• Any system connected to the boiler must not

have a separate electrical supply.

WATER SUPPLY:

The following are general requirements and if necessary the advice of the local water company should be sought before fitting the appliance.

• The appliance cold water supply should be the first connection off the water main where possible.

• Maximum mains fed water pressure 10 bar. If necessary, fit a pressure reducing valve.

IMPORTANT: Non-return, back flow prevention devices (including those associated with water meters) fitted to the mains water supply can cause a pressure build up which could damage the boiler and other household appliances.

• Where the water main supply has a nonreturn, back flow prevention valve fitted, a mini expansion vessel (A) must be connected to the mains water inlet pipe (B) between the non-return valve (C) and the boiler (D) as shown opposite.

Use in hard water areas:

Normally there is no need for water treatment to prevent scale formation as the maximum temperature of the heat exchanger is limited by the control circuit. In areas where the temporary water hardness exceeds 200ppm, consideration may need to be given to the fitting of a scale prevention device. In such circumstances, the advice of the local water authority should be sought.

21.5mmØ polypropylene pipe.

• The condensate pipework must fall at least

50mm per metre towards the outlet and should take the shortest practicable route and not exceed 3 metres outside the building. If a run greater than 3m is required, 32mmØ polypropylene pipe must be used.

• The pipework must follow one of the options

shown opposite:

a - Internal waste drainage system

b - Soil/vent stack

c - External drainage system

d - External condensate absorption point

• Condensate pipework must not be connected

to rainwater downpipes.

• Use waterproof pipe insulation in exposed

positions and for external pipework

IMPORTANT: Condensate pipework must not leak and the condensate trap must be filled with water before the boiler is started to prevent the possibility of potentially harmful flue products escaping via the condensate route.

A - Condensate from the boiler condensate

trap (supplied) which has a 75mm minimum water seal.

B - Sink.

C - 21.5mm Ø polypropylene condensate pipe.

D - Gully.

E - Internal soil and vent stack. F - 300mm x 100mm Ø sealed plastic tube.

G - Ground level.

H - Drainage holes 50mm from base of tube

(12mm Ø at 25mm centres) facing away from building.

I - Limestone chippings.

PRESSURE RELIEF PIPEWORK:

IMPORTANT: The pressure relief valve is a safety device for the boiler and if activated may discharge boiling water or steam through the relief valve drain pipe. Care should be taken when siting the outlet pipe so that it does not cause an obstruction or discharge above a window, entrance or other public access where it could cause a hazard.

• The pressure relief drain pipe (K) should be

at least 15mm diameter copper pipe and run downwards away from the boiler and discharge away from any electrics or other hazard, preferably to an external drain or soakaway.

• Pipe (K) should be finished with a partial

bend, near the outlet to face the external boiler casing (as shown) to help prevent freezing.

J - External boiler casing.

K - Pressure relief pipe.

CLEARANCES

WARN ING:

This appliance should not be installed where there is a potential for excessive ground water coverage.

This boiler is only suitable for installing externally at a suitable location onto a fixed permanent rigid surface capable of supporting the boiler weight.

There must be a sufficient hard standing around the appliance to allow for servicing.

The boiler must be installed on a flat level surface to ensure that condensate does not enter the primary heat exchanger.

Tarmac and wood hardstandings are not recommended.

CLEARANCES: Min service & flue clearances

Rear = flue outlet on side 150mm** Rear = rear flue outlet 2500mm*

It is strongly recommended that the flue terminal faces away from walls to reduce the possibility of wetting occuring.

*This can be reduced to 1200mm if there is at least 2500mm clearance on both sides of the

flue.

** 200mm if a high level terminal is used exiting

through the rear panel.

1 An opening means an openable

element, such as an openable window, or a permanent opening such as a permanently open air vent.

Notwithstanding the dimensions above, a terminal should be at least 300mm from combustible material, e.g. a window frame.

2 A way of providing protection of

combustible material would be to fit a heat shield at least 750mm wide.

• Flue terminals must be positioned to avoid combustion products entering into buildings.

• The flue must be fitted and terminated in accordance with the recommendations of BS5410.

• The flue must not cause an obstruction.

• Discharge from the flue outlet must not be a nuisance.

• Flue gases have a tendency to plume and in certain weather conditions a white plume of condensation will be discharged from the flue outlet which could be regarded as a nuisance, for example, near security lighting.

• There should be no restriction preventing the clearance of combustion products from the terminal.

• The air inlet/outlet duct and the terminal of the boiler must not be closer than 25mm to any combustible material. Detailed recommendations on protection of combustible materials are given in BS 5410:1

• A protective terminal guard must be fitted if the terminal is 2m or less above a surface where people have access.

• The following additional guidelines (from part L Exceptions Guidance Document) are recommended when determining the flue outlet position:

• Avoid discharging flue gases into car ports or narrow passageways.

• *Minimum distance of the flue terminal from above ground is 2100mm where directed to a public footpath, private access route or a frequently used area and 2500mm from a car parking area.

Notes:

1. Terminals should be positioned so as to avoid products of combustion accumulating in stagnant pockets around the building or entering into buildings.

2. Vertical structure in N, O and P includes tank or lift rooms, parapets, dormers etc.

3. Terminating positions should be at least 1.8m from an oil storage tank unless a wall with at least 30 min fire resistance and

extending 300mm higher and wider than the tank is provided between the tank and the terminating position.

4. Where a flue is terminated less than 600mm away from a projection above it and the projection consists of plastics or has a combustible or painted surface, then a heat shield of at least 750mm wide should be fitted.

5. If the lowest part of the terminal is less than 2m above the ground, balcony, flat roof or other place to which any person has access, the terminal should be protected by a guard.

6. Notwithstanding the dimensions given above, a terminal should not be sited closer than 300mm to combustible material. In the case of a thatched roof, double this separation distance should be provided. It is also advisable to treat the thatch with a fire retardant material and close wire in the vicinity of the flue.

7. It is essential that a flue or chimney does not pass through the roof within the shaded area delineated by dimensions Q and R.

8. Where protection is provided for plastic components, such as guttering, it is essential that this is to the standard specified by the

manufacturer of the plastic components.
