1.0 Introduction
5
1.1 Description
1. The Baxi Combi Instant 80e or 105e is a fully automatic gas fired wall mounted combination boiler. It is room sealed and fan assisted, and will serve central heating and mains fed domestic hot water.
2.The unit incorporates a small storage cylinder built into the boiler providing hot water the moment the tap is turned on.
3. The boiler is set to give a maximum output of 24.0 kW (Instant 80e) or 31.0 kW (Instant 105e).
4. It is designed for use on Natural Gas (G20) and can be converted to use Propane (Instant 80e and 105e) or Butane (Instant 80e only).
5. The boiler is suitable for use only on fully pumped sealed heating systems. Priority is given to domestic hot water.
6. The boiler data badge gives details of the model, serial number and Gas Council number and is situated on the control box. It is visible when the case front panel is removed (Fig. 1).
7. The boiler is intended to be installed in residential / commercial / light industrial E.M.C. environments on a governed meter supply only.
8. The boiler must be installed with one of the purpose designed flues such as the standard horizontal flue kit, part no. 247719.
9. All systems must be thoroughly flushed and
treated with inhibitor (see section 6.2).
1.2 Instant Domestic Hot Water
(Expansion Vessel & Pre-Heat Store)
1. The boiler expansion vessel incorporates a small volume of stored primary hot water.
2. When the boiler has been off and there is then a demand for domestic hot water the stored primary hot water ensures that domestic hot water is supplied instantly at temperature.
3. The stored hot water is part of the primary circuit. This is not supplied as domestic hot water, which is fresh mains water heated by a heat exchanger within the boiler.
4. The stored primary hot water temperature is maintained whilst the boiler is in operation. During a period when there is no demand for heating or hot water the temperature of the stored primary hot water will eventually fall. The boiler will operate occasionally in order to maintain the temperature. This is indicated by the domestic hot water mode neon flashing.
1.3 Optional Extras
Various flue extensions, bends, vertical flue kits,control accessories etc. are availble as optional extras. These are detailed in a separate publication.

3.0 Appliance Operation
7
NOTE: All delay timers mentioned in 3.1 and 3.2
are overridden by domestic hot water demand.
3.1 Central Heating Mode (Fig. 2)
1. With a demand for heating, the pump circulates water through the primary circuit. At a pre­determined flow rate the central heating flow switch operates, initiating the ignition sequence.
2. The main burner ignites at low rate, then the gas valve controls the gas rate to maintain the heating temperature measured by the temperature sensor.
3. When the flow temperature exceeds the setting temperature, a 3 minute delay occurs before the burner relights automatically (anti-cycling). The pump continues to run during this period.
4. When the demand is satisfied the burner is extinguished and the pump continues to run for a period of 30 minutes (Pump Overrun).
5. If there is no other demand the pre-heat function will operate if switched on (see Section
3.2).
3.2 Domestic Hot Water - Preheat Mode
(Fig. 3)
1. With the pre-heat function switched on (pre­heat control fully clockwise), priority is given to the replenishment of the pre-heat store. The DHW mode neon ( ) will flash during this function.
2. The diverter valve remains in the DHW priority position. This allows the pump to circulate hot water to the store and back to the primary heat exchanger via the bypass pipe.
3. The automatic ignition sequence commences after approximately 25 seconds and the burner will light.
4. When the store reaches the desired temperature the burner is extinguished. The pump continues to run for a period of 30 seconds.
5. Following a demand for domestic hot water or the end of a central heating ON period, the pre­heat function restarts.

3.3 Domestic Hot Water Mode (Fig. 3A)
1. Priority is given to the domestic hot water supply. A demand at a tap or shower will override any central heating requirement.
2. The flow of water will operate the DHW flow switch which requests the 3 way valve to change position. This will allow the pump to circulate the primary water through the DHW plate heat exchanger and take the stored water to give instant hot water.
3. The burner will light automatically and the temperature of the domestic hot water is controlled by the temperature sensor.
4. When the domestic hot water demand ceases the burner will extinguish and the diverter valve will remain in the domestic hot water mode, unless there is a demand for central heating.
5. If there is no other demand the pre-heat function will operate if switched on (see Section
3.2)
IMPORTANT: When the selector switch is in the ‘0’ (Off) position the electrical supply to the boiler is isolated. The boiler will not operate and the integral timer (if fitted) will require resetting once the selector switch is set to either Position (i) or Position (ii).
3.4 Frost Protection Mode
1. The frost protection mode is integral to the appliance and functions only with the selector switch (see Section 2.1) in the domestic hot water and central heating position. If the system temperature falls below 5° C then the boiler will fire on its minimum setting until a flow temperature of 30° C is reached. Further protection can be incorporated by using a system frost thermostat.
3.5 Pump Protection
1. With the selector switch (see Section 2.1) in either the central heating or central heating and hot water position the pump will automatically operate for 1 minute in every 24 hours to prevent sticking.

6.1 Information
1. The Baxi Combi Instant 80e and 105e Combination Boilers are Water Byelaws Scheme - Approved Products’. To comply with the Water Byelaws your attention is drawn to the following installation requirements and notes (IRN).
a) IRN 001 - See text of entry for installation
requirements and notes. b) IRN 116 - Byelaw 90 and 91. c) IRN 302 - Byelaw 14.
2. Reference to the WRc publications, Water fittings and materials directory and Water supply byelaws guide give full details of byelaws and the IRNs.
6.2 Central Heating Circuit
1. The appliance is suitable for fully pumped SEALED SYSTEMS ONLY.
Treatment of Water Circulating Systems
All recirculatory water systems will be subject to
corrosion unless an appropriate water treatment is applied. This means that the efficiency of the system will deteriorate as corrosion sludge accumulates within the system, risking damage to pump and valves, boiler noise and circulation problems.
For optimum performance after installation this
boiler and its associated central heating system must be flushed. A means of achieving this is by following the guidelines given in BS 7593 Treatment of water in domestic hot water central heating systems”.
This must involve the use of a proprietary cleanser,
such as BetzDearborn Sentinel X300 or X400, or Fernox Superfloc. Full instructions are supplied with the products, but for immediate information please contact BetzDearborn (+44 (0)151 420 9563) or Fernox (+44 (0)1799 550 811) directly.
For long term protection against corrosion and
scale, after flushing it is recommended that an inhibitor such as BetzDearborn Sentinel X100, or Fernox MB-1 or Copa used. The correct dosing is obtained by following the guidelines given in BS 7593.
Failure to flush and add inhibitor to the system may invalidate the appliance warranty.
It is important to check the inhibitor concentration
after installation, system modification and at every service in accordance with the inhibitor manufacturers instructions. (Test kits are available from inhibitor stockists.)
For information or advice regarding any of the
above contact the Baxi Helpline.
6.3 Bypass
1. The boiler is fitted with an automatic integral bypass.
6.4 System Control
1. The boiler is designed for use in a heating system that incorporates external controls, i.e. a minimum of a timer device.
2. Suitable timer kits are available as optional extras.
3. For optimum operating conditions and maximum economy the fitting of a programmable room thermostat, such as the Baxi Combi Controller, is recommended.
6.0 System Details

6.5 System Filling and Pressurising
1. A filling point connection on the central heating return pipework must be provided to facilitate initial filling and pressurising and also any subsequent water loss replacement/refilling.
2. There are connection points on the mains cold water inlet and central heating return isolating taps (Fig. 4a) to which the optional filling loop kit (Part No. 248221) can be assembled.
3. The filling method adopted must be in accordance with al relevant water supply regulations and use approved equipment.
4. Your attention is drawn to: for GB: Guidance G24.2 and recommendation R24.2 of Water Regulations Guide. for IE: the current edition of I.S. 813 Domestic Gas Installations”.
5. The sealed primary circuits may be filled or replenished by means of a temporary connection between the circuit and a supply pipe, provided a Listed double check valve or some other no less effective backflow prevention device is permanently connected at the inlet to the circuit and the temporary connection is removed after use.
6.6 Expansion Vessel
(Central Heating only)
1. The appliance expansion vessel is pre-charged to 0.5 bar. Therefore, the minimum cold fill pressure is 0.5 bar. The vessel is suitable for correct operation for system capacities up to 80 litres. For greater system capacities an additional expansion vessel must be fitted - refer to BS 7074 Pt 1.
6.7 Pressure Relief Valve (Fig. 5)
1. The pressure relief valve is set at 3 bar, therefore all pipework, fittings, etc. should be suitable for pressures in excess of 3 bar.
2. The pressure relief discharge pipe should be not less than 15mm dia, run continuously downward, and discharge outside the building, preferably over a drain. It should be routed in such a manner that no hazard occurs to occupants or causes damage to wiring or electrical components. The end of the pipe should terminate facing down and towards the wall.
3. The discharge must not be above a window, entrance or other public access. Consideration must be given to the possibility that boiling water/steam could discharge from the pipe.

6.8 Domestic Hot Water Circuit (Fig. 6)
1. All DHW circuits, connections, fittings, etc. should be fully in accordance with relevant standards, the water supply regulations.
2. Your attention is drawn to: for GB: Guidance G17 to G24 and recommendation R17 to R24 of the Water Regulations Gude. for IE: the current edition of I.S. 813 Domestic Gas Installations”.
3. A single check valve must be fitted as shown in Fig. 6 to prevent backflow to the supply pipe and to ensure the efficient operation of the expansion vessel which is required to accommodate the thermal expansion of the water.
4. When the domestic water system includes any device which prevents water expanding back towards the supply (check valve, loose jumpered stopcock, water meter, water treatment device), then an expansion vessel must be fitted (e.g. Zilmet 160ml, R
1
/215bar).
5. If the hot water expansion is not provided for, then high pressures can develop which may result in damage to fittings and devices on the system.
5. The boilers maximum working mains pressure is 8 bar, therefore all pipework, connections, fittings, etc. should be suitable for pressures in excess of 8 bar. A pressure reducing valve must be fitted for pressures in excess of 8 bar. The manufacturer of any outlet fittings, such as a shower valve, may require a lower maximum pressure. The pressure reduction must take account of all fittings connected to the DHW system.
6.9 Showers
1. If a shower control is supplied from the appliance it should be of the thermostatic or pressure balanced type. Thermostatic type shower valves provide the best comfort and guard against water at too high a temperature. Existing controls may not be suitable - refer to the shower valve manufacturer.
6.10 Hard Water Areas
1. If the area of the installation is recognised as a HARD WATER AREA then a suitable device should be fitted to treat the mains water supply to the boiler.

8.6 Fitting The Flue
HORIZONTAL FLUE
1. The standard flue is suitable for lengths 100mm minimum to 1m maximum (measured from the edge of the flue elbow outlet).
Rear Flue: maximum wall thickness - 900mm
Side Flue: maximum wall thickness - 870mm
2. Locate the flue elbow on the adaptor at the top of the boiler. Set the elbow to the required orientation (rear, right or left).
3. Measure the distance from the outside wall face to the elbow (Fig. 20). This dimension will be known as ‘X’.
4. Taking the air duct, mark dimension ‘X’ as shown (Fig. 21). Measure the length of waste material, and transfer the dimension to the flue duct (Fig. 21).
IMPORTANT: Check all measurements before cutting.
5. Remove the waste from both ducts. Ensure that the cut ends are square and free from burrs.
6. Remove the flue elbow from the adaptor.
7. Insert the flue duct into the air duct and pass them through the hole in the wall.

8.6 Fitting the Flue (Cont)
IMPORTANT: If the equivalent flue length is
greater than 1.5m the restrictor MUST be removed from the adaptor (Fig. 22).
8. Take one of the rubber seals and position it on the boiler flue adaptor. Engage the flue elbow on the adaptor and pull the sleeve up so that it equally covers the joint (Fig. 22).
9. Remove the screws from one of the clips provided. Prise the clip apart and fit it over the seal (Fig. 23). Set the elbow to the required angle.
10. Refit the screws to the clip and tighten them to secure the elbow. Take the second rubber seal and position it on the flue elbow.
11. Locate the flue duct clamp on the flue outlet elbow. Draw the flue duct out of the air duct, engage it in the clamp and tighten the screws (Fig. 24).
12. Draw the air duct out of the wall and align it with the elbow. Position the seal so that it equally covers the joint (Fig. 25).
13. Remove the screws from the second clip provided. Prise the clip apart and fit it over the seal. Refit the screws to the clip and tighten them (Fig. 25).
14. Where possible position the clips so that the screws are not visible.
15. Make good between the wall and air duct outside the building.
16. Fit the circular flue trim outside if required, and if necessary fit a terminal guard (see Section 7.10 & 7.11).
8.7 Extensions & Additional Elbows
1. The method of connecting any flue extensions or additional elbows is the same as that for connecting the standard flue and 90° elbow as described above.
2. If, for example, when a flue extension is connected to a 90° elbow the flue duct will project from the air duct at the unconnected end by the same ammount as the flue duct spigot does from the elbow . Further elbows or extensions can then be added to this.
3. Similarly, a concentric flue can be connected to the boiler adaptor in the same manner as it does to the elbow to provide a vertical flue.
4. The additional 90° elbow available is identical to the elbow supplied with the standard flue. 45° elbows are of the same principle.
5. Extensions can be cut according to the requirements of the installation.
