In instances where copper pipework is to
be used for all or part of a gas pipework
installation, including short length final
connections then we advise that installers
consult with the gas supplier or provider and
satisfy themselves what additional precautions
may be necessary.
Improper installation, adjustment,
alteration, service, or maintenance
can cause property damage,
injury, or death. Read the
installation, operation, and
maintenance instructions
thoroughly before installing or
servicing this equipment.
Gas-fired appliances are not designed for
use in hazardous atmospheres containing
flammable vapours or combustible dust,
in atmospheres containing chlorinated or
halogenated hydrocarbons or in applications
with airborne silicone substances.
Any reference made to Laws, Standards,
Directives, Codes of Practice or other
recommendations governing the application
and installation of heating appliances and
which may be referred to in Brochures,
Specifications, Quotations, and Installation,
Operation and Maintenance manuals is done
so for information and guidance purposes only
and should only be considered valid at the
time of the publication.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible
from any matters arising from the revision
to or introduction of new Laws, Standards,
Directives, Codes of Practice or other
recommendations.
The temperature in the controls section of the
unit must never be less than -10°C otherwise
damage could occur to the sealing elements of
the gas valve and to the electrical components.
The electrical isolator should only be used in an
emergency and should not be used for closing
down the main burner, as it switches off the
fan prematurely and may damage the heat
exchanger, invalidating the warranty.
