1:2 IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
To obtain the best possible performance and trouble free operation from your Boiler, it is important that you read these instructions carefully. Your Eco Boiler has built-in safety features, which are detailed in the relevant section of this manual.
1:2.1
The heating system must comply with the latest editions of British Standard 5410 and The Building Regulations.
Please note: It is essential in the interest of the Boiler efficiency and reliable performance that once the Boiler has been installed it is first commissioned by a competent and preferably an O.F.T.E.C.* registered engineer. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the Boiler is commissioned.
If an engineer is not known, Boulter Boilers will be pleased to provide details of commissioning and servicing engineers from their register.
*The Oil Firing Technical Association for the Petroleum Industry - Banstead, Surrey 01737
373311.
◆ If it is known or suspected that a fault exists on the Boiler, it MUST NOT be used until the fault has been corrected by a competent engineer (see Failure to Start).
◆ It is essential that the instructions in this booklet are strictly followed for safe and economic operation of the Boiler. Failure to observe these instructions may invalidate your right to free breakdown cover during the guarantee period.
We recommend that you keep these instructions in a place near your appliance for easy reference.
1:2.2 Air Supply to Boiler ­Conventional Flue
Where your Boiler is used on an open conventional flue system, a permanent air supply is required for combustion. Clearances provided at the sides and rear of the appliance for air entry must be kept free of obstruction. For further explanation please refer to section 4.6 of this installation manual.
Your Eco Boiler should be connected to an electrical supply complying with the Electrical Wiring Regulations (BS7671): as well as an oil supply complying with BS5410 Pt.1; and an appropriate flue system.
◆ ALWAYS SWITCH OFF THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY before removing any of the covers for cleaning.
◆ If any part of the Boiler or its flue is modified, then the guarantee/warranty will be invalidated.

1:5 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1:5.1 BOILER CONTROL THERMOSTAT
The Boiler Control Thermostat is also the ON/OFF switch for the Boiler. To Switch the Boiler off, turn the Thermostat to the ‘OFF’ position and isolate at the mains isolating switch.
The Boiler Control Thermostat also controls the water temperature within the Boiler.
The recommended Control Thermostat settings are as follows:
WINTER HEATING & HOT WATER No. 4 SUMMER HOT WATER ONLY No. 2 The Boiler Control Thermostat automatically
switches the Burner ON and OFF to maintain the selected temperature. The Burner is lit by an automatic ignition system and therefore there is no pilot flame.
The Boiler should not be operated below 60°C as this will cause corrosion which will reduce the life of the Boiler (Summer position).
1:5.2 BOILER OVERHEAT/LIMIT THERMOSTAT
The Boiler is fitted with a safety overheat/limit thermostat. This will interrupt the power supply to the Boiler and shut it down completely in the unlikely event of overheating.
Should this occur, wait for the Boiler to cool, and then reset the thermostat by pressing the limit thermostat reset button located at the rear of the Control Panel.
If this problem still persists, turn off the Boiler and consult your installer.
BOULTER BOILERS Eco-System PAGE 3
Page 6
1:5.4 LOCKOUT INDICATOR
In the unlikely event of a Burner malfunction, it will automatically shutdown, and the red lockout indicator on the Control Panel will be lit.
To restart the Burner, wait for a period of at least 45 seconds. Remove the front door panel (as illustrated) and press the lockout reset button located on the front of the Burner (see fig 2). If the Burner immediately goes to lockout again, wait three minutes and then repeat the procedure, once more only, by pressing the reset button again.
If this problem still persists, turn off the Boiler and consult your engineer.
1:5.5 STARTING THE BOILER
1. Ensure that all external controls, e.g. programmer, timer, room thermostat etc., are turned on and calling for heat.
2. Make sure the Boiler Control Thermostat is set within the recommended range 2 to 4 and that the mains electricity and oil are turned on.
1:5.6 SWITCHING THE BOILER OFF ­TEMPORARILY
The Boiler may be stopped by turning the boiler control thermostat to the OFF position on the standard Control Panel, or the programme switch to the OFF position on the optional programmer. Alternatively, the Boiler may be stopped by:
1. Turning off the mains switch controlling the Boiler, or
2. Turning the programmer (if fitted to the heating
system) to its off position.
1:5.7 SHUTTING OFF FOR THE SUMMER
If the Boiler is to be shut off for the summer, it is advisable to have it thoroughly serviced. Thorough cleaning will minimise corrosion during the idle period. Remember, when the Boiler is required, to ensure that the oil supply is open before switching on.
1:5.8 SEALED SYSTEM CENTRAL HEATING
It is important that the correct operating system pressure is maintained. Your Installer should give guidance on this.
1:5.9 FROST PROTECTION
If there is any danger that your Boiler may freeze up during severe weather conditions, it is recommended that you consult your installer who will be able to advise you on an appropriate course of action, either by installing a frost thermostat or the addition of system anti-freeze.
1:5.10 OIL DELIVERY
Where possible, it is advisable to temporarily switch the Boiler off when your oil supply is being replenished. This is to allow any sediment to settle and not be drawn into the Boiler. If not this could result in an inconvenient break down.
We advise that you keep your Boiler off for one hour after the oil is delivered to your tank. Please ask your supplier, or the driver to notify you before the oil is discharged.
1:5.11 MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
1:5.11.1 MAINTENANCE
For normal cleaning of the outside casing, simply wipe with a dry cloth. To remove stubborn marks and stains, wipe with a damp cloth and finish off with a dry cloth. DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials.
The Boiler must be serviced at regular intervals by a qualified service engineer. Failure to have the Boiler serviced at the recommended intervals will

FRONT
DOOR
LOCKOUT
RESET
Page 7
invalidate the guarantee/warranty. Using Kerosine Class C2 fuel, the Boiler should be
serviced at twelve monthly intervals to ensure that the efficiency and performance of your boiler is maintained.
Please also note that on conventional flue models, it is possible for the air intake at the rear of the Boiler casing to become blocked with household debris.This air intake must remain clear at all times and so it is advisable to inspect and clean this area regularly. Please refer to section 1:2.2 in this booklet.
Flue Terminal Pluming
Due to the high efficiency of the Eco range white water vapour from the flue discharge - called pluming may be observed from time to time under certain weather conditions. This is perfectly normal and should be no cause for concern.
1:5.11.2 FAILURE TO START
If the Burner fails to start, adopt the following procedure:
1. Check that there is oil in the tank and that the supply valve is open.
2. Check the programmer or time switch to ensure that it is operating and set to the correct time to be “ON”.
3. Check that the Boiler Control Thermostat is set high enough to be “ON” or calling for heat.
4. Check whether the limit thermostat has tripped. Press the reset button once the temperature has dropped sufficiently.
5. Check whether the burner has gone to lockout and the indicator lamp on the control box is lit.
Press the reset button on the Control box, when released, the lights will go out and the Burner will again attempt to start. If the Burner does not run and again goes to lockout with red indicators glowing:
◆ Wait three minutes.
◆ Repeat the procedure by pressing the button.
◆ Failure to start on the second attempt indicates
a fault requiring attention.
◆ Switch off the mains supply and call your service engineer.

1. There are two columns in the table for combustion gas temperature:­FLUE EXIT temperature, and BOILER TEST POINT temperature.
2. Where possible CO2, smoke and flue gas temperatures should be sampled from the FLUE EXIT (i.e. external balanced flue discharge, or from the test point provided in the conventional flue adaptor)
3. These figures may be used to calculate combustion efficiency.
4. Alternatively (where the forgoing is impractical such as vertical BF) gases can be sampled at the BOILER TEST POINT inside the casing. Because the gas temperatures at this point are significantly higher it should not be used to calculate or measure efficiency.
5. If the BOILER TEST POINT temperature agrees with the data in Table 3:6.1, then use the appropriate FLUE EXIT temperature from the table to calculate the combustion efficiency.
6. On conventional flue only - flue draught should be measured at the flue exit test point.

4:1 STANDARDS & REGULATIONS
The installation of the Boiler must comply with the latest edition of :
BS 5410 Oil Installations
Pt 1 up to 44kW;
Pt 2 and over 44kW BS 5449 Forced circulation hot water central heating systems for domestic premises. BS 4543 Pt. 1 & 3 Factory made insulated
chimneys.
BS 7593 Code of practice for the treatment of
water in domestic hot water central heating systems.
BS 7671 (1992) Electrical Wiring Regulations.
BUILDING REGULATIONS.
Part J&L England and Wales
Part F Section III Scotland
Part L Northern Ireland
The Control of Pollution (Oil) Regulations
Oil boilers should be installed in accordance with good practice as recommended by OFTEC (Ref. 2:3 Commissioning page 6).
4:2 THE HEATING SYSTEM
This should be installed in accordance with current good practice as advised by HVCA. It is not the purpose of the manual, nor is it possible, to adequately deal with the subject in this manual.
When designing and installing the controls of the heating system, it must be remembered that if the control system is such that the water circulation through the boiler can be totally or substantially reduced whilst the oil burner can still fire, the water in the boiler will reach very high or boiling temperature before the boiler thermostat can sense it and switch off the Burner.
If this condition is likely wire the controls so that the electrical supply to the burner is switched off simultaneously with the stopping of circulating pumps or the closing of motorised valves.
On existing heating systems where a Boiler is replaced, ensure that the system is chemically cleaned.
The system should contain clean water and be free from leaks. Suitable inhibitors against limescale and corrosion should be added to the system. Refer to BS 7593.
Kettling and system noises can be avoided by suitable pre-treatment (i.e. Chemical Cleaning) at the onset.This is essential when fitting a new boiler to an existing system.
4:3 SITING & POSITIONING
The noise level from Eco boilers is quite low and kitchen installations have not given rise to complaints. Consideration must be given however, to the following points.
1. Noise may be accentuated by the installation in small rooms or recesses with hard or hollow stud wall surfaces. Due consideration to the siting of boilers should be given.
Further advice from BOULTER BOILERS should be sought where any doubt exists.
2. Some individuals may be particularly sensitive to even low noise levels and this should be discussed before installation.
3. The type of chimney, position relative to the boiler and whether a draught stabiliser is to be fitted may affect sound level in the room.
4. The 12/19 & 19/26 Boiler models are serviced from the front. A space of 450mm (18”) in front should be available.
4:4 THE HEARTH
The Eco boilers have a Hearth Temperature of less than 85°C. The boiler requires a level hearth on which to stand which should comply with the Building Regulations.
If the Boiler is to stand on a floor made of combustible material then protection between the Boiler and the floor should be provided by means of non combustible material.
Consideration should be given to the Weight of the Boiler and the Building Regulations regarding floor loading.
The filled Boiler weight can be found in 3:5.
Advice should be sought from your local Building Control Office if there are any doubts regarding the floor supporting the Boiler.
Page 13
BOULTER BOILERS Eco-System PAGE 11
4:5 THE CHIMNEY - (FLUE Ø 4” OR 5”)
CONVENTIONAL CHIMNEY INSTALLATION ONLY.
VERY IMPORTANT All Eco boilers are supplied in Balanced Flue
Form. To connect either size of boiler to a
conventional chimney you must use The Conventional Flue adaptor FC4CF.
This includes all parts necessary to make the connection to the boiler. A test point is also provided for ease of installation and commissioning. Secure the air duct in the clip provided.
The use of this adaptor is essential for safe performance and is a condition of the guarantee that this must be fitted.
The boiler requires a minimum stable draught of
0.1 mbar (0.04w.g.). If the chimney exceeds 6m (20 feet) in length, it
may produce a draught exceeding 0.37 mbar (0.15” w.g.) and a draught stabiliser should be fitted.
The chimney should comply with the latest edition of the Building Regulations and BS 5410: Part 1.
Factory built chimneys must comply with the Building Regulations and BS 4543 Parts 1 and 3.
Compliance with the Building Regulations does not indicate that the chimney is satisfactory in respect of draught conditions, or is positioned so that ‘down draughts’ will not occur.
Special pots and cowls which might restrict the flow
of gases must not be fitted and should be removed. A brick chimney must be fitted with a suitable
stainless steel liner. Insulation between the liner and an exposed chimney may be necessary to avoid condensation.
A flexible liner should be the same diameter as the Flue Offtake size of the boiler - 4”(100mm) or 5” (125mm). (see page 8)
The Flue pipe, connecting the boiler to the chimney adaptor should be the same diameter as the Boiler Flue Offtake and should not be more than 1.8m (6’-0”) long. Flue Pipes when fitted should satisfy or be ‘deemed to satisfy’ the Building Regulations.
Flue pipe bends - 90° bends must not be used ­use 135° bends. Bends with soot doors should be used where necessary
FOR BALANCED FLUE INSTALLATIONS SEE SECTION 6.
4:6 AIR SUPPLY
CONVENTIONAL CHIMNEY INSTALLATION ONLY A permanent adequate supply of air is required for
combustion and correct operation of a draught stabiliser, if fitted.
This air enters the Boiler through the back panel. At least 15mm clearance is required at the rear of all boilers.
When the boiler is situated in a confined space or chamber a permanent adequate supply of air is required for ventilation to prevent over heating.
4:6.1 Opening Sizes
The clear opening required for combustion only should be based on a requirement of 550mm
2
/kW,
(or 1in
2
per 4000 Btu/h) above 5kW
When a draught stabiliser is fitted to the flue pipe or chimney in the room in which the boiler is situated the clear air intake should be 1100mm
2
/kW.
When the boiler is situated in a confined space with Combustion or Ventilation air from outside - Allow 550mm
2
/kW at low level and in addition
550mm
2
/kW at high level;
When Combustion and Ventilation air is taken from a heated adjoining space the allowance should be 1650mm
2
/kW at low level and in addition
1100mm
2
/kW at high level. Ensure that the heated adjoining space itself has an adequate supply of air.
When the Boiler is installed in a basement or low level boiler house where air can enter only from high level, the incoming air supply for Combustion and Ventilation should be ducted to low level. A high level outlet should be provided for ventilation.

4:7 OIL STORAGE
4:7.1 Oil Tank
Consideration to the access by fuel delivery lorries should be given when positioning the oil tank.
Tank positioning should be in accordance with BS 5410 Part 1 and OFTEC Technical Book 3.
In the interest of most economical deliveries the Oil Tank should be of 3,000 litres (600 gallons) capacity.
It should be complete with the following:
1. Sludge Cock - on steel tanks.
2. Outlet Valve.
3. Contents Indicator.
4. Screw fill connection and independent vent. The Fill and Vent should be suitably capped to prevent ingress of water or fitted with return bends.
4:7.2 Steel Tanks
Tanks should be mounted on suitable supports, if these are of brick or blocks, a damp proof membrane should be inserted between the tank and its supports.
Tanks should slope 20mm per 1m of length downwards from the Oil Outlet to the Sludge Cock situated at the opposite end.
4:7.3 Plastic Oil Tanks
Tanks made from plastic are now available. These should be UV stabilised for protection against sunlight, and coloured green. Plastic tanks do not need to stand on piers, but should be supported across the entire base area, ideally on 50mm thick garden slabs or a concrete base. As there is only one tapped outlet they are more suited to single pipe feed as gravity supply or with a Boulter 3K Oil Loop Deaerator where suction lift is required. (Part No. BS 03060)
4:8 OIL SUPPLY
The oil entry holes in the boiler casing are shown in the diagram in Section 3:5 of this manual. Flexible Hoses supplied with the Boiler MUST NOT pass through these holes.
All joints in the Oil Lines must be oil tight and the Oil Line should be flushed clean before connecting to the burner.
Note that no soldered joints are permissible in the oil line.
4:8.1 Oil Filter
An Oil Filter is supplied with the Boiler.
Connections are 1/4 BSP Female, see fig. 4:8c.
It is essential for reliable operation that the Oil Filter is fitted in the Oil Pipe supplying Oil from the Tank to the Burner. It should be fitted as close to the Boiler as practicable, but NOT inside the Boiler casing.
It is a condition of the guarantees that the Filter is fitted correctly.
4:8.2 Fire Check Valve (Not Supplied)
A Remote acting FIRE VALVE* must be fitted in the suction line at the time of installation - see BS 5410: Part 1.
The valve must be fitted external to the Boiler, preferably at point where the Oil Pipe enters the building. The sensor should be located above the Burner in the clip provided, see figs. 4:8b, 4:8d & 4:8f.
The entry point for the Fire Valve Sensor should be through any of the 20mm ET knockouts located at the top of the rear casing, or side panels.
To prevent damage to the capillary always pass the sensor through the blind grommet (supplied), it will be necessary to cut across the diaphragm.
*Remote Acting Fire Valves are available from Boulter, through your merchant or installer e.g.

Ensure that Valves are NOT fitted in the Return Line. The Return Line must be unobstructed at all times.
Ensure that the Burner Oil Pump is correctly set for ‘two Pipe’ operation. (See 4:9.1)
4:8.5 Deaerator Oil Pipe System
Fig. 4:8f An alternative two pipe arrangement can be
achieved using a 3K-Oil Loop Deaerator which removes the air from the oil feed on a single pipe lift. The Burner Pump is piped to the Deaerator, which should be positioned close to the burner, but NOT inside the Boiler Case. A Non-Return Valve
is not required in the return line.
The advantage of this system is gained where a two pipe run from the oil supply tank is long or difficult to achieve.
Boulter 3K Deaerators are available as an optional extra from your merchant (Part No. BS 03060).
4:8.6 Water Separator Oil Filter
For changeover applications, the use of a Water Separator Oil Filter, available from BOULTER BOILERS is recommended (BS03052).
4:8.7 Flexible Oil Pipes

5:1 BALANCED FLUE BOILERS
A range of Balanced Flue Kits are available as optional extras.
Balanced Flues permit considerable choice of siting of the Boiler. Boilers may be installed in situations where no chimney exists, where the chimney is unsatisfactory or in outhouses.
It is important that care is exercised in choosing a suitable location for the Boiler and Flues. It is to be expected that with the help of this manual and the application of caring engineering experience and common sense unreasonable liberties will not be taken.
It is a mandatory requirement that:-
1. The terminals of balanced flues which can be touched are to be fitted with a guard.
Any proposed installation which deviates from the details provided or gives rise to any doubt should be referred to BOULTER BOILERS LTD. who will be pleased to consider and discuss it.
5:1.1 Balanced Flue Types
Three types are available
1. Low Level Horizontal - Rear & Side
- Discharge L/R
2. High Level Horizontal - Rear & Side
- Discharge L/R
3. Vertical (Flat or Pitched Roof) Only Kerosine fuel may be used when the Low
level Horizontal flues are installed.
5:2 HORIZONTAL BALANCED FLUES
The Terminals of Horizontal Balanced Flues should be installed on a plain surface of wall preferably not less than 900mm from internal corners of the building and away from any recesses and any projections on the wall face that could affect wind flow across it.
Listed are the general restrictions as to the positioning of Horizontal Balanced Flue Terminals. Refer to Fig 5:4a
1. Positions should be avoided where the exhaust of combustion products could cause nuisance.
2. Terminals must be situated more than 600mm distance from any opening in the building.
3. Avoid close proximity to internal corners where products of combustion may not freely disperse and may enter the air intake to the boiler.
4. Avoid positions such as narrow passageways, especially with a closed end, where easy dispersion could be adversely affected.
5. Avoid positions where the terminal may be discharging close to and in the direction of a near
neighbouring dwelling or exhausting immediately over adjoining property.
6. Avoid positioning immediately under openable windows.
7. Care should be taken to ensure that there is clearance between the outer surface of the flue and any combustible material.
8. Positioning the Flue terminal within a CAR PORT is not recommended.
5:3 VERTICAL BALANCED FLUES
Vertical Balanced Flues enables boilers to be installed in single storey outhouses or utility rooms where it may not be convenient for it to be sited near an outer wall. It may also be employed to exhaust vertically to avoid nearby windows or doors.
Vertical Balanced Flues may also be preferred in cases where close proximity to adjoining houses or property dictates minimum exhaust noises.
5:3.1 Positioning of Vertical Flues
Listed are general restrictions as to the positioning of Vertical Balanced Flues. Refer to Fig. 5:4a.
1. Avoid positions where Vertical Flues will exhaust adjacent to a higher wall.The minimum distance for operation from a higher vertical wall must be 600mm.
2. Ensure Vertical Flues do not exhaust below the level of any openable window less than 2300mm horizontally from the terminal (see BS 5410:1).
3. Care should be taken to ensure that there is clearance between the outer surface of the flue and any combustible material.
Page 21
BOULTER BOILERS Eco-System PAGE 19
5:4 POSITIONING THE BOILER
Read Sections 5:2 & 5:3 Some combustion noise occurs at the Exhaust Terminal of Balanced Flues and care should be exercised
to ensure that the position of the exhaust is not near doors or opening windows of the house it serves, or doors or windows of any neighbouring house. See Fig. 5:4a.

*Where the terminal is within 1m of any plastic material, such material should be shielded from the effects of the combustion products of the flues
NOTE:- Whilst the dimensions in BS 5410 are shown in the table, it is stressed that possible variances
in local site conditions may not always be obvious and that if in any doubt the dimensions in brackets
should be observed.
BOULTER BOILERS would be pleased to advise on any difficult positioning
RECOMMENDED FLUE TERMINAL POSITION
Terminals should be so positioned as to avoid products of combustion entering opening into buildings or other flues or vents.
Page 22
BOULTER BOILERS Eco-System PAGE 20
5:5 TERMINAL GUARDS
When the terminal is positioned where there is the possibility of accidental contact by persons, or of damage to the terminal, an approved guard is necessary (Boulter Code FL26160).
Generally, exhaust 2 metres above ground level alleviates the necessity for a guard.
A suitable guard is available from BOULTER BOILERS as shown below.
5:6 HORIZONTAL FLUE TERMINAL
The Terminal for Horizontal Balanced Flue is secured to the wall by means of four screws. The indexing plate should have its four edges siliconed to the outside wall to provide a weather seal.
5:7 BLANKING PLATES
The Boiler is supplied in Balanced Flue form. With 2 full side/rear Blanking plate and one top blanking plate.
The Blanking plates should be fitted to prevent access to hot surfaces and to maintain the efficiency of the boiler.

6:1 NOTES ON INSTALLATION
LOW LEVEL AND HIGH LEVEL BALANCED FLUES
1. The Terminal must be slightly angled down to ensure correct operation of the boiler. Due to the efficiency levels of Eco - System pluming from the terminals may occur under certain conditions. Any condensation may be acidic due to the fuel characteristics and it is advisable not to install the flue in any position where the condensation could cause damage to paint surfaces etc.
2. The Terminal index plate should be sealed to the external wall using silicon sealant or other impervious material to prevent water ingress.
3. Ensure that the outlet of the Terminal points downward (TOP upper-most and Boulter correct way up).
4. Ensure that the boiler to offtake gasket is fitted (foil face upwards) and the clamp is made with four nuts and washers securely fixed.
5. Ensure that the ‘Sealing Rings’ are fitted in the correct groove. Use a mild detergent as a lubricant to ease assembly.
6. The Flue is telescopic and no cutting
of the flue
pipes is necessary.
7. 500mm and 1000mm flue extension kits are available. Do not exceed the maximum flue lengths stated in this manual.
8. The flexible air duct is an integral part of the appliance and must be used on all balanced flue kits. Ensure that it is not damaged and that either end is connected via the jubilee clip provided to ensure correct boiler operation.

6:4 VERTICAL FLUE INSTALLATIONS
6:4.1 Notes on installation
Site conditions will dictate the best method of assembling the vertical balanced flue.
Illustrations fig 6:4a & b show typical flat roof installations and illustrations fig 6:4c & d show typical pitched roof installations.
Refer to 6:6 for details of extensions required. The flue system is telescopic and the extensions fit between the vertical offtake spigot and the flue terminal.
Ensure at least 50mm overlap. Remove the rear top casing panel and fit the
vertical offtake spigot to the boiler using the four nuts and washers - sandwiching the gasket supplied between the boiler and spigot.
Where a flue system passes through a joist frame it is essential that the integrity of the ceiling fire barrier is retained. The optional extras - joist sleeve and support plate are recommended.
Alternatively this can be achieved by following the Building Regulations.
Joints in the flue must not be situated within the joist space.
Joints must be a minimum of 150mm below ceiling height.
Flue parts are assembled by sliding them together. The seals must be lubricated with the mild detergent supplied to assist fitting and sliding of parts. When flue parts have been set the desired length they should be drilled and self tapping screws used to fix them.
When preparing the ceiling/roof for the flue above the boiler it is advised to place the boiler in position, check locations of flow and return connections, oil supplies and general clearances. When satisfied mark the ceiling for cutting appropriate hole/s. Cover or move the boiler during the ceiling/roof preparation. Holes should be cut close to the size of the flue, say 10mm clearance.
A ceiling trim is provided which is slid onto the extensions during assembly and installation and is screwed to the ceiling. When the installation of flue extensions is complete finish off flashing, fit the cravat and seal between the cravat and flue with a suitable weather proof sealant. Slide on the terminal and secure with screws.
Using the clips provided connect the flexible air duct to the burner spigot and the other end to the flue offtake spigot.

7:1 COMMISSIONING
It is essential in the interest of boiler efficiency and reliable performance that once the boiler has been installed it is first commissioned by a competent engineer, preferably an OFTEC commissioning engineer.
If an engineer is not known Boulter Boilers will be pleased to provide details of commissioning and servicing engineers from their register.
Commissioning must be carried out at the point of first firing.
Incorrect emissions can cause premature fouling of the flue ways.
7:2 RESPONSIBILITY
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the boiler is properly commissioned. It is essential that the commissioning procedures detailed in this manual are carried out by a qualified engineer using recognised test equipment.
It is recommended that the relevant section of BS 5410: Part 1: latest edition is carefully read.
7:3 REPORTING
It is recommended that you use a report sheet and check list. Make comments on the report where necessary, and give a copy to whoever has engaged your services, and retain and file your own copy. A suggested layout is shown over.
It is the responsibility of the installer
to ensure that the boiler is
commissioned by a competent engineer,
preferably an OFTEC* Registered

❐ Is the flue adequately sized for the appliance rating?
❐ Is the flue free of any obstruction? ❐ Has the chimney been adequately lined and
insulated? NOTE:- Lining the flue and back filling will help
prevent condensate problems
BALANCED FLUE APPLIANCES
❐ Is the correct flue kit fitted? ❐ Is the Flue off take correctly secured to the
boiler by four nuts and washers. Is the gasket provided fitted correctly?
❐ Has the rear Air Entry Plate been fitted with Blanking Plates where necessary?
❐ Can leakage from flues tubes or air ducts occur? All seals fitted correctly?
❐ Is the sampling test point (on high level or vertical kits) resealed?
VENTILATION
CONVENTIONAL FLUED BOILERS ❐ Is the ventilation opening from the outside to
the boiler room adequate? ❐ Is there sufficient clearance for air to enter the
Boiler at the rear of appliance? ❐ Will any ventilation fans prevent adequate
supply of combustion air? ❐ Is the CF adaptor fitted correctly to the boiler
with all nuts and gaskets? ❐ Is the sampling test point resealed?
ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY
❐ Is the electrical supply to the appliance appropriate?
❐ Are the electrical input connections to the control panel correct?
❐ Is the supply fuse correct? ❐ Does the wiring comply with the latest IEE
regulations? ❐ Does the power supply cable enter the casing

8:1 MAINTENANCE
A boiler fired with Class C Oil should only require attentions once each year.
8:1.1 General Inspection
With the Boiler operating, inspect for signs of unsatisfactory operation, i.e. leakage of combustion products, leakage of oil, or unusual noises from the pump or motor.
Check the commissioning list if it is your attendance to the appliance. Is there a reason why the Boiler might fail after you leave?
It is useful to measure the combustion date, i.e. CO2, Smoke No. and flue gas temperature, and a check on the oil pressure, prior to carrying out maintenance work.
8:1.2 Maintenance Procedure Switch off electrical supply at the MAINS
ISOLATING SWITCH.
OIL TANK De-sludge oil tank (if necessary), and draw of any
accumulated water. Check the correct grade of oil is being used. FILTERS Inspect and clean all oil filters. Change paper
elements for new. BURNER Turn off the oil cock and disconnect the flexible oil
hose from the oil cock. Remove burner and clean thoroughly, the burner
draught tube, the electrodes and generally the head assembly. CHANGE the nozzle for one with the specified make, oil rate, spray pattern and angle.
Inspect the ignition electrodes for crazing in the porcelain. Replace if there are signs of deterioration.
A dirty fan impeller can impair the performance of a burner, inspect and clean if necessary.
Inspect photocell, if badly discoloured, change it. Inspect the flexible oil hose for leaks or
discolouration. Use only replacement flexible oil hoses that are detailed in the spare parts section of this manual.
BOILER The Boilers are serviced from the front. Remove flue inspection cover/s, and baffles, and
clean all heat transfer surfaces and baffles. Replace any damaged or unserviceable parts with manufacturers proprietary parts.
Inspect flue and air ducts for deterioration of seals, and repair if necessary. Re-lubricate with a mild detergent when refitting.
Refit parts and inspect seals etc. which should be replaced if required.
COMBUSTION TESTS Fit combined air bleed manifold and 0-300psi (0-20
bar) pressure gauge to the appropriate oil pump connection, and replace burner.
Switch on the electric supply to the boiler. When the burner motor starts, on one pipe
systems, it may be necessary to temporarily open the air bleed screw on the test manifold.
Once the burner is firing check and if necessary adjust the oil pressure.
Carry out combustion checks by inserting probes into sampling points provided or at the flue outlet.
Check the Smoke No., if clean wait 10 minutes and measure CO
2.
Adjust the air shutter (see fig 8.2a), if necessary, open to reduce CO
2, close to increase CO2.
If the air shutter is adjusted, re-check the Smoke No.
Check the flue gas temperature. The figures should agree with data in Boiler
Commissioning Data, Section 3. FINAL CHECKS Check lockout function, either remove photocell
and cover it, or remove solenoid coil, to simulate flame failure. Reinstate components and press lockout reset button.
Check that the control thermostat is operating when the set temperature is reached.
Check the operation of the limit thermostat if possible.
Reset Limit thermostat once appliance temperature has dropped sufficiently.
Complete a maintenance report and give the customer a copy, retaining a copy for your records.

1:4 SEALED SYSTEM COMPONENTS
1. Double Check Valve
Fitted to Cold Fill to prevent ‘back feed’ when Filling Loop is connected.
2. Filling Loop
A flexible hose which should ONLY be connected when filling or topping up the system.
THE FILLING LOOP HOSE MUST BE DISCONNECTED AND MAY BE LEFT HANGING FROM ONE OF THE FITTINGS WHEN NOT IN USE.
3. Mains Water Shut Off Valve
Supplied to isolate mains supply.
4. Circulating Pump
The pump is fitted to the Flow Pipe as a circulating pump for the Heating System.
5. Automatic Air Vent
The Vent automatically vents air from the system.
The bleed screw should be loosened one turn.
Routine venting of radiators is still advised.
6. Pressure Gauge
The Gauge (mounted behind the front door) is provided as a visual indication of the water pressure within the system.
When the system is initially filled (cold) and all radiators full and vented, the Pressure Gauge will show the Cold Fill Pressure. Set the Red pointer to this setting.
Cold Fill Pressure ✎
A pressure below the set Cold Fill Pressure indicates the system requires “topping up”.
7. Pressure Relief Valve
(fitted inside casing) This can be fitted to one of the top sockets
of the Boiler. The remaining top socket must be plugged.
8. Tundish
Supplied to provide a visual indication of water flowing from the Relief Pressure Valve (7). Refer to 2:3.
It is a requirement of G3 of the Building Regulations that the Tundish is fitted in a safe position visible to the householder.
9. Expansion Vessel
The Expansion Vessel is suitable for systems with a static head of up to 5 metres (16.5ft) i.e. the vertical distance between expansion vessel and highest point of system, usually the top of bedroom radiators. If the static head is greater than 5 metres, then the charge in the vessel must be increased to equal this higher static pressure. The pressure can be increased if required by simply pumping up the vessel with a standard type pump and checking the pressure with a tyre gauge with the system at zero pressure. A schraider type valve is provided on the vessel for this purpose (see note below). During air charge, leave the PRV open.
NOTE: The air charge should not exceed a pressure of 1.5 bar (22 p.s.i.)

THE FILLING LOOP MUST BE DISCONNECTED WHEN NOT IN USE.
10. Set the red pointer of the Pressure Gauge to the Cold Fill pressure. Refer to 1:4.6.
1. Check that the black screw on the Automatic Air Vent is loosened 1 turn.
2. Check spare sockets in Boiler have been plugged.
3. Check drain cock/s are off.
4. Connect the Filling Loop Hose from the incoming mains supply to the Double Check Valve and open the Double Check Valve fully.
5. Open the Mains Isolating Valve partway to fill the system SLOWLY.
6. Flush system thoroughly and refill.
7. Vent radiator and any other manual Air Release Vents.

2:5 CONTROL PANEL
2:6 FILLING THE SYSTEM
IMPORTANT
Do not allow water in Filling Loop to
spill over the Burner.
FIG. 2:5 Control Panel
BOULTER BOILERS Eco-System PAGE 53
Page 56
During routine servicing, the water should be “topped up” if necessary using the Filling Loop when the system is cold. Refer to 2:6 Filling the System.
In addition to the General Boiler Maintenance Manual, the following items should be checked on an annual basis at the very least.
1. System Pressure
The System Pressure should be checked periodically and increased as necessary using the Filling Loop or other approved method.
Filling should be carried out on a cold system so that the pressure can be increased to the original cold fill design pressure (indicated by the red pointer on the system Pressure Gauge).
The Pressure Gauge should be watched carefully during filling and the Mains Isolating Valve opened slowly.
2. System Draining
The Boiler as well as the system, is under pressure and before disconnecting any components, the system pressure must be reduced. It is recommended that a suitable drain be situated in one of the Boilers’ lower sockets to facilitate this.
After replacing the relevant parts refill the system as described in Section 2:6.
3. Pressure Relief Valve
This should be checked for operation during annual servicing by increasing the system pressure outlined in Section 2:7.
4. Expansion Vessel Pressure
Should be checked to be in accordance with the cold design pressure of the system.
This is checked by allowing the water pressure to increase until the valve operates - this should be between 2.7 and 3.3 bar.
Reduce the system pressure to achieve the initial cold fill pressure.
When the system water is heated, the pressure will rise above the Cold Fill setting. If the pressure reaches 2.5 bar when the Boiler is operated at its highest temperature with all radiators in circulation, then an additional expansion vessel must be fitted in the system. Refer to Section 1 :4.9 and BS 7074 Part 1 for information on sizing of the additional expansion vessel.
The design of the Sealed System Boiler enables the Pressure Vessel to be lifted and laid on the floor whilst still connected to the Boiler, enabling full access to the Burner and Heat Exchanger.
Any work top must be removable for service access to system components beneath the top casing lid.

5:1 PUMP PERFORMANCE
Pump Performance on Eco Sealed System Boilers
The graphs below show the pump performance curves as defined by the pump manufacturer.
1. Set the speed selector switch to maximum (Speed 111) and switch on the electricity supply and start the heating system.
2. Turn the switch to minimum (Speed 1) and if after a suitable time all the radiators are not hot, increase the speed of the pump by switching to Speed 11. Repeat this process until adequate circulation is achieved.
Remember, if the speed setting is too high, noise may be caused in the system and the power consumption will be unnecessarily high.
