Safety comes first
As fires consume oxygen and produce carbon monoxide/dioxide, adequate air supply is essential to ensure peak performance of the appliance. It is ideal that some ventilation occur, either in the form of air bricks or gaps around external doors and windows, so that fresh air can be introduced and stale air removed.
Refer to the table on each of our gas fires detailing minimum room size it can be installed in and the ventilation requirement if the room is smaller than the permitted size.
It is illegal /unsafe to install any flue-less gas fire /heater in a bedroom or bathroom.
It is a legal requirement that all gas appliances be installed by a gas fitter registered by SAQCC-Gas, for the type of gas being used ie. LPG or Natural Gas. Please verify that your installer is registered by asking to see his registration card.
