Before each use of the appliance, the hose assembly connecting the appliance to the gas supply must
be inspected. If there is evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or if the hose is damaged, then the
hose assembly must be replaced before the appliance is operated.
The gas hose should be properly located away from pathways or areas where the hose may be subject
to accidental damage.
D4 Gas Isolating Valve
It is highly recommended for a gas isolating valve to be installed in the gas line as close to the appliance
as possible. Fix it in a convenient position to allow it to be closed o quickly and easily during normal
operation. Take into consideration access to this valve once any wall cladding is installed. This will also
allow for easier servicing in the future.
END OF SECTION D
By the end of this section, you should have:
□ An unlined cavity with 230/240V AC supply where the appliance can be plugged into an
electrical isolating switch that is accessible once the appliance is installed and is protected
from water and the weather.
□ A suitably sized gas supply to the appliance with a pressure test point, ready to be
connected once the appliance is installed.
