General Information
General Note
This boiler is designed for use as part of a sealed water central heating system with fully pumped circulation. The pump, expansion vessel and associated safety devices are all fitted within the boiler.
Once the controls are set the boiler operates automatically.
Please read these instructions and follow them carefully for the correct installation and economical use of your boiler.
Water Treatment
In the case of an existing installation, it is ESSENTIAL that prior to installing the new boiler the system is thoroughly flushed. For optimum performance after installation of a new system, the boiler and its associated central heating system should also be flushed. Flushing should be carried out in accordance with BS7593: 1992 using a cleanser such as Sentinel X300 or X400, Fernox restorer or Salamander corrosion guard cleaner.
For long-term corrosion protection, after flushing, an inhibitor suitable for stainless steel exchangers should be used, refer to the current issue of BS 5449 and BS 7593 on the use of inhibitors in central heating systems. Examples are Sentinel X100 Fernox protector or Salamander corrosion guard inhibitor.
Compartment or Cupboard Installations
If the boiler is fitted into a compartment or cupboard it does not require ventilation openings.
Do not use the compartment or cupboard for storage.
Condensate Drain
The condensate drain, see section 8.2, must not be modified or blocked.
Pluming from flue terminal
Like all condensing boilers this appliance will produce a plume of condensation from the flue terminal in cool weather. This is due to the high efficiency and hence low flue gas temperature of the boiler. It is normal and not a fault indication.
Cleaning
The boiler casing can be cleaned using a mild liquid detergent with a damp cloth, then a dry cloth to polish.
Do not use any form of abrasive or solvent cleaner as you may damage the paintwork.
Electrical Supply
If the mains electricity and gas are to be turned off for any long periods during severe weather, it is recommended that the whole system, including the boiler, should be drained to avoid the risk of freezing. Make sure that, if fitted, the immersion heater in the cylinder is switched off.
NOTE: If you have a sealed water system contact your installation/servicing company as draining, refilling and pressurising MUST be carried out by a competent person.
Clearances
If fixtures are positioned close to the boiler, space must be left as shown in section 2. Enough space must also be left in front of the boiler to allow for servicing.

3.4 Terminal Position
The minimum acceptable siting dimensions for the terminal from obstructions, other terminals and ventilation openings are shown in diagram 3.5. For Ireland the minimum distances for flue terminal positioning must be those detailed in I.S.813 "Domestic Gas Installations".
The terminal must be exposed to the external air, allowing free passage of air across it at all times.
Being a condensing boiler some pluming may occur from the flue outlet. This should be taken into consideration when selecting the position for the terminal.
H
* and J* See diagram 3.5 . These dimensions comply with
the building regulations, but they may need to be increased to avoid wall staining and nuisance from pluming depending on site conditions.
Increased siting flexibility can be achieved by using the Glow­worm Plume Management Kit, A2044000 (black) or A2044100 (white).
NOTE: If necessary it is permitted to increase the terminal protrusion through the outside wall to greater than the minimum dimension of 87mm but no more than 600mm, see diagram 1.1.
Carports or similar extensions of a roof only, or a roof and one wall, require special consideration with respect to any openings, doors, vents or windows under the roof. Care is required to protect the roof if made of plastic sheeting. If the carport comprises of a roof and two or more walls, seek advice from the local gas supply company before installing the boiler.
3.5 Terminal Guard
A terminal guard is required if persons could come into contact with the terminal or the terminal could be subject to damage.
If a terminal guard is required, it must be positioned to provide minimum of 50mm clearance from any part of the terminal and be central over the terminal.
The guard should be similar to that shown in diagram 3.6.
A suitable guard is manufactured by: -

4 Heating System
4.1 General
The boiler is for use only with sealed central heating systems.
The safety valve is an integral part of the boiler and it cannot be adjusted.
The digital readout on the controls fascia indicates the system pressure when there is no central heating demand.
The circulation pump is integral with the boiler.
4.2 Expansion Vessel
The boiler has an integral expansion vessel with a capacity of 8 litres (1.76 gallons), with a charge pressure of 0.5bar.
NOTE: The expansion vessel volume depends on the total water system volume and the initial system design pressure. Guidance on vessel sizing is also given in the current issue of BS5449 and BS7074 Part 1, for IE refer to the current edition of I.S.813 "Domestic Gas Installations".
Table 3. Flow Rate
MODEL MINIMUM FLOW RATE
24 cxi 774 litres/hr.
30 cxi 1032 litres/hr.
38 cxi 1289 litres/hr.
This is equal to 20OC differential at maximum heat input.
9168
4.3 Flow Rate
If it is necessary to alter the flow rate, the system can be fitted with a lockable balancing valve in the main flow or return pipes shown as valve "A" in diagram 4.1. The flow rate through the boiler must not be allowed to fall below that given in table 3.
4.4 Bypass
The boiler is fitted with an adjustable automatic bypass. Ensure that under no circumstances does the flow rate drop below the figure specified, refer to table 3 and section 11.6.
The installation of the boiler must comply with the requirements of the current issue of BS6798, in Ireland, refer also to the current edition of I.S.813 "Domestic Gas Installations".
In GB it is necessary to comply with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 (for Scotland, the Water Byelaws 2000, Scotland).
To comply with the Water regulations your attention is drawn to: The Water Regulations guide published by the Water Regulations Advisory Service (WRAS) gives full details of the requirements.
In IE the requirements given in the current edition of I.S.813 "Domestic Gas Installations" and the current Building Regulations must be followed.
4.5 Filling the Sealed System
NOTE: The water pressure at the boiler must be at least 1.2bar
to enable filling the boiler to a minimum pressure. If not pressurisation must be carried out by an alternative filling loop.
The boiler has a built in filling device, see diagram 4.2. A push­on extension is supplied in the loose items pack to ease access to the filling device tap.
This filling device is designed to enable the re-pressurisation of the system in the event of loss of pressure. It is not intended to be used to completely fill the system. If so used, it may take a long time to fill the system.
To fill the system quickly provision should be made to include a proprietry filling loop external to the boiler.
Suitable external filling systems are shown diagramatically, see diagram 4.3. The system should be pressurized to 1 bar, indicated on the digital display with no heating demand.

6 Installation Preparation
6.2 Wall Template
Take the wall template from the documentation pack and place in the desired position on a flat wall, giving due consideration to boiler clearances, see section 2, and the flue you are fitting.
6.3 Flue Hole Cutting
The standard horizontal flue is designed with an internal fall of 44mm/metre towards the boiler for disposal of condensate. If the standard flue length alone is being used then the flue hole of diameter 105mm can be cut in the position marked on the wall template.
For standard side flues the horizontal flue centre line on the wall template should be extended to the side wall, and the vertical centre of the flue hole marked at 176mm from the back wall.
For installations with external access, a 105mm diameter core drill can be used.
For installations with internal access only a 125mm diameter core drill should be used.
When using extension pipes with the horizontal rear flue, a core drill size of 125mm should be used to allow the extension pieces to slope at 44mm/metre (2.5°) towards the boiler.
For extended side flues, the flue hole centre should be determined by extending the dashed inclined line on the template to the side wall. This dashed line is drawn at 44mm/metre (2.5 rise from the boiler. Where this line reaches the side wall, a horizontal line should be marked. The vertical centre line of the flue should then be marked at 176mm from the back wall, see diagram 6.2.
To allow for the flue passing through the wall at this angle a 125mm hole should be drilled irrespective of internal or external installation.
Remove the wall template whilst drilling the flue hole.
6.4 Fixing Jig
Reposition the wall template over the flue hole and mark the position of the fixing holes for the fixing jig, see diagram 6.3.
Drill the required fixing holes and insert suitable wall plugs.
NOTE: Due to the varied site conditions we do not supply fixings and advise that the installer should supply those which are suitable.
Secure the fixing jig to the wall.

8 Safety Discharge Valve and Condensate Connections
8.1 Safety Discharge Valve
The pipe from the safety discharge valve must not discharge above an entrance, window or any type of public access area.
Take the short safety discharge tube, union nut and seal, supplied loose in the boiler fittings pack and fit as shown in diagram 8.1
This must be extended, using not less than 15mm o.d. pipe, to discharge, in a visible position, outside the building, facing downwards, preferably over a drain.
The pipe must have a continuous fall and be routed to a position so that any discharge of water, possibly boiling, or steam cannot create any danger to persons, damage to property or external electrical components and wiring.
To ease future servicing it is advisable to use a compression type fitting to extend the safety discharge valve tube.
8.2 Condensate Drain Connection
The condensate drain connection is behind the pump at the rear of the boiler, see diagram 8.2. A flexible condensate outlet pipe is supplied loose in the base polystyrene packaging and should be used to fit on to the drain connection, if required, to discharge condensate to a drain. The drain pipe should have a fall of a least 2.5
Condensate should, if possible be discharged into the household internal drainage system. If this is not practicable, discharge can be allowed into the external household drains or a purpose designed soak away, refer to diagram 8.3.
It is recommended that any external condensate drain pipe is insulated and also preferably of 32mm diameter, to prevent freezing in adverse weather conditions.
The condensate is discharged periodically in 'slugs' by siphonic action.
It is not necessary to provide air breaks or extra traps in the discharge pipe as there is already a 75mm high trap inside the boiler. Fitting an extra trap may cause the boiler siphon to work incorrectly.
Refer to BS5546 or BS6798 for advice on disposal of boiler condensate.

11.3 Preparation for Lighting
Isolate the boiler from the mains electrical supply.
Test for gas soundness and purge air from the gas supply. Turn on the gas service cock, see diagram 7.1.
11.4 Initial Lighting
The lighting procedure of the boiler is fully automated.
Check that all external controls are calling for heat. If the integral programmer is fitted check that it is correctly programmed and if necessary overridden to provide heat.
Ensure that both the central heating water temperature and the hot water temperature control knobs are turned OFF (0).
Turn on the mains electrical supply and the mains reset knob to (I) on the controls fascia.
Turn the central heating water temperature control knob to (I) MINIMUM.
The digital display will show water temperature in central heating demand.
The fan should start and after a few seconds the ignition will commence
If the burner fails to light the fan will stop. Initially this may be due to air in the gas supply line. The boiler will automatically have three attempts at ignition.
If necessary turn the reset switch to the off position (0), then back to the on position (I) and the boiler will restart.
After the boiler has lit, allow to warm at MINIMUM temperature setting to purge any air from the system.
NOTE: If the appliance is operated above MINIMUM on initial lighting, there is a possibility that the overheat thermostat will trip and "F5" will be displayed on controls fascia, this is due to air not having been completly purged. See diagram 11.3 for reset switch.
Once the system has been purged of air turn the Hot water temperature control knob to the desired position and open a hot water tap. The diverter valve motor will move to hot water supply and the display will read system pressure. Check that hot water is available and then close the hot water tap.
Turn the Central heating water temperature control knob to the desired temperature.
The appliance will then continue to fire in central heating until the user controls are satisfied or there is another demand made for hot water.
NOTE: After first power up the firing sequence for central heating changes. After one minute stabilisation time the boiler will ramp slowly to full rate rather than going immediately to full rate. This is an adaptive feature to cope with small system requirements.
11.5 Testing - Natural Gas ONLY
Should any doubt exist about the gas rate, check it using the gas meter test dial and stop watch at least 10 minutes after the burner has lit, making sure that all other gas burning appliances and pilot lights are off.
3
The approximate gas rates: 24cxi : 2.24m
30cxi : 2.8m
38cxi : 3.6m
The gas valve is factory set for natural gas (G20) and should need no adjustment. (LPG (G31) should be adjusted as described on the previous page). It should be checked that the supply pressure is 20mbar when the boiler is firing at full rate. This can be achieved by turning on several hot water taps and checking the inlet pressure at the inlet pressure test point on the gas valve shown in diagram 11.4. Turn taps off and disconnect pressure gauge.
In the unlikely event that the gas valve needs adjusting, refer to section 12.6. Re-setting of the gas valve requires a combustion analyser and any adjustment should only be carried out by a competent person.
Note that the burner pressure cannot be measured at the gas valve as it is altered by the suction of the fan and modulated according to demand.

11.6 Testing - Heating System
Check that all remote controls are calling for heat. The boiler will fire automatically. Fully open all radiator valves, flow control valve 'A', if fitted, see diagram 4.1.
Balance the radiators as required and if fitted adjust valve 'A' to give the required system differential. Turn off all radiators that can be shut off by the user and check to see if less than the maximum differential allowed of 20 flow and return.
This boiler has a built in bypass, see diagram 11.5.
The boiler is supplied with the bypass open half a turn. It should not be necessary to adjust the bypass, but if required turn the adjustment screw clockwise to close the valve, see diagram
11.5.
Allow the system to reach maximum temperature then switch off the boiler by isolating from the electrical supply.
Drain the entire system rapidly whilst hot, using the drain tap at the lowest part of the system. Fill and vent the system as described previously in section 11.2.
Lock or remove the handle from control valve 'A', if fitted.

11 Commissioning - Instructions to the User
11.8 User Controls and Options
The mains reset on/off switch is used to restart the boiler after a fault condition has occurred, i.e. ignition failure, low water pressure or high water temperature.
The central heating water temperature and hot water temperature control knobs allow the user to set the temperatures in each mode.
NOTE: If there is no demand the digital display shows the water pressure.
Temperature Display
The digital display normally shows the operating temperature of the unit when there is a central heating demand.
Holiday Mode
Normal mode uses the domestic hot water and central heating temperatures selected.
By turning the central heating water temperature and hot water temperature control knobs to minimum setting the holiday mode is set up. However, frost protection and pump exercise programme remain active. By doing this the DHW will operate without pre-heat and DHW will set at maximum temperature. To resume normal operation after a holiday period, return the control knobs to their original position.
11.9 Pump Exercise Program
After a power cut or every 24 hours in holiday mode the three way valve will switch and the pump will run to prevent the components from sticking. This will also occur during normal operating if there is no domestic or central heating demand for more than 24 hours.
11.10 Frost Protection
The boiler has a built in frost protection programme as long as the electricity and gas are left switched on.
This device operates the appliance pump when the temperature inside the boiler falls below 7°C and circulates water around the appliance only.
If the temperature falls to 3°C the burner is lit and water circulates around the heating system.
When the temperature inside the appliance reaches 10°C the burner will shut down and after a short period the pump will stop.
This device primarily protects the boiler. Any other exposed areas of the system should be protected by a separate frost thermostat.
