Specifications

1. COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION
THE APPLIANCE MUST NEVER BE OPERATED
WITH THE DOOR REMOVED OR GLASS
BROKEN.
When the coals and matrices have been arranged as
shown in section 3, the door(s) must be closed and a
good seal achieved, using the supplied washer and nut.
Finally, the cast knob should be screwed onto the same
bolt as the nut. This can then be tightened up with
orientation either horizontal or vertical, noting that it is
not necessary to “wrench” this knob on tight. Ensure
that the rope seal is forming a good seal around the
door in all places.
2. APPLIANCE TESTING
The gas pressure to the appliance must be measured;
this should be measured with all gas appliances after the
gas meter operating on full, including the Exminster
stove. It should be 20mb or 37mb +/–5%.
The flow rate should be checked using the method
described in the CORGI Essential Gas Safety book. See
Technical Specification section3. +/–5%. The above
values are on “HIGH” and should be measured whilst
all appliances are on full.
Carry out the test by first closing all doors and windows
in the room containing the stove. Ensure the fire is
burning at full rate for a minmum of 5 minutes to warm
the flue.
3. COMMISSIONING THE STOVE
A spillage test MUST be made before the installed fire
is left with the customer. Carry out the test by first
closing all doors and windows in the room containing
the stove.
Ensure that the fire is burning at full rate for a
mimimum of 5 minutes to warm the flue. Using a smoke
match, run along the edge of a draught diverter as
shown below in Fig. 22. The smoke should be drawn
into the draught diverter. The test should be made over
the full width of the draught diverter, and the test may
be done from either left to right.
4. POST INSTALLATION CHECKS
Before leaving the appliance connected to the gas
supply, the installer is required to visually examine the
appliance and flueway to ensure that:
a) The seal between the combustion chamber and the
room is intact and in good condition.
b) The flue has been correctly sealed.
c) There is no debris contained within the flue assembly.
d) All pipe work must be purged.
