BG AR missing screw from fire

[princegoose]

Hi, going out to a job tomorrow. Old lady says BG have At Risked her Valor Fire as theres a screw missing. Her reply was, well its only BG who touch the fire so its your responsability.

Sounds about right to me.

Big question is, can anyone give any suggestions as to what screw missing could AR a fire, ive been trundeling throuch the MIs online but nothings shouting at me. Could be one i show the GS inspector when he comes out in a weeks time.

Hi, thanks for the reply, it doesnt have a glass front.

its a valor adorn

know that fire well,could be burner locating screw,wire fixing kit screw or gas lever screw which i doubt its the later as fire would not work,dont forget to check aeration setting is correct this can get over looked,also this has a cast heavy facia screw missing from this could be perceived as ar but ott, this would be 2ba threaded 20 mm long

could be a early one that used coals only,when BAXI took over the aeration setting was made adjustable for coals/pebbles

ah yeah, all she gave me was valor BR622, so its an old one, unless other models has BR622 code as well, am i going along the right lines?

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

no worries pg and thanks hihowudoin for the pdf the 940 is a shed prone to microswitch problems causing the lot to shut down,so be careful with the yellow wires

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

have you got the gc can look on the arena for you

 

[hihowudoin]

ahhhh found the br622 bit different gc 32 032 09

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

does it have the aeration setting? or do i need to look at the arena?

 

[hihowudoin]

no it didnt any adjustment show on arena , just one option of coals

 

[princegoose]

[hihowudoin]

the pdf is for the later model adorn(940) not the br622 (circa2000) theres no aeration adjustment on the early one.

no no need to check it or the yellow wire issue,just go trough it with all the usual tests and look for missing screws
