Gas Fire Servicing

May 31, 2006 3 Replies

Are there any sites which oultine a generic sequence for (safe) servicing of gas fires? I have a Kinder Nevada with a defective ignitor (push button piezo type) which I intend to replace. I have a manual for the fire, but am looking for advice re: cleaning of internals, flue checking procedure etc.



TIA

I suggest you buy a book on gas fitting or get someone in who knows what they are doing.

Thanks Ed

Yes I already have a couple of books on heating and gas by Ed Treloar (titles have slipped my mind just now). Will start by revisiting those. With jobs involving gas/lekky I don't think you can have too many points of reference though.

Why don't you read up on the procedures in BS 5440-1 Section 5.3 and 5.4

The pellets and matches are available at plumbers' merchants and online.
