COMMISSIONING

1.1 To commission:

—Replace the baffle and log guard.

—Check the door alignment and catch operation

and adjust if required (see Maintenance & Servicing,

Section 8).

—Check the soundness of door seals, castings and joints.

—Check seal of the stove to the wall.

—Check the operation of the air controls.

1.2 Now carry out a final smoke draw test:

—Warm the flue with a blowlamp, or similar, for about 10

minutes.

—Place a smoke pellet on the centre of the grate, with the

air controls open.

—Close the door. Smoke should now be drawn up the flue

and be seen to exit from the flue terminal.

—Complete test with all doors and windows closed in the

room where the appliance is fitted.

—If there are any extractor fans in adjacent rooms the test

must be repeated with the fans running on maximum

and with interconnecting doors open.

—Check the effect of ceiling fans during the test.

If the test fails, re-check the suitability of the flue system

and ventilation. An inadequate air supply to the room is

potentially dangerous.

—Light the appliance and slowly increase the temperature.

—Ensure no combustion products enter the room.

—Open the main fire door when the appliance reaches

operating temperature and carry out a spillage test with a

smoke match or pellet around the door opening.

1.3 If excessive spillage occurs allow the appliance to cool and

re-check the flue system and ventilation.

1.4 Finally:

Explain to the user the safe operation of the

appliance, use of the controls and the importance of

only using suitable fuels.
