Flueless Gas Fires CO PPM

[John506]

What is the maximum PPM allowed for Carbon Monoxide coming directly from a flueless gas fire?

Is it 250ppm?

I will not have one of these in my house - ever.

You need to post this in the combustion chamber

I don't have access.

This question is regarding my ACS.

Was looking for the answer in Manufacturer's Instructions for ages but could'nt find anything

If you answer 250ppm you will fail - what do you think the catylitic Converter is for??

Might be an interesting read if you're doing your ACS.

any MI i have seen quote CO/CO2 ratio rather than CO ppm, however once you have had some combustion training you should be able to calculate the different values from each of the reading available as they are a direct result of calulated formulae and measured samples

It doesn't specifically ask for an explanation on the CO PPM, so I may just put, as the CO/CO2 ratio is under 0.001 (I think it came in at something like 0.0009) and flame picture is good, all is ok.

It sucks because I done 2 days training last week specifically for the ACS, but there wasn't time for the Gas Analyser training so we didn't do it. I then got thrown in and was told to carry out burner pressures and to analyse the flue gases.

I know they are not that hard to use, and I did manage to use it, but was a bit tricky especially with choosing the right probe and finding my way around the analyser.

Gonna scrutinize the MI's again in the morning....

Stressful times haha!

Send your details and details of your acs centre to admin and they may let you in the combustion chamber.

I have sent you mi's for a flueless fire

see page 13 & 14 section 13.4

Hope it helps

Hi Steve,

Just wondering where you sent the MIs?

Thanks!

Hey chaps, just an update, passed my ACS today, and done one module which was boilers, it's all my work pays for. (pointless taking any of it anyway because we don't do gas in our place)

Regarding the flueless gas fire, I just stated the CO/CO2 ratio was ok, but the burner pressure was only showing 3mb so that was a fault, and they passed me on it so happy days!

Thanks for everyone for the advice and Steve for sending the MIs
