WARNING: Fire Guards
This appliance is not fitted with an integral guard. In normal
use consideration may be given to the use of a fireguard
conforming to BS6539 or BS6778, so that the approach to the
appliance is limited such that access to the flame is minimised
It is recommended that a fireguard conforming to the requirements of
BS6539 or BS6778 be fitted if the fire is used in the presence of young
children, the elderly or the infirm.
The installer is to advise the user not to stand too close to the
appliance for prolonged periods of time and warn that loose clothing is
particularly at risk of burning due to the presence of an unguarded
flame.
In addition, the installer is to advise the user against placing
combustible material directly in front of the appliance. Floor coverings,
such as carpets, are considered to be acceptable.
Hearths
For some countries a non-combustible hearth must be fitted in front of
the fire in accordance with National Regulations (e.g. United
Kingdom).
Metal Cast Bowls
Bowls which are manufactured from Cast Metal are sand cast at a UK
Foundry and then Hand Polished for over 15 Hours at the CVO Fire
Factory. Pitting and Air Holes are a normal occurrence and are a part of
the unique quality of such a hand made piece. All Bowls are inspected
and given a full quality control check at the factory. If the Bowl supplied
includes Pitting and Air Holes this will have passed the in-house
inspection and cannot be used to form a Warranty claim. We hope that
you will see that the overall beauty and uniqueness of your CVO Fire
outweighs what is a very minor feature.
