11. SERVICING & PARTS REPLACEMENT
Always turn off the gas supply and allow to cool completely before
commencing any servicing (The appliance inlet ‘T’ connector incorporates an
isolating valve).
It is recommended that, at least once a year, the appliance is disconnected and
the fireplace opening checked and cleared of any debris.
This product uses fuel effect pieces containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres
(RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to
these materials may cause irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract.
Consequently, it is important to take care when handling these articles to
ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum. To ensure that the release
of fibres from these RCF articles is kept to a minimum, during installation and
servicing we recommend that you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any
dust and soot accumulated in and around the fire before and after working on
the fire. When replacing these articles we recommend that the replaced items
are not broken up, but are sealed within a heavy duty polythene bag, clearly
labelled as RCF waste. RCF waste is classed as a stable, non-reactive
hazardous waste and may be disposed at a landfill licensed to accept such
waste. Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles, but we
recommend you follow the normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or
drinking in the work area and always wash your hands before eating or
drinking.
Check that the appliance is clean and that soot or debris is not blocking the gaps
between the ceramic fuel effect pieces causing an imperfect flame.
Check that soot or debris is not impairing the electrode spark or pilot burner.
Check that soot or debris is not blocking any of the slots in the main burner.
After servicing, make sure that the ceramic fuel effect pieces are replaced
correctly as described in the installation instructions.
Always test for gas soundness and spillage after servicing the appliance.
11.1 Checking the aeration setting of the burner.
