D. TERMINAL ROOF LOCATIONS
“Distance” = minimum distance required for positioning of the outlet to
avoid adverse effects with respect to:
A. A ventilation opening serving an occupied room, a toilet or a bathroom.
B. A heating air supply, when the supply flows through an occupied room.
C. A window that can be opened and that is near an occupied room,
a toilet or a bathroom.
To avoid adverse effects
Distance : outlet A, B, ou C
At the same roof level
> 6 m (*)
At a diffeerent roof level
> 3 m (*) (**)
At a lower positioned wall
> 2 m (**)
At a higher sloping surface
> 6 m (***)
(*) If the required distance cannot be achieved, the outlet position rules
take precedence.
(**) If the outlet is positioned at least 1 m higher than the intake supply
opening, or a window that can be opened.
(***) If the required distance cannot be achieved, the position of the outlet
must be at least 1 m above the highest facade/roof.
INSTALLATION OF THE STOVE
This appliance must be installed by a qualified (CORGI) gas engineer, and
must be installed in accordance with the Regulations and Standards listed
in the front of this Manual.
Failure to comply with the instructions in this manual, or the regulations
and standards will result in the Guarantee being void and could have
hazardous consequences.
A. STOVE LOCATION
These appliances are designed with the “Firebox” raised up off the ground
level by the built in “Base unit”.
Thus these appliances require no special Hearth arrangements, as
the floor will not get hot and is protected by the steel construction
of the “Base unit”.
·
The appliance must not be fitted against a rear wall constructed from
a combustible material; a gap of 300mm should be given all round the
stove before combustible materials may be used in the wall construction.
·
If the appliance has to be located in an opening, a minimum clearance
of 50mm should be alowed to non-combustible materials.
·
The stove must be located at least 280mm from any combustible
materials.
·
A combustible shelf may be fitted over the appliance, if in the case
of a 150mm or less deep shelf; there is at least 280mm clearance above
the top of the stove. The shelf depth may increase at the same rate
as the increase in clearance; i.e. a shelf depth of 200mm would require
a clearance of 330mm.
B. GAS CONNECTION
It is important to ensure that all pipe work installed is fitted in accordance
with BS6891 and is capable of supplying sufficient gas flow and pressure to
meet the minimum pressures Technical section of this manual. A minimum
pipe size of 15mm should be used for the gas supply to within 1 metre of
the appliance. 8mm pipe may only be used for the final connection to the
stove, or within 1 meter of the appliance. An 8mm nut and olive is supplied
with the stove for the final pipe joint.
A gas supply tap must be installed in the supply pipe work in a location that
is easily accessible, such that the appliance may be isolated if necessary.
Do not make any connections to the appliance until all supply pipes have
been purged to expel any dust or debris. Failure to do this may result in a
bloque injector or tap and will invalidate the guarantee.
Although a gas soundness test is made on all appliances before they leave
the factory, the appliance should be tested for soundness before operating
the stove. This is to ensure that the burner has not been damaged in transit.
C. PRESSURE TESTING
The gas pressure to the burner must be measured; this should be
measured with all gas appliances after the gas meter operating on full,
including this stove.
D. FLOOR PROTECTION (HEARTH)
These appliances are designed with the “Firebox” raised up off the ground
level by the built in “Base unit”.
Thus these appliances require no special Hearth arrangements, as the floor
will not get hot and is protected by the steel construction of the “Base unit”.
