3. Installation Parameters

The fire unit must be installed and used in accordance with these instructions.

This appliance is for decorative purposes.

For your safety it is law that all gas appliances must be installed by a competent
person, in accordance with the current Gas Safety regulations applicable in the
country of use.

The installation must be carried out in accordance with the relevant local and national
specifications and comply with building regulations.

The following must comply with the requirements and satisfy Building Regulations ­Approved Document J.

• Builders opening and Fire Chamber must be constructed of non-combustible

material

• Hearth and clearance dimensions

• The minimum ue opening is 178mm (7”) diameter 250 sq. cm. (38.5 sq. inches)

and a minimum height of 3m (10ft), provided the flue which serves this appliance.

An in-line fan that complies with BS 5440 Part 1 can be used to improve flue draught.

NOTE - The flue must not be shared with any other appliance.

Prior to installation, ensure the compliance of local distribution conditions (E.g. The
type of gas, pressure and the adjustment of the appliance) are compatible.

The builder’s opening or fireplace opening must be constructed of a non-combustible
material.

Before the fire is installed, the chimney should be swept and a flue test in accordance
with National Regulations should be carried out.

The flue must be fitted in accordance with National Regulations, damper plates or flue
restrictors must be removed or fixed permanently in the fully open position.

The gas connection must be in accordance with National Regulations.

The pilot light and flame sensing system fitted to this fire is also an atmosphere
sensing device, this is not adjustable and must not be put out of action. If the pilot
light is damaged or faulty it should be replaced only with the original identical unit
supplied by Chesney’s Limited.

Appropriate ventilation to the room where the appliance is to be fitted must be in
accordance with Local and National Regulations and must be checked on a regular
basis to ensure there is no obstruction.

This appliance must not be fitted in any room where steam is present (e.g. Bathroom).

9

The appliance is not fitted with an integral guard. It is recommended that a guard be
used for the protection of young children, the elderly or infirm and also for normal use
conforming to BS8423 2002, such that access to the flame is minimised.

It is advised not to stand too close to the appliance for prolonged periods of time
loose clothing is particularly at risk of burning due to the presence of an unguarded
flame.

It is also advised against placing combustible materials directly in front of the
appliance. Floor coverings, such as carpets, are considered to be acceptable.

Due to the newness of materials, the fire may give off a slight smell for a period of
time after commissioning. This is quite normal and any odours should dissipate within
a few hours of operation.

10

4. Installation

Check Flue Soundness

A smoke pellet can be used to test the flue for effectiveness of the draw, also checking
other parts of the dwelling (including loft areas) for leakage, down-draught etc.
If the flue is unsatisfactory seek advice from a flue specialist.

NOTE – The smoke pellet gives a fair idea on the draw, but is no guarantee that the
products of combustion from the fire unit will clear, this is also to be tested after the
installation by carrying a spillage test.

The URN can be installed as a free standing unit.

IMPORTANT- Please check you have the correct model for your chosen installation as
they differ in design.

Ensure that the gas supply is capable of delivering the required amount of gas, and is
in accordance with the rules in force.

When laying the gas pipe work check the fire unit’s gas inlet location to ensure a
smooth run.

NOTE - All gas work must be carried out by a qualified gas installer to all relevant
regulations.

An isolation valve or valves must be fitted adjacent to the appliance in accordance
with national regulations this is to allow the complete removal of the burner control
assembly, for maintenance or repair.

The Burner is fitted with a metal data plate supplied with the fire unit and is to remain
with the fire unit for annual services.

the appliance’ in User Instructions for information).

Spillage checks

A spillage check must be done before the installed appliance is handed to the
customer.

The appliance must be fully fitted, all doors and windows closed in the room in which
the appliance is fitted. The appliance is to be tested after 5 minutes of the burn on
maximum position.

Light a smoke match and position flush with the fireplace opening testing around the
opening a minimum of 50mm from the sides and a maximum of 50mm from the top.

If the chimney is functioning correctly all smoke should be drawn into the chimney
and out of the room.

If this does not happen, check after a further 5 minutes of burn time on high rate. If
the smoke still does not expel all fumes then the unit is to be disconnected and expert
advice taken.

Do not throw rubbish upon the surface area or otherwise disturb the fuel bed. Debris
from any source, or soot formed, should be removed from time to time.

The pilot light and flame sensing device fitted to this fire is also an atmosphere
sensing device, which shuts off both the main burner and pilot if evacuation of the
combustion products is interrupted. If the fire is extinguished or goes out in use, allow
3 minutes before attempting to relight.
If the fire shuts itself off repeatedly, do not use the fire, and have the flue and fire
checked by a suitably qualified person.

The appropriate size and type of ventilation into to the room where the appliance is to
be fitted should also take into account any other gas appliances in the room and must
comply with Local and National Regulations.
The ventilation should be checked on a regular basis to ensure there is no obstruction.

Additional control functions

In addition, the remote control can also be used to set a number of additional
functions:

• Time and date

• Temperature display in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit

• Snooze mode

• Thermostat function

Caution - Although highly improbable, we cannot rule out that your appliance’s
ignition process can be started unintentionally through other remote controls. For
example the remote control of your neighbours’ gas heater, but also car keys and
garage door openers. The result will be that your appliance will burn when you do not
want it to.

Unintended ignition of your appliance could be solved or prevented by turning
the ON/OFF switch or closing the gas tap near your appliance. This is the safest
precaution if the appliance is not is use for long periods to turn the ON/OFF switch to
the OFF position and to close the gas tap near your appliance.

Thermostatic mode

The handset has within it a thermostat sensor and this can be set so the fire will heat
the room to match he temperature set in the handset.

There are 2 temperature types that can be set:

When the set temperature is reached while the fire is in operation, the fire reduces the
burner power level each minute until the burner is off. The pilot will remain on for a
further 30 minutes and if the set temperature is still too high, the pilot will then also
extinguish.

NOTE: If at any time the power button is operated during Thermostat mode, the
control will cancel any thermostat operation and return the control to manual mode.
