When using the cooker hood at the
same time as another heating ap

pliance which depends on the air in the
room (e.g. gas, oil or coal fired heaters,
continuous flow or other water heaters,
gas cooker, gas hob or gas oven), spe

cial care must be taken as the action of
the cooker hood extracts air from the
room, which these type of heaters need
for combustion.
They could also draw exhaust air back
in from chimneys or ducting in contra

vention of fire safety regulations.
In order to ensure safe operation, and
to prevent gases given off by the heat-
ing appliances from being drawn back
into the room when the extractor and
the heater are in operation simulta-
neously, an underpressure in the room
of 0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum
permissible.
Ventilation can be maintained by air in-

by other technical measures, such as
ensuring that the extractor can only be
switched on when the heating appli

N.B: The overall ventilation condition of
the dwelling must be taken into ac

count. If in any doubt, the advice of a
competent builder or, for gas, a "Corgi"
installer must be sought.
