Provision for ventilation
Detailed recommendations are contained in the following

British Standards Codes Of Practice: B.S. 6172/ B.S.

5440, Par. 2 and B.S. 6891 Current Editions.

The hob should not be installed in a bed sitting room with

a volume of less than 20 m³. If it is installed in a room of

volume less than 5 m³ an air vent of effective area of 100

cm² is required. If it is installed in a room of volume be-

tween 5 m³ and 10 m³ an air vent of effective area of 50

cm² is required, while if the volume exceeds 11 m³ no air

vent is required.

However, if the room has a door which opens directly to

the outside no air vent is required even if the volume is

between 5 m³ and 11 m³.

If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same

room, B.S. 5440 Part 2 Current Edition, should be consul-

ted to determine the requisite air vent requirements.

For appliances installed in the Republic of Ireland please

Elbow

Connection to the gas supply should be with either rigid

or semi-rigid pipe, i.e. steel or copper.

The connection should be suitable for connecting to R 1/2

(1/2 BSP male thread).

When the final connection has been made, it is essential

that a thorough leak test is carried out on the hob and in-

stallation.

Make sure that the main connection pipe does not exert

any strain on the hob.

If you use flexible metal pipes make sure that they agree to

ISO 10380 and ISO 10807 standards. Be careful they do

not come in touch with mobile parts or they are not

squeezed. Also be careful when the hob is put together

with an oven.
Important! It is important to install the elbow correctly,

with the shoulder on the end of the thread, fitted to the

hob connecting pipe.
