Spillage Testing
A Spillage Test
MUST
be made before the installed fire is left with the customer.
Carry out the test by first closing all doors and windows in the room containing the
fire. Ensure that the fire is burning at full rate for a minimum of 10-15 minutes.
Using a lighted smoke match, run it along under the rear edge of the stove. The
draught diverter box is situated at the rear of the stove, the entry being in the rear
panel for the stove. Observe the smoke being drawn into the dilution box. After 10
minutes repeat the test
If there is an extractor 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 / flue may require attention. Disconnect the
stove and seek expect advice.
Spillage Monitoring System
This appliance is fitted with an atmospheric sensing spillage monitoring system, in
the form of an oxygen depletion-sensing pilot. This is designed to shut down the
fire within a safe period if there is an excessive build up of products of combustion
within the room space. This would usually only occur if the flue path suffered
severe blockage and / or ventilation was severely impeded.
THE FOLLOWING ARE IMPORTANANT WARNINGS RELATIVE TO THE
SPILLAGE MONITORING SYSTEM
1. The installer must not attempt any adjustments to the spillage monitoring
system.
2. There must be no attempt to disable the spillage monitoring system.
3. It is not possible to replace individual parts of the pilot assembly on the
appliance
– only a complete pilot assembly (including thermocouple) may be
fitted in the event of a replacement being necessary. When the spillage
monitoring system is replaced, only complete and original manufactures’
parts may be fitted.
4. Should the appliance turn itself off, wait for a minimum of 3 minutes before
attempting to re-light. In the event of your stove tripping out, consult your
installation engineer to have the flue / chimney checked.
