FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is there an odour when I use a log heater?

All gas appliances give off an odour. This could be

harmful if inhaled for extended periods of time. This

"smell" is normal, and it does not mean that you have

a gas leak. The smell of raw gas (just before you ignite

the appliance) differs to the smell coming from the

heater when it is in use. The odour is added to allow

easy gas detection.

Why must there be ventilation when using a gas log heater?

Whenever fuel (LP Gas in this case) is burned, ventila-

tion Is needed. Any fire needs oxygen to burn.

Think of a fireplace, you require a chimney or flue for the

smoke to exit the house. Even though a gas heater does

not generate smoke, it still generates carbon monox-

ide and carbon dioxide, which can be dangerous if not

diluted by fresh air. Always ensure adequate ventilation

by leaving a door or window open in the same room.

How long will the gas in my cylinder last?

This depends on how you use your log heater. It is easy

to calculate your gas consumption. Take the capacity of

the gas cylinder in grams (i.e. 900g for a 9kg cylinder)

and divide it by the gas consumption of the log heater,

on your desired setting (refer to the specifications

section in this manual – page 12). The answer to the

calculation is the approximate number of hours that your

heater will burn for.

What do I do if I have an over-filled cylinder?

The best method to determine if your cylinder is over-

filled is to weigh it. Subtract the 'tare' mass from the

cylinder weight – this gives you the weight of your gas.

If this gas weight exceeds your cylinder design weight

(9kg) then return the cylinder to your gas supplier.
