2.1
Check the stove
•
Check the stove immediately after reception.

Ensure that the appliance conforms to the type of gas
distributed and the method of venting away the
combustion products as per the indications on the
appliance's information plate and the gas setting label
affixed to the appliance when it leaves the factory.

2.2
Ventilation
The premises should be in accordance with the building
regulations.
Ventilation : The ventilation rate should be of at least
3
22 m
/h.
This gas stove is rated at less than 7kW; it therefore
does not normally require additional ventilation in the
room to conform to BS 5871 pt.2. However it is
important that adequate air for complete combustion is
available, and also if other gas appliances or extractor
fans are fitted in the same room or adja-cent area, then
it will be necessary to refer to BS 6714 and BS 5440
: p t . 2 . t o a s c e r t a i n t h e a d d i t i o n a l v e n t i l a t i o n
requirements.
2.3
Clearance requirements
The stove must stand on a fireproof hearth, which must
be of a non-combustible material with a minimum
thickness of 12mm and extend 150mm in front of the
stove.
The hearth must not be capable of inadvertent covering
by a rug or carpet. This may be achieved by either the
hearth being 50mm above the level of the floor, or a
fender or kerb around the hearth to a height of 50mm.
The appliance must not be fitted against a rear wall
constructed from a combustible material; a gap of
300 mm should be given all round the stove before
combustible materials may be used in the wall
construction.
If the appliance has to be located in an opening, the
minimum clearance from non-combustible materials is
shown in the figure.
The stove must be located at least 280mm from any
combustible materials.
A combustible shelf may be fitted over the appliance, if
in the case of a 150mm or less deep shelf, there is at
least 280mm clearance above the top of the stove. The
shelf depth may increase at the same rate as the
increase in clearance.

must be a clearance of at least 50 mm at the left hand of
the appliance, 50 mm at the back of the appliance and
50 mm above from any non-combustible materials. This
distance must be extended to a mininum clearance of
80 mm from any combustible materials.
There should ideally be a minimum gap of 150 mm at
the right hand side of the stove (this will ensure the best
p o s s i b l e a c c e s s t o t h e c o n t r o l k n o b ) . T h i s
measurement may be reduced to a minimum gap of 100
mm if needed however extra care should be taken when
