Building Regulations and the Benchmark Commissioning Checklist
Building Regulations (England & Wales) require notification of the installation of a heating appliance to the relevant Local Authority Building Control Department. From 1 April 2005 this can be achieved via a Competent Persons Self Certification Scheme as an option to notifying the Local Authority directly. Similar arrangements will follow for Scotland and will apply in Northern Ireland from 1 January 2006.
CORGI operate a Self Certification Scheme for gas heating appliances.
These arrangements represent a change from the situation whereby compliance with Building Regulations was accepted as being demonstrated by completion of the Benchmark Logbook (which was then left on site with the customer).
With the introduction of Self Certification Schemes, the Benchmark Logbook is being withdrawn. However, a similar document in the form of a commissioning checklist and service interval record is incorporated at the back of these instructions.
This company is a member of the Benchmark initiative and fully supports the aims of the programme. Its aim is to improve the standards of installation and commissioning of central heating systems in the UK and to encourage the regular servicing of all central heating systems to ensure safety and efficiency.
Building Regulations require that installations should comply with manufacturer's instructions. It is therefore important that the commissioning checklist is completed by the installer. The relevant section of Building Regulations only relates to dwellings. Therefore the checklist only applies if the appliance is being installed in a dwelling or some related structure.
The flowchart opposite gives guidance for installers on the process necessary to ensure compliance with Building Regulations.

Safe Manual Handling
© Baxi Heating UK Ltd 2008
General
The following advice should be adhered to, from when first handling the boiler to the final stages of installation, and also during maintenance.
Most injuries as a result of inappropriate handling and lifting are to the back, but all other parts of the body are vulnerable, particularly shoulders, arms and hands. Health & Safety is the responsibility of EVERYONE.
There is no ‘safe’ limit for one man - each person has different capabilities. The boiler should be handled and lifted by TWO PEOPLE.
Do not handle or lift unless you feel physically able.
Wear appropriate Personal Protection Equipment e.g. protective gloves, safety footwear etc.
Preparation
Co-ordinate movements - know where, and when, you are both going.
Minimise the number of times needed to move the boiler - plan ahead.
Always ensure when handling or lifting the route is clear and unobstructed. If possible avoid steps, wet or slippery surfaces, unlit areas etc. and take special care on ladders/into lofts.
Technique
When handling or lifting always use safe techniques - keep your back straight, bend your knees. Don’t twist - move your feet, avoid bending forwards and sideways and keep the load as close to your body as possible.
Where possible transport the boiler using a sack truck or other suitable trolley.
Always grip the boiler firmly, and before lifting feel where the weight is concentrated to establish the centre of gravity, repositioning yourself as necessary. See the ‘Installation’ section of these instructions for recommended lift points.
Remember
The circumstances of each installation are different. Always asses the risks associated with handling and lifting according to the individual conditions.
If at any time when installing the boiler you feel that you may have injured yourself STOP !! DO NOT ‘work through’ the pain - you may cause further injury.
IF IN ANY DOUBT DO NOT HANDLE OR LIFT THE BOILER - OBTAIN ADVICE OR ASSISTANCE BEFORE PROCEEDING !!

3.0 Appliance Operation
© Baxi Heating UK Ltd 2008
3.1 Central Heating Mode (Fig. 2)
1. With a demand for heating, the pump circulates water through the primary circuit.
2. Once main burner ignites the fan speed 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 3 minutes (Pump Overrun).
3.2 Domestic Hot Water Mode (Fig. 3)
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 Hall Effect Sensor 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.
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.
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 will require resetting once the selector switch is set to either Position (i) or Position (ii).
3.3 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.
3.4 Pump Protection
1. With the selector switch (see Section 2.1) in either the central heating or central heating and domestic hot water position, the pump will automatically operate for 1 minute in every 24 hours to prevent sticking.

6.1 Information
1. The Potterton Gold Combi HE A Condensing Combination Boiler is a ‘Water Byelaws Scheme - Approved Product’. 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 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.
• When fitting new systems flux will be evident within the system, which can lead to damage of system components.
• All systems must be thoroughly drained and flushed out. Using, for example Betz-Dearborn Sentinel X300 or X400 or Fernox Superfloc Universal Cleanser. They should be used following the flushing agent manufacturer’s instructions.
• System additives - corrosion inhibitors and flushing agents/descalers should comply to BS7593 requirements, e.g. Betz-Dearborn Sentinel X100 and Fernox-Copal which should be used following the inhibitor manufacturer’s instructions.
Failure to flush and add inhibitor to the system will invalidate the appliance warranty.
• It is important to check the inhibitor concentration after installation, system modification and at every service in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. (Test kits are available from inhibitor stockists.)
• For information or advice regarding any of the above contact Technical Enquiries.
6.3 Bypass
1. The boiler is fitted with an automatic integral bypass.
6.4 System Control
1. A 24 hour electro - mechanical timer is supplied fitted to the boiler.
2. Further external controls (e.g. room thermostat) should be fitted to optimise the economical operation of the boiler.

6.0 System Details
© Baxi Heating UK Ltd 2008
6.5 System Filling and Pressurising (Fig. 4)
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.
A filling loop & instructions are provided with the boiler
2. The filling method adopted must be in accordance with all relevant water supply regulations and use approved equipment.
3. Your attention is drawn to: for GB: Guidance G24.2 and recommendation R24.2 of the Water Regulations Guide. for IE: the current edition of I.S. 813 “Domestic Gas Installations”.
4. 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 125 litres (24, 28 models) 155 litres (33 models). For greater system capacities an additional expansion vessel must be fitted. For GB refer to BS 7074 Pt 1. For IE, the current edition of I.S. 813 “Domestic Gas Installations”.
6.7 Pressure Relief Valve (Fig. 6)
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 and temperature in excess of 100°C.
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.
4. A remote relief valve kit is available to enable the boiler to be installed in cellars or similar locations below outside ground level (kit no. 5121379).

6.8 Domestic Hot Water Circuit (Fig. 7)
1. All DHW circuits, connections, fittings, etc. should be fully in accordance with relevant standards and water supply regulations.
2. Your attention is drawn to: for GB: Guidance G17 to G24 and recommendation R17 to R24 of the Water Regulations Guide. for IE: the current edition of I.S. 813 “Domestic Gas Installations”.
3. A single check valve must be fitted as shown in Fig. 7 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 (eg. 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.
6. The boiler’s 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. Contact your Water Distribution Company for advice on suitable devices.

The boiler should be fitted within the building unless otherwise protected by a suitable enclosure i.e. garage or outhouse. (The boiler may be fitted inside a cupboard-see Section 7.3).
2. If the boiler is sited in an unheated enclosure then it is recommended to leave the ON/OFF Selector Switch in the domestic hot water and central heating position to give frost protection.
3. If the boiler is fitted in a room containing a bath or shower reference must be made to the relevant requirements. In GB this is the current I.E.E. Wiring Regulations and Building Regulations. In IE reference should be made to the current edition of I.S. 813 “Domestic Gas Installations” and the current ETCI rules.
4. If the boiler is to be fitted into a building of timber frame construction then reference must be made to the current edition of Institute of Gas Engineers Publication IGE/UP/7 (Gas Installations in Timber Framed Housing).
7.2 Clearances (Figs. 8 & 9)
1. A flat vertical area is required for the installation of the boiler.
2. These dimensions include the necessary clearances around the boiler for case removal, spanner access and air movement. Additional clearances may be required for the passage of pipes around local obstructions such as joists running parallel to the front face of the boiler.

7.3 Ventilation of Compartments
1. Where the appliance is installed in a cupboard or compartment, no air vents are required.
2. BS 5440: Part 2 refers to room sealed appliances installed in compartments. The appliance will run sufficiently cool without ventilation.
7.4 Gas Supply
1. The gas installation should be in accordance with the relevant standards. In GB this is BS 6891. In IE this is the current edition of I.S. 813 “Domestic Gas Installations”.
2. The connection to the appliance is a 22mm copper tail located at the rear of the gas service cock (Fig. 10).
3. Ensure that the pipework from the meter to the appliance is of adequate size. Do not use pipes of a smaller diameter than the boiler gas connection (22mm).
7.5 Electrical Supply
1. External wiring must be correctly earthed, polarised and in accordance with relevant regulations/rules. In GB this is the current I.E.E. Wiring Regulations. In IE reference should be made to the current edition of ETCI rules.
2. The mains supply is 230V ~ 50Hzfused at 3A.
NOTE: The method of connection to the electricity supply must facilitate complete electrical isolation of the appliance.
Connection may be via a fused double-pole isolator with a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles and servicing the boiler and system controls only.
7.6 Bath & Shower Rooms
1. As the boiler is fitted with an integral timer when installed in a room containing a bath or shower it cannot be fitted in zones 1 or 2. (Figs. 11 & 12 shows zone dimensions for a bathtub. For other examples refer to Section 601 of the Current I.E.E. Wiring Regulations). Reference must be made to the relevant requirements. In GB this is the current I.E.E.

7.7 Condensate Drain
FAILURE TO INSTALL THE CONDENSATE DISCHARGE PIPEWORK CORRECTLY WILL AFFECT THE RELIABLE OPERATION OF THE BOILER
The condensate discharge pipe MUST NOT RISE at any point along its length. There MUST be a fall of AT LEAST 2.5° (50mm per metre) along the entire run.
1. The condensate outlet will accept 21.5mm (3/4in) plastic overflow pipe which should generally discharge internally into the household drainage system. If this is not possible, discharge into an outside drain is acceptable.
2. Ensure the discharge of condensate complies with any national or local regulations in force.
BS 6798:2000 & Part H1 of the Building Regulations give further guidance.
3. The discharge pipe should be run in a proprietary drain pipe material e.g. PVC, PVC-U, ABS, PVC-C or PP.
4. Metal pipework is NOT suitable for use in condensate discharge systems.
5. The pipe should be a minimum of 21.5mm diameter and must be supported using suitably spaced clips to prevent sagging.
6. It is advisable to keep the condensate pipe internal.
7. External runs greater than 3 metres or runs in cold areas
should use 32mm waste pipe.
8. If the boiler is fitted in an unheated location the entire condensate discharge pipe should be treated as an external run.
9. In all cases discharge pipe must be installed to aid disposal of the condensate. To reduce the risk of condensate being trapped, as few bends and fittings as possible should be used.
10. When discharging condensate into a soil stack or waste pipe the effects of existing plumbing must be considered. If soil pipes or waste pipes are subjected to internal pressure fluctuations when WC's are flushed or sinks emptied then back-pressure may force water out of the boiler trap and cause appliance lockout.
Examples are shown of the following methods of termination:­i) to an internal soil & vent pipe - Fig. 13 ii) via an internal discharge branch (e.g. sink waste) - Fig. 14 iii) to a drain or gully - Fig. 15 iv) to a purpose made soakaway - Fig. 16

7.0 Site Requirements
7.8 Flue
NOTE: Due to the nature of the boiler a plume of water
vapour will be discharged from the flue. This should be taken into account when siting the flue terminal.
1. The following guidelines indicate the general requirements for siting balanced flue terminals. For GB recommendations are given in BS 5440 Pt 1. For IE recommendations are given in the current edition of I.S. 813 “Domestic Gas Installations”.
2. If the terminal discharges onto a pathway or passageway, check that combustion products will not cause a nuisance and that the terminal will not obstruct the passageway.
3. If a terminal is less than 2 metres above a balcony, above ground or above a flat roof to which people have access, then a suitable terminal guard must be provided.
IMPORTANT:
• Only ONE 25mm clearance is allowed per installation.
• Under car ports we recommend the use of the plume displacement kit.
• The terminal position must ensure the safe and nuisance - free dispersal of combustion products.

8.6 For Roof Terminals
1. In the case of a pitched roof 25 - 50 degrees, position the lead
tile to replace/flash over existing roof tiling. Make an aperture in the roof suitable for the lower tube of the roof terminal and ensure the integrity of the roof cover is maintained. The adjustable plastic collar can either be positioned on the lead tile or the lower tube of the roof terminal prior to the final positioning of the vertical flue through the tile. Check the collar is correctly located to suit required roof pitch (either 25° to 38° or 37° to 50°). From inside the roof adjust the flue to a vertical position and secure to the roof structure with the clamp supplied.
2. For flat roof installations the aluminium flashing must be
incorporated into the roof covering and the appropriate aperture made in the roof decking. The vertical flue is lowered onto the flashing making sure the collar of the flue locates securely with the flashing. (A mastic seal may be necessary). From inside the roof, adjust the flue to a vertical position and secure to the roof structure with the clamp supplied.
IMPORTANT: If the boiler is not fitted immediately after the flue system, temporary precautions must be taken to prevent rain entry into the room of installation. Any precautionary measures must be removed prior to commissioning the boiler.
8.7 Flue Dimensions
The standard horizontal telescopic flue kit allows for lengths between 100mm and 685mm from elbow to terminal (Fig. 19).
The maximum permissible equivalent flue length is:
10 metres (60/100 system) 20 metres (80/125 system)
8.8 Flue Trim
1. The rubber flue trim supplied may be fitted to either the
outside wall or on the inner wall of installation.
8.9 Terminal Guard (Fig. 21)
1. When codes of practice dictate the use of terminal guards, they
can be obtained from most Plumbers’ and Builders’ Merchants.
2. There must be a clearance of at least 50mm between any part
of the terminal and the guard.
3. When ordering a terminal guard, quote the appliance name
and model number.
4. The flue terminal guard should be positioned centrally over the
terminal and fixed as illustrated.
8.10 Flue Deflector (Fig. 20)
1. If required, push the flue deflector over the terminal end and
rotate to the optimum angle for deflecting plume. Secure the deflector to the terminal with screws provided.

1. This kit is recommended for installations where the condensate plume emitted from the flue may cause a nuisance or affect the surroundings.
2. The terminal must be positioned outside the building with the air inlet facing downward and outlet connection upwards.
3. The plume outlet must always be at least 45° to the wall, with the ‘peak’ uppermost to prevent rain entry (Figs. 24 &
25), and be at least 2 metres above ground level. It must be secured as shown in Fig. 19. The plume outlet must also be at least 500mm from the air inlet in any direction (Fig. 25).
NOTE: The outlet must be positioned so that any condensate plume is directed away from adjacent surfaces. There must be a constant fall along the entire length of the flue system from the outlet back to the boiler.
4. It is possible to reduce or increase (with the addition of extensions) the length of either or both the 60/100 concentric and 60Ø exhaust.
5. Standard concentric flue extension kits may be added between the boiler elbow and the terminal assembly.
6. The minimum length of the concentric flue is 100mm when measured from the edge of the flue elbow.
IMPORTANT: The maximum equivalent length of concentric flue is:- 8 metres Additional bends may be fitted in the concentric flue, but the equivalent length must be reduced by 1 metre (93° bend) or 0.5 metres (45° bend).
7. 60Ø 1 metre extensions (including support bracket), and additional 93° & 45° elbows are available. Any additional 93° & 45° elbows must be accounted for when calculating flue lengths.
NOTE: Permitted positions of the plume outlet relative to doors, windows etc. are the same as for conventional concentric flues as detailed in the main Installation & Servicing Instructions and BS5440 Pt. 1. It is NOT necessary to fit a terminal guard over the air inlet or the plume outlet.

In Fig. 27 opposite an additional 93° bend and pair of 45° elbows have been included in the 60Ø exhaust. Also 3 straight extension pieces have been used.
To calculate total length:­Length of 60Ø supplied in kit = 1 metre 3 x 1 metre Extensions = 3 metres 1 x 93° Elbow = 1 metre 2 x 45° Elbow = 1 metre (0.5 metres each)
Total 60Ø = 6 metres
After consulting the table in Example 3 it can be determined that the concentric flue could be up to approximately 2.3 metres long.

9.2 Determining Permissible Lengths
In the graph the solid line diagonal represents the relationship between the concentric flue assembly (and any extensions) and the 60Ø exhaust (and any extensions or additional bends).
Example 1 - Not Permissible
If, for instance, a concentric length of 5 metres was required and the 60Ø exhaust needed to be 6 metres the graph shows that this combination would NOT be permissible as the intersection point would be above the solid diagonal line.
Example 2 - Flue Lengths OK
Where both lengths have been determined they can be applied to the graph to check that the installation is permissible. For example, if it was known that 2 metres of concentric flue and 4 metres of 60Ø exhaust were required, the values could be applied to the graph as shown in Example 2.. As the point of intersection of the dotted lines is below the solid diagonal line, the combination of lengths is shown to be acceptable.
Example 3 - Flue Lengths OK
In the example shown in Fig. 4 assume that the concentric part of the flue needs to be 2.3 metres long. Find the position of ‘2.3’ on the horizontal axis of the graph and then project upwards to the solid diagonal line. This is represented by the vertical thick dotted line. Where this dotted line intersects with the solid diagonal line on the graph, project across to the vertical axis. As can be seen this corresponds with 6 metres. Therefore, the total equivalent length of the 60Ø exhaust can be up to 6 metres. Any bend equivalencies must be accounted for i.e. 93° bends are equal to 1 metre, each 45° bend to 0.5 metres.

9.3 General Fitting Notes
1. Cut a hole in the external wall which the concentric flue assembly will pass through. The hole should allow the flue to fall back to the boiler at an angle of at least 1.5°.
2. When completed the terminal must be at least 2 metres above ground level (Fig. 19).
3. Measure and cut to size the concentric assembly and any extensions that are being used.
4. Insert the concentric assembly through the hole from outside the building.
5. If required, the flexible flue trim should be fitted prior to this as it cannot be fitted after. Use the large ‘Jubilee’ clip to secure the trim to the flue (See Fig. 20, trim shown dotted), with the screw part of the clip at the bottom.
6. Connect any extensions or elbows that are being used to the concentric assembly. Engage the extension, elbow or concentric assembly in the boiler flue elbow. Fit the boiler flue elbow to the boiler adaptor.
7. Ensure that the concentric assembly and any extensions fall back to the boiler at an angle of at least 1.5° and that the external air inlet is to the bottom.
8. Use suitable brackets to support the concentric assembly and any extensions, and make good inside and outside.
9. The 60Ø exhaust can now be fitted. Slide the adaptor over the plain end of the 60Ø exhaust (Fig. 22) and engage the exhaust in the terminal. Slide the adaptor down over the spigot. Mark and drill the adaptor, using a 2mm bit, as shown in Fig. 21. Secure the adaptor to the spigot using one of the screws supplied.
10. If it is necessary to shorten the 60Ø exhaust or any of the extensions, the excess material must be cut from the plain end of the pipe.
11. Determine the position of the 60Ø exhaust and mark on the wall a suitable position for the support bracket. If extensions are being used, a support bracket is supplied in each kit.
12. Drill the wall, and fit the bracket(s) using the plug and screw provided.
13. Mark and drill the 60Ø exhaust, using a 2mm bit, as shown in Fig. 23. Complete the installation of the 60Ø exhaust, securing in the brackets.
14. Fit the 93° elbow/plume outlet and secure with the two remaining screws supplied. Ensure the plume outlet is at least 45° to the wall and that the ‘peak’ is uppermost (Fig. 24).

9.3 General Fitting Notes (cont.)
15. For aesthetic purposes it is permissible to route the
60Ø exhaust in an enclosed box, but the air inlet and plume outlet MUST remain in free air.
16. It is also possible to separate the plume outlet from the
93° elbow to allow the flue to be installed as shown in Fig. 34.
17. To do this, first slacken the two screws retaining the
plume outlet to the elbow, and remove the outlet (Fig. 35). The elbow can now be used to connect the vertical to horizontal 60Ø exhaust (Fig. 34). Retighten the screws in the elbow.
18. The outlet can now be fitted into the female end of an
60Ø extension piece. It must be secured using two of the screws supplied in the bag with the ‘Jubilee’ clip.
19. Mark the female end of the extension at 30mm as
shown in two positions, directly opposite each other (Fig. 36).
20. Using a suitable bit (e.g. 2mm), drill through the
extension and outlet. Secure using two of the screws supplied.
21. The remaining screw must be used to secure the
adaptor to the concentric terminal.
22. When the plume outlet is positioned under a balcony
or other projection (Fig. 37) it must protrude at least 200mm (it is not necessary to extend it further than this).
23. When under balconies or projections it is permissible to
rotate the concentric flue length up to 70°, clockwise or anti-clockwise (Fig. 38), if there is insufficient space to connect vertically.
24.This will allow the connection of the exhaust to the
outlet spigot.
25. All other minimum & maximum dimensions must be
adhered to, and the air inlet positioned such that it will not be subject to rain entry.

13.0 Servicing
13 .1 Annual Servicing
1. For reasons of safety and economy, it is recommended that the boiler is serviced annually. Servicing must be performed by a competent person in accordance with B.S. 7967-4:2007.
If a suitably calibrated combustion analyser is available it may not be necessary to perform a full strip down of the appliance. Proceed as follows. Check for/inspect:­Evidence of leakage of products of combustion Water leaks Heat stress Deterioration such as corrosion Visible condition of seals and joints Flue system and ventilation Condensate drain system Operation at designed maximum heat input
If the above are satisfactory perform a combustion check The CO/CO
2
ratio must be less than 0.004 and the CO
2
should be 8.7% ± 0.2 (max. rate) and 8.4% ± 0.2 (min. rate). This can be adjusted - see Section 15.0 - if the readings are incorrect. When correct combustion readings cannot be achieved by adjustment a full strip down must be performed - see below. Carefully check items such as the burner, injector and heat exchanger for blockage or damage, rectifying as necessary. Re­check the combustion. Once satisfactory readings have been achieved and any other defects corrected complete the relevant Service Interval Record section of the Benchmark Commissioning Checklist at the rear of this publication.
Where no suitable analyser is available a strip down service must be performed as described below.
2. After servicing, complete the relevant Service Interval Record section of the Benchmark Commissioning Checklist at the rear of this publication.
If a full strip-down is to be performed proceed as follows:-
3. Ensure that the boiler is cool.
4. Ensure that both the gas and electrical supplies to the boiler are isolated.
5. Slacken the screws securing the facia panel. Lift the outercase panel so that its securing tabs are clear of the facia. Remove the panel, allowing the facia to hinge down (Fig. 73).

15.1 Checking the CO
2
IMPORTANT: The CO2 must only be checked and adjusted if a suitable calibrated combustion analyser is available.
1. The combustion (CO
2
) may be checked using a suitably calibrated analyser after running the boiler for several minutes.
2. To do this it is necessary to set the boiler to ‘Calibration Mode’.
3. Ensure that all external controls are calling for heat. The actual current boiler temperature is shown on the display.
4. Turn both temperature control knobs fully anticlockwise, then quickly turn the DHW temperature knob
1
/4clockwise
twice and back fully anticlockwise (Fig. 105).
5. The display will now alternate between ‘SF’ and the current boiler temperature and both green LEDs will flash (Figs. 106 & 107).
6. Turn the CH temperature knob fully clockwise. As the knob is turned the display will change, indicating the fan speed.
7. The display will show ‘00’, indicating maximum rate, then revert to ‘P ‘ alternating with the current boiler temperature (Figs 108, 109 & 110).
8. Remove the plug from the flue adaptor test point. Insert the analyser probe and allow time for the reading to settle (Fig. 111).
The CO
2
should be 8.7% ± 0.2
9. It is possible to alter the CO
2
by adjustment of the gas valve. Remove the plastic cover from the ‘Max Rate’ adjustment screw. At maximum rate the ‘Max. Rate’ adjustment screw should be turned, using a suitable hexagon key, until the correct reading is obtained (Fig. 112). Turning clockwise will reduce the CO
2
. Anticlockwise will
increase the CO
2.
10. The CO2must then be checked at minimum rate. Turn the CH temperature knob fully anticlockwise. As the knob is turned the display will change, indicating the fan speed. When the display reads ‘ 0’ the boiler runs at minimum rate.
The CO
2
should be 8.4% ± 0.2.
11. With the boiler on minimum, the ‘Min. Rate’ adjustment screw must be altered, using a suitable hexagon key, after removing the cap (Fig. 112). If the CO
2
is reset at either boiler rate it must be rechecked at the other rate and also adjusted if required.
12. The ‘Calibration Function’ is maintained for 20 minutes unless the maximum CH temperature is exceeded. The function can be disabled at any time by turning the DHW knob.

18.0 Fault Finding
© Baxi Heating UK Ltd 2008
NOTE: When instructed to turn the
selector to the reset position turn the selector switch fully anticlockwise against the spring pressure to the reset position and hold for 5 seconds to reset the boiler.
18.1 Initial Fault Finding Checks
1. Check that gas, water and electrical supplies are available at the boiler.
2. Electrical supply = 230V ~ 50 Hz.
3. CH water system pressurised to 0.5 bar minimum when the boiler is cold.
4. The preferred minimum gas pressure is 20 mbar.
5. Carry out electrical system checks, i.e. Earth Continuity, Resistance to Earth, Short Circuit and Polarity with a suitable meter.
NOTE: These checks must be repeated after any servicing or fault finding.
6. Ensure all external controls are calling for heat and check all external and internal fuses. Before any servicing or replacement of parts, ensure the gas and electrical supplies are isolated.
18.2 Error Codes
1. If a fault occurs on the boiler an error code may be shown by the facia display.
2. The codes are either two or three digit, preceded by the letter 'E'. For example, code E133 will be displayed by 'E1' alternating with '33'. E50 is shown as 'E' then '50'
E20, E28 & E50 indicate faulty or incorrect components.
E110 shows overheat of the primary water and E130 overheat of the flue system.
E119 is displayed when the primary water pressure is less than 0.5 bar.
E133 indicates that the gas supply has been interrupted, ignition has failed or the flame has not been detected.
E125 is displayed in either of two situations:­i) If within 15 seconds of the burner lighting the boiler temperature has not changed by 1°. ii) If within 10 minutes of the burner lighting the boiler temperature twice exceeds the selected temperature by 30°. In these instances poor primary circulation is indicated.
3. By turning the selector switch to the 'Reset' position for a minimum of 5 seconds when E110, E130 & E133 are displayed it is possible to relight the boiler.
4. If this does not have any effect, or the codes are displayed regularly further investigation is required.
