2Installation regulations
Gas Safety (Installation & Use) Regulations 1998: All
gas appliances must be installed by a competent person. Failure to install correctly could lead to prosecution.
The manufacturers notes must not be taken, in any way,
as overriding statutory obligations.
The appliance must be installed in accordance with the
current IEE Wiring Regulations, local Building Regulations, Building Standards (Scotland) (Consolidation),
bye-laws of the local Water Company, Health and
Safety Document 635 (Electricity at Work Regulations
1989) and any other local requirements.
Product Liability regulations indicate that, in certain circumstances, the installer can be held responsible, not
only for mistakes on his part but also for damage resulting from the use of faulty materials. We advise the
installer to avoid any risk by using only quality approved
branded fittings.
The relevant British Standards should be followed i.e.
• BS 6798: Specification for the installation of gas
fired hot water boilers of rated input not exceeding
60kW
• BS 5449: Central Heating for Domestic Premises
• BS 5546: Installation of gas hot water supplies for
domestic purposes
• BS 5440:1: Flues and ventilation for gas appliances
of rated input not exceeding 70 kW (net): Flues
• BS 5440:2: Flues and ventilation for gas appliances
of rated input not exceeding 70 kW (net): Air
Supply
• BS 6891: Installation of low pressure gas pipework
installations up to 28mm (R1).
• BS 7074:1: Code of practice for domestic heating
and hot water supply
• BS 7671: Requirements for Electrical Installation.
B Appliance should only be installed in sealed central
heating and hot water systems.
B To avoid gas formation in the system, galvanised radi-
ators or pipes must not be used.
B If a room thermostat is used: do not fit a thermostatic
radiator valve on the radiator in the primary room.
B This appliance uses an automatically variable pump.
An auto-bypass must not be fitted.
B Add a suitable anti-freeze fluid to the water in the
central heating system.
Suitable products are available from Betz-Dearborn
Tel: 0151-4209563, Fernox Tel: 01799-550811
and Salamandor on 0121 378 0952.
B In our experience, the addition of sealing agents to
the water in the central heating system can cause
problems (deposits in the heat exchanger). For that
reason we advise against their use.
3.2Domestic hot water
Any regulations specified by the local water company
must be observed.
The final 600 mm of the mains cold water connection to
the appliance should be made in copper tube only.
The appliance is suitable for a mains supply having a
maximum pressure of 10 bar. A pressure reducing valve
must be fitted, if necessary.
The hot water outlet temperature is set to be capable of
achieving a maximum of 60°C. The maximum temperature and the frequency of the recharge of the heat store
may be reset.
The water flow rate of 11.0 l/min (RD532i), 12.7 l/min
(RD537i) and 13.5 l/min (RD542i) will give a temperature rise of 40°C. If a higher rise is required then the
flow must be reduced at the tap and the discharge temperature will rise up to the maximum set figure.
The temperature rise, up to the maximum set by the
user, is automatically maintained by the modulation of
the heat input. In winter, when the mains temperature is
very low, the water flow, adjusted at the tap or shower,
should be reduced to maintain the required delivery
temperature.
It is suggested that long pipe runs to taps or showers
be insulated to prevent the rapid cooling of the water.
All types of single lever mixer taps and thermostatic
mixer units suitable for a mains pressure of up to 10 bar
can be used.
The head of a loose-head shower must not be allowed
to fall within 25 mm of the top the bath to prevent the
risk of water being drawn back into the mains. Alternatively the shower must be fitted with an anti-syphonage
device at the point of the flexible hose connections.
Over-rim bidets may be connected to the appliance provided that it is in accordance with the requirements of
the local water company. The outlet(s) should be
shrouded and unable to have any temporary hand held
spray attached. No anti-syphonage arrangements are
necessary.
In exceptionally hard water areas a device to prevent
scale formation may be fitted or, alternatively, the maximum temperature reset to about 45°C which may
reduce the risk of scale formation. The installation of a
scale inhibitor assembly should be in accordance with
the requirements of the local water company. Artificially
softened water must not be used to fill the central heating system. An isolating valve should be fitted to allow
for servicing.
Devices, such as water meters or back-flow prevention valves, capable of preventing the flow of
expansion water must not be fitted unless separate arrangements have been made.
A Zilmet Z160 expansion vessel is the preferred type. A
thread sealant compatible with potable water must be
used. The vessel should be connected into the cold
water mains inlet pipe as close as possible to the appliance.
3.3Sealed systems
The appliance must not be operated without the system
being full of water, properly vented and pressurised.
The expansion vessel has a volume of 10 litres and is
charged to a pressure of 0.75 bar.
The water capacity of the system is shown in table 12,
page 31. If a greater capacity is required then an additional expansion vessel must be fitted into the system
return as close to the appliance as possible. The system
pressure can be set up to a maximum of 1.5 bar with
1 bar being the normal setting.
If the system pressure is greater than 2.5 bar when the
appliance is operating at maximum temperature then an
additional expansion vessel must be fitted into the system return as close to the appliance as possible.
The filling point must be at low level and arranged as
shown in figs. 5 and 6.
The pressure relief valve is set to operate at 3 bar.
There must be no connection to the mains without the
approval of the local water company. All connections in
the system must be capable of withstanding a pressure
of up to 3 bar and the radiator valves conform to the
B Always turn off the gas cock before car-
rying out any work on components
which carry gas.
i
Fixing of the appliance, gas and flue connections, commissioning of the system
and electrical connections may only be
carried out by competent persons authorised by CORGI.

requirements of BS2767:10.
Fit Thermostatic Radiator Valves to radiators in the
sleeping accommodation and not to the radiator where
the room thermostat is sited, this must be left open.
Repeated venting probably indicates a leak and this
must be rectified to ensure the proper operation of the
appliance.
No galvanised radiators or pipes must be used.
If any system water treatment is required then
only products suitable for use with Aluminium
shall be used i.e Fernox- Copal or Superconcentrate or Sentinal X100, in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions. The use of any other
substances will invalidate the guarantee. The pH
value of the system water must be less than 8 or
the appliance guarantee will be invalidated.
Suitable products are available from Betz-Dearborn Tel:
0151-4209563, Fernox Tel: 01799-550811 and Salamandor on 0121 378 0952.
A drain cock to BS2879 must be fitted to the lowest
point of the system.
IMPORTANT: Check that no dirt is left in the
water pipework as this could damage the appliance. Thoroughly flush the heating system and
the mains water supply before fitting the appliance to the wall in accordance with the recommendations of BS7593:1992.

3.4Siting the appliance
Regulations concerning the Installation Site
B Relevant national regulations must be complied with
section 3.9.1.
B Consult the installation instructions for details of min-
imum clearances required.
Combustion air
In order to prevent corrosion, the combustion air must
not contain any corrosive substances.
Substances classed as corrosion-promoting include
halogenated hydrocarbons which contain chlorine and
fluorine compounds and are contained in some solvents, paints, adhesives, aerosol propellants and household cleaners, for example.
Surface temperature
The max. surface temperature of the casing and the flue
is less than 85 °C.
This means that, no special safety precautions are
required with regard to flammable building materials
and fitted furniture. The specified clearances must be
maintained.
Cupboard/Compartment
The appliance can be installed in a cupboard/compartment need for airing clothes providing that the requirements of BS6798 and BS5440:2 are followed. The low
casing losses from the appliance eliminate the need for
ventilation openings in the compartment.

Installation
Condensate Termination and Route
The appliance has a built-in syphonic condensate trap
eliminating the need for external traps. Connect to the
22mm plastic drain pipe and extend the pipe run away
from the control panel and appliance witha constant fall
of 2.5° or 25mm in every metre. See Fig. 12
The condensate pipe can terminate into any of four
areas:
Fig. 11
Whilst all of the above methods are acceptable it is
always the best practice to terminate the condense pipe
via an internal waste system.This will eliminate the need
for any external condensate pipe runs which can be susceptible to freezing in extreme weather.
Fig. 12 Recommended route of the condensate drain
External condensate pipework
The syphonic condensate trap collects condensate into
a trap which releases it in 100 ml quantities. This helps
to prevent the discharge from freezing.
If there is no alternative and the condensate pipe has to
be externally run, the following should be considered:
• The pipe run should take the shortest practical route.
• The pipework should be insulated with weather
resistant insulation.
• The pipe should terminate as close as possible to the
ground or drain, whilst still allowing the condensate
to safely disperse. This would prevent wind blowing
up the pipe.
• The pipework should be installed with the minimum
of horizontal runs and with a downward slope of at
least 2.5 °.

3.9Flue Systems
The only flue systems that may be used are those supplied with the boiler.
The flue system must be installed in accordance with
the requirements of BS5440:1.
Standard 100 mm flue system
The standard concentric flue system provides for a horizontal length of up to 4m (3.5m RD542i). Full instructions for fitting this flue are in Subsection 3.9.2
“Installation of the flue”.
Alternative 125 mm diameter flue systems
Installation instructions for the alternative flue systems
are sent with the appropriate flue kit.
Systems are available for a maximum horizontal length
of 13m (RD532i),10m (RD537i/542i).
A vertical flue system up to a height of 13.7 m (RD532i)
and10.7 m (RD537i/542i) is available.
45° and 90° flue bends can be used with a reduction in
flue length of 2 m for each 90° bend and 1 m for each
45° bend used.
IMPORTANT: Any horizontal flue system fitted to a
condensing boiler must incline from the appliance at an
angle of 3° (30 mm per metre length) to prevent condensate dripping from the flue terminal.
Note, the standard 100mm horizontal flue requires only
a 0.5° incline from the boiler as the inner exhaust pipe is
inclined at 2.5° inside the outer pipe.
This means that the clearance above the appli-
ance must be increased to match the duct length.

Installation
3.9.1Siting the Flue Terminal
The flue must be installed in accordance with
BS 5440:1 and the Building Regulations. Flue terminals
in carports and under balconies are to be avoided.
The terminal must be positioned so that it does not
cause an obstruction nor the combustion products a
nuisance. See fig. 15 and table 10.
The terminal will, at times, give out a plume of water
vapour and consideration must be given to this when
choosing a terminal position. Keep clear of security
lighting, activated by passive infra-red sensing heads.
If the terminal is less than 2 m above a surface to which
people have access then a guard must be fitted. The
guard must be evenly spaced about the terminal with a
space of 50 mm in each direction and fixed with plated
screws.
A guard Type K6 for the standard horizontal flue, can be
obtained from Tower Flue Components, Vale Rise, Tonbridge TN9 1TB.

switch on at intervals, even if no hot water is being
drawn.
ECO mode with demand detection, button is lit
The demand detection function enables maximum gas
and water economy.
Briefly turning a hot water tap on and then off again signals demand to the appliance which then heats up the
water to the set temperature.
Hot water is thus available in about 1 minute.
ECO mode, button is lit
Water is not heated up until hot water is drawn. This
means that there is a longer waiting period before hot
water is available.

Benchmark
The “Benchmark” initiative is the new code of practice to encourage the correct installation, commissioning and servicing of
domestic central heating boilers and system equipment.
The “log-book” is a vital document that must be completed by the
installer at the time of installation. It confirms that the boiler has
been installed and commissioned according to the manufacturers
instructions.
Without the completion of the “log-book”, manufacturers may
refuse to respond to a call–out from a householder, who will be
advised that he or she must call back the installer, who has not fulfilled his obligations to record the information required by the initiative.

General notes
1General notes
To get the best from your appliance please read these instructions
carefully.
Sealed heating systems
The appliance is fitted to a sealed heating system which is prepressurised. Your installer will tell you of the minimum and maximum pressure which must be indicated on the pressure gauge.
Check regularly that the pressure is maintained and contact your
installer or maintenance engineer if there is a permanent significant drop in the pressure. If the system loses pressure it should
be repressurised and the cause of the fall investigated.
Central heating systems
During the first few hours of operation of the central heating system, check that all radiators are being heated at an even rate. If the
top of a radiator is at a lower temperature than the bottom then it
should be vented by releasing air through the venting screw at the
top of the radiator. Ask your installer to show you how this is done.
Repeated venting will reduce the quantity of water in the system
and this must be replenished for safe and satisfactory operation
of the appliance.
Should water leaks be found in the system or excessive venting is
required then a service engineer must be contacted to inspect the
installation and rectify any fault.
Only additives that are compatible with aluminium may be used in
the system. Any incompatible additive used will invalidate the
guarantee.
Condensate drain
This is a condensing appliance and the terminal will, at times, give
out a plume of water vapour. This is quite normal.
The appliance produces quantities of condense which is discharged regularly through the siphon.

Clearances
Your installer will have provided adequate space around the appliance for safety and servicing access. Do not restrict this space
with the addition of cupboards, shelves etc. next to the appliance.

Room thermostat
A room temperature controller is may be fitted to control the central heating. Refer to the instructions supplied with the thermostat
for information on siting and setting.
Cylinder thermostat - System boilers
The cylinder thermostat should be set to 60°C which will be satisfactory for bathing/washing in normal circumstances.
Thermostatic radiator valves
It is recommended that this type of valve is fitted to all the radiators
except one, usually the radiator where the room temperature controller is fitted. They should conform to the requirements of
BS2767:10.
Showers, bidets, taps and mixing valves – Combination
Boilers
Standard hot and cold taps and mixing valves must be suitable for
operating at mains pressure. Thermostatically controlled or pressure equalising shower valves will guard against the flow of water
at too high a temperature.
Hot and cold mains fed water can be supplied directly to an overrim flushing bidet subject to local water company requirements.
8
6 720 610 604 GB (03.06)
Page 61
General notes
With all mains fed systems the flow of water from individual taps
will vary with the number of outlets operated simultaneously and
the cold water mains supply pressure to the property.
Flow balancing using “ball-o-fix” type valves is recommended to
avoid an excessive reduction in flow to individual outlets.
For further information contact British Gas Technical Services
Department.
Hot and cold flow – Combination Boilers
The flow of water demanded from both hot and cold service outlets is dependent upon the mains supply, it may not be possible in
some installations to operate all outlets simultaneously.
Water mains failure – Combination Boilers
If there is a failure of the mains water supply then no water will be
available at a tap or shower until the mains supply is restored. The
appliance will still operate in the central heating mode.
Use in hard water areas – Combination Boilers
In exceptionally hard water areas a device to prevent scale formation may be fitted. Installation of a scale inhibitor assembly should
be in accordance with the requirements of the local water company. An isolating valve should be fitted to allow for servicing.
Alternatively the maximum temperature of the domestic hot water
may be reset to about 45 °C which will reduce the risk of scale
formation in these hard water areas.
Ventilation
This is a room sealed appliance and does not require any air for
combustion from inside the house. If the appliance is fitted into a
cupboard or a compartment is built around the appliance after
installation then the compartment must be separated from the
boiler space by a perforated non-combustible partition as
described in BS 6798.
Notwithstanding the requirements of BS 6798, there is no need
for ventilation openings to be provided in the compartment
because of the low heat loss from the casing.
6 720 610 604 GB (03.06)

Page 62
General notes
Do not allow the flue terminal fitted on the outside wall to become
obstructed or damaged.
Pump
The pump is a fully modulating type to which the parameters have
been set by the manufacturer and must not be adjusted.

Tips on saving energy
6Tips on saving energy
Heating economically
The boiler is designed to provide a high level of comfort while
keeping gas consumption and the resulting environmental effect
as low as possible. The gas supply to the burner is controlled
according to the level of demand for heat. The boiler continues to
operate with a low flame if the demand for heat reduces. The technical term for this process is modulating control. Modulating control keeps temperature fluctuations small and provides even
distribution of heat throughout the home. This means that the
boiler may stay on for relatively long periods but will use less gas
than an appliance that continually switches on and off.
Central heating systems with room thermostats/thermostatic
radiator valves
The central heating control on the boiler should be set to the maximum rated temperature of the central heating system or to position “E”, when the maximum central heating water temperature
obtained is 75°C.
The temperature can be set individually in each room (except primary room with the room thermostat) using the thermostatic radiator valves. If you wish to have a lower temperature in the primary
room than in the other rooms, leave the room thermostat at the set
temperature and turn down the radiator using the radiator valve.
Reduced-output operation
Considerable fuel savings can be made by slightly reducing the
room temperature. Lowering the temperature by 1 °C can bring
about energy savings of up to 5 %. However, it is not advisable to
allow any room temperature to fall below +15 °C. The room temperature for reduced-output mode can be set separately on the
room thermostat. Instructions are given in the control unit operating instructions.

General Information
Hot water
A lower setting on the hot water temperature control can result in
considerable energy savings.
For combi appliances:
The on-demand activation using the ECO-button makes possi-
ble the maximum savings of gas and water.
Now you know how to heat your home economically with the RD
532i/RD 537i/RD 542i /RD 430i gas condensing boiler. If you
have any other questions, please contact your installer – or write
to us.

Excellence comes as standard
Thank you for purchasing an RD 532/RD 428 condensing appliance.
The RD 532/RD 428 Series has been developed by the Bosch
Group and the strictest quality control standards are demanded
throughout every stage of production.
Indeed, the Bosch Group have led the field in innovative appliance
design and performance for many years.
The result is that your new RD 532/RD 428 appliance offers you
the very best of everything – quality, efficiency, economical running costs, proven reliability and value for money.
What’s more, you also have the assurance of our no nonsense
2 year parts and labour guarantee.
And it’s backed up by British Gas - Offering a complete maintenance scheme to keep your boiler operating at peak condition and
efficiency.
No wonder that more and more people are agreeing that when it
is gas, it has to be a British Gas/Scottish Gas Condensing appliance.
Benchmark
The “Benchmark” initiative is the new code of practice to encourage the correct installation, commissioning and servicing of
domestic central heating boilers and system equipment.
The “log-book” is a vital document that must be completed by the
installer at the time of installation. It confirms that the boiler has
been installed and commissioned according to the manufacturers
instructions.
Without the completion of the “log-book”, manufacturers may
refuse to respond to a call–out from a householder, who will be
advised that he or she must call back the installer, who has not fulfilled his obligations to record the information required by the initiative.
