4.17
The appliance is fitted with an A.S.D (Atmosphere sensing device). If the
appliance closes down after a period of operation for no apparent reason, the
consumer should be informed to stop using the appliance until the installation and
appliance have been thoroughly checked. The A.S.D will shut the appliance down if
an unacceptable amount of harmful products of combustion accumulate. Under no
circumstances should the A.S.D be altered or bypassed in any way. Only a genuine
manufacturer’s replacement part should be fitted. The individual A.S.D components
are not replaceable.
4.18
A fireguard complying with BS 8423 should be fitted for the protection of young
children, the elderly, the infirm and pet animals.
4.19
Proprietary terminals must comply with BS 715 or BS 1289. Any terminal or
termination must be positioned in accordance with BS 5440 Part 1 to ensure that the
products of combustion can be safely dispersed into the outside atmosphere. Where
the appliance is connected to an unlined brick chimney it is generally unnecessary for
the chimney pot to be replaced or for a terminal to be fitted unless the flue has a
diameter smaller than 170mm.
4.20
The minimum allowable distance from the outside of the appliance fascia to a
corner wall having combustible material or any other combustible surface which
projects beyond the front of the appliance is shown in figure 5.
A 10mm access clearance from a non-combustible surface is necessary at the left
side.
