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 flue 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.

The room where the appliance is to be fitted must have a permanent

air vent with a minimum effective area of 100cm sq. to the outside air

in accordance with National Regulations and must be checked on a

regular basis to ensure there is no obstruction.

6

This appliance must not be fitted in any room where steam is present

(e.g. Bathroom).

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.

7

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.

Below is a guide to the flue diameter and minimum flue heights for different

size openings.

NOTE - This table is a rough guide, due to some complex flue systems in

some dwellings the suggested table may still be inadequate, contact a flue

specialist for more advice.

Check Ventilation

Ensure the room the appliance is to be fitted has suitable ventilation the size

and type of ventilation should take into account any other gas appliance in

the room.

The room where the appliance is to be fitted must have a permanent

air vent to the outside air in accordance with Local and National

Regulations. The air vent must be checked on a regular basis to

ensure there is no obstruction.

Fitting the fire unit

The burner unit has been supplied in an assembled state with exception of

clay granules and coals/logs. All Chesney’s fire units have been tested to

ensure safety.

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.

Chesney’s fire baskets (Sold separately) are supplied with a grate; this is not

needed for gas appliances and must be removed.

9

On certain types of fire baskets (mainly curved baskets) both grate structure bars

must be removed to enable the fitting of the burner unit.

Secure the fire unit to the fire basket.

When fitting the fire ensure that the unit is fitted under the flue opening so that no

part of the fire bed protrudes beyond the fireplace opening.

Before connecting the fire unit purge the pipes from air and debris.

Light the fire on maximum and run for approximately 20mins and check that the hot

burner pressure is in accordance with the values stated on page 4 within the

appliance specifications.

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.

Features and Options

• No external electrical power required.

• Used with standard thermocouple and standard ODS pilot

• Flame height adjustment with remote control or switch

• Flame height knob may be adjusted manually, if required

• AGA, CGA and CE approvals

• Compact design with large capacity

• Thermoelectric flame failure device

• Safety interlock

• Pressure regulator or throttle

• Minimum rate selling with fixed or adjustable orifices

• Pilot gas adjustment screw

• Screen in the gas inlet area

• Side outlet for second burner (not motor controlled)

GV34, 36 and 60 models require no external electrical power to operate. The battery-powered

motor allows main gas adjustment via an electric switch or remote.

In the event of a battery failure, the flame height may be adjusted by hand. The GV34 is

configured for on-off low to high main burner function. The thermoelectric flame failure device

functions with all standard thermocouple and ODS pilot burners (no powerpile necessary).

The GV34, 36, 60 Series multifunctional controls have been designed to be as interchangeable as

possible. This allows the different functions to be realized in one heating appliance.

16

Operation

Lighting Procedure

1) Turn Knob A (figure 1) slightly left towards the ignition position until reaching stop,

press down and hold for five seconds (only pilot gas flows).

2) Continue pressing down knob A while turning further left to activate piezo, continue to hold

down for 10 seconds after pilot has been lit. If pilot does not light, steps 1 and 2 can be

repeated immediately.

3) Upon lighting, release knob and turn further left to ON position. Pilot gas flows and main

gas flows in accordance to the setting (knob B).

Adjusting the flame height

To turn the fire on and/or to increase the flame height, press the ON button of the remote

handset. Continue pressing until the desired flame height is obtained. Press and hold the OFF

button to reverse the procedure. The receiver is equipped with a built-in delay, recognizable by

the flickering light, to facilitate fine adjustment of the flame.

The motorized valve is equipped with a slip clutch, allowing manual adjustment of main gas by

turning knob B.

Shut-off Procedure

1) Turn knob A right until reaching stop. In this position only pilot gas flows.

2) To shut off the valve completely, press down slightly and continue turning right from pilot

position to the OFF • position. The safety interlock prevents re-ignition of the pilot flame

until the thermocouple has cooled down sufficiently (elapsed time will vary based on the

thermocouple type).

3) Switching off the remote is not necessary.
