Appliance
The appliance must be installed on a solid level floor or
base of incombustible material which is capable of
supporting the total weight.
Location
The location chosen for the appliance must permit
installation and the provision of a satisfactory flue and an
adequate air supply. The location must also provide
adequate space for servicing and air circulation around
the appliance. See Section - Installation of Appliance -
General.
Meters
A gas meter is connected to the service pipe by the local
Gas Region or a local Gas Region Contractor. An existing
meter should be checked, preferably by the Gas Region,
to ensure that the meter is adequate to deal with the total
rate of gas supply required.
Installation Gas Pipes
Installation pipes should be fitted in accordance with local
gas fitting regulations. Pipework from the meter to the
appliance must be of adequate size. Do not use pipes of
a smaller size than the appliance gas connection. The
complete installation must be tested for soundness and
purged.
Detailed recommendations for fluing are given in Fluing
and Ventilation Standards.
The following notes are intended to give general
guidance:
The cross-section area of the flue serving the cooker must
not be less than the area of the flue outlet of the cooker,
and at least 3m high from the floor level.
If flue pipe is to be used it must not be less than 130mm
internal diameter.
Flue pipes and fittings should be constructed from one of
the following materials.
