig. 9, p. 10) is not
partially blocked.
To gain access to the injector, the coals and the burner
must first be dismounted (3 screws).
•
Bad contact at the connection of the thermocouple
to the valve.
-
Check the tightness of the screw. It should be
reasonably tight.
•
Carbon deposit on the end of the thermocouple,
which reduces temperature transmission.
-
Clean the end of the thermocouple with emery paper.
2.8.2. Servicing instructions
These instructions are meant to be used in conjunction
with the normal servicing practices which an installer
would normally use.
-
Open the stove door by releasing the door latch.
-
Remove the coals carefully and replace any which are
damaged or broken.
-
Clean any deposition of lint off the burner. This can be
done with a vacuum cleaner.
-
Inspect the burner unit.
-
Relay the fire in line with the instructions “arranging
the layout of the coals”.
-
There should be no need to service the burner. If
however this is required, a CORGI registered fitter
should check the setting pressure at the nozzle on the
gas inlet of the burner. The correct pressure required
is stated on the data information plate.
Please explain to the customer the lighting and
extinguishing procedures.
