8 CHECK FOR SPILLAGE
A SPILLAGE CHECK MUST BE MADE
BEFORE THE INSTALLED APPLIANCE IS
LEFT WITH THE CUSTOMER. DO THIS
TEST WITH ALL THE COALS FITTED AND
THE FENDER AND ASHPAN IN PLACE.
CARRY OUT THE TEST AS FOLLOWS:
8.1 Close all doors and windows in the room
containing the appliance.
8.2 Light the appliance and set to the HIGH
setting.
8.3 Leave the appliance ON for 5 minutes
then light a smoke match. The match
should be inserted 10mm below the top of
the opening and be pointed upwards at
45° to the horizontal.
Move the smoke match across the
opening. The installation is satisfactory if
all the smoke is drawn into the chimney.
8.4 If all the smoke is not drawn into the
chimney, leave the fire alight for a further
10 minutes at the HIGH setting and then
repeat the test. If all the smoke is still not
drawn into the chimney, inspect the
sealing to the fireplace surround. If the
sealing is satisfactory DISCONNECT THE
APPLIANCE AND SEEK EXPERT
ADVICE.
8.5 Open all internal connecting doors,
hatches, etc in the same room as the
appliance. Keep all the doors and
windows that open to the outside of the
building closed. Re-check for spillage as
described above. If an extractor fan is
fitted in the same room as the appliance or
a connecting room, check that spillage
does not occur with the fan operating, all
doors, and other openings between the
fan and the appliance open.
