4.5 Filling the Sealed System
The boiler has a built in filling loop, see diagram 4.2. To ease access to the filling loop tap, push on the tap extension piece, supplied in loose items pack, see diagram 4.2. Open the filling loop tap to pressurise the system to 1 bar indicated on the digital display with no demand.
Note that the electrical supply to the appliance has to be switched on to enable the pressure to be read in the digital display.
Refer to section 11.2 for filling procedure. On filling the system a small amount of water maybe discharged
from the reduced pressure zone valve, see diagram4.2.
4.6 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 Superfloc 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 or Salamander corrosion guard inhibitor.
4.7 Draining Tap
A draining tap must be provided at the lowest points of the system, which will allow the entire system to be drained.
A drain tap for the appliance is provided as an integral part of the hydroblock, see diagram 12.11.

5 Domestic Hot Water System
General - All domestic hot water circuits, connections, fittings
must be in accordance with the relevant standards and water supply regulations.
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".
5.1 Water Pressure
The maximum working pressure of the domestic hot water circuit is 10 bar. If the cold water supply pressure exceeds this, then a pressure-reducing valve must be fitted in the supply to the boiler.
5.2 ‘Hard’ Water Areas
The temperatures within the heat exchanger are limited by the boiler control system to minimise scale formation within the hot water pipework. However, in areas where the water is ‘hard’ (i.e. more than 200mg/litre), it is recommended that the hot water setting is reduced and that a scale reducer is fitted.
Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions or consult the local water company for additional advice.
5.3 Domestic Water Flow Rate
The water flow rate is restricted to a maximum 10 l/min (24cxi) 12 l/min (30cxi) and15.5 l/min (38cxi) by a restrictor fitted during boiler installation, see diagram 8.2.

6 Installation Preparation
6.1 Unpacking of Boiler
IMPORTANT: With regards to the Manual Handling Operations,
1992 Regulations, the following lift operation exceeds the recommended weight for a one man lift.
Stand the boiler carton upright. Cut and remove the securing straps and lift off the carton
sleeve. Place aside any loose components until required. Carefully lay the boiler on its back, remove the two front casing
panel securing screws and lift off the panel from two retaining lugs, see diagram 6.3.
Remove the two inner casing panel securing screws at the bottom front of the panel, then lift off the two retaining lugs, see diagram 6.3.
6.2 Wall Template
Remove the wall template from the wall mounting pack and place in the desired position on a flat wall, giving due consideration to boiler clearances, see section 2.2.
6.3 Flue Hole Cutting
The standard horizontal flue is designed with an internal fall of 35mm/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 35mm/metre (2.5
o
) towards the boiler.

6.4 Fixing Jig and Hanging Bracket Fixing
If previously removed, reposition the wall template over the flue hole and mark the position of the fixing holes for the jig and the hanging bracket, see diagram 6.2.
Drill the four fixing holes and insert suitable wall plugs. If gas and/or water pipes are to be plumbed through the rear
wall directly into the fixing jig holes, the holes must be drilled as marked on the wall template prior to fixing of the fixing jig.
Fix the wall products to the wall using suitable screws. Locate the jig plate between the wall brackets and secure with the screws supplied.
6.5 Pre-Plumbing
The fixing jig can now be pre-plumbed without the boiler being mounted. All water and gas connections are on the fixing jig with the exception of the condense drain and safety discharge, the positions of these are shown on the wall template for pre plumbing purposes. See sections 8 and 9 for details of gas, water, condensate connections.
Do not route any pipes behind the boiler, unless a vertical piping kit is used.
For vertical plumbing of the central heating or DHW pipes it is preferable to use the Glow-worm vertical plumbing kits, see section 1.7.

7 Flue Preparation
7.1 Flue Length
All dimensions are in mm. For rear or side flue, measure the distance from the outside wall
to the butt joint of the flue elbow fitted on top of the boiler. A standard flue system will be suitable if the length measured ‘Y’ is less than 633mm, see diagrams 7.1 and 7.2.
If the measurement ‘Y’ exceeds 633mm then one or more extension pipes are required.
When cutting, the flue duct should be cut flush with the air duct.
7.2 Extension pipes
Refer to diagrams 7.3 and 7.4. Note maximum permitted lengths When extension pipes are required it should be noted that the
length of the air ducts which butt together are 960mm long and this should be taken into account when calculating the length that requires cutting.
For example: Distance from outside wall to butt joint on the flue elbow ‘Y’ =
2700 mm. Standard flue length = 633 mm. Extension pipe length = 960 mm. Length required of final extension pipe = 2700 - (633 + 960 + 960) = 147mm. In this example the final extension pipe would be cut to 147mm,
this would be measured from the end of the air duct where the flue duct contains the ‘O-ring’ seal.
When cutting, the flue duct should be cut flush with the air duct at the opposite end to where the flue duct contains the ‘O-ring’ seal.
The system is made up from a standard horizontal flue kit and accessories. The accessories include flue extensions, 45
o
and
90
o
bends and fixing brackets.
The maximum permitted straight flue length is 10 metres plus the standard horizontal flue. For each 90
o
or 2 x 45o bends fitted,
the maximum length must be reduced by 1 metre. Note: 2 x 45
o
bends can replace 1 x 90o if necessary. When
using 90
o
bends any horizontal extension pipe should be
inclined by a minimum of 2.5
o
fall towards the boiler to facilitate
condense removal.
7.3 Flue Assembly
The flue assembly is a push fit design with securing collars. Remove all burrs from cut pipes. Diagram 7.5 shows the components supplied in the standard kit
and the flue adapter. Having cut the air and flue ducts as described in sections 7.1-
7.2 assemble the flue as follows, the flue can be fitted externally or entirely from inside.
Fit the rubber sealing collar behind the locating lugs on the flue terminal, see diagram 7.5.
Push the flue assembly into the wall, externally or internally, initially until the end of the assembly protrudes a short way from the inside face of the wall. This will enable the inner rubber sealing collar to be positioned and allow the flue duct to be drawn back into the flue elbow after the boiler has been mounted.

9.1 Safety Valve Discharge
The pipe from the safety valve must not discharge above an entrance, window or any type of public access area.
A short discharge pipe is supplied loose with the boiler fittings pack. 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, see diagram 8.1.
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 discharge pipe.
9.2 Condensate Drain Connection
The condensate drain connection is behind the pump at the rear of the boiler, see diagram 9.1. An adaptor for 21.5mm plastic overflow pipe is supplied loose with the boiler fittings pack 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
o
away from the boiler.
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.
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.

11.1 Filling Domestic Water Circuit
Fully open any valves in the domestic water supply to the boiler. Open the domestic water isolation valve, slot in line with the
length of the valve, see diagram 8.1. Open all hot water taps in turn and close them when water flows.
Check for water soundness of the complete domestic water system.
The water flow rate is restricted to a maximum 10 l/min (24cxi) 12 l/min (30cxi) and15.5 l/min (38cxi) by a restrictor fitted during boiler installation, see diagram 8.2.
11.2 Filling the Heating Circuit
Open the two central heating isolating valves and domestic cold water inlet valve, slots in line with the length of the valve, see diagram 8.1
To enable the system pressure to be viewed, turn the Central heating temperature knob and hot water temperature knob to the off position.
Turn the mains electricity supply on to the appliance and ensure that the mains switch on the appliance fascia is set to the on position.
The system pressure should be viewed on the digital display on the front of the appliance, see diagram 1.
Pressurise the system by opening the tap of the inbuilt filling loop, see diagram 4.2. Fill the system until the pressure on the display reads at least 1.0bar. Note that on filling the system a small amount of water may be discharged from the reduced pressure zone valve, see diagram 4.2.
Make sure that the automatic air vent works correctly and that the black cap is loosely fitted to allow air to escape, see diagram
11.1. Check the heating system and boiler connections for water
soundness.
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 8.1.
11.4 Initial Lighting
The lighting procedure of the boiler is fully automated. Check that all external controls are calling for heat. If an integral
clock/timer is fitted check that it is correctly programmed and if necessary overridden to provide heat.
Ensure that both the central heating and the domestic hot water control knobs are turned OFF.
Turn on the mains electrical supply and the mains reset knob to (I) on the controls fascia.
Turn the central heating hot water 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 (O), 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.
Once the system has been purged of air turn the Domestic hot water control knob to the desired position and open a hot water tap. The three way valve 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 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 that 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 - Gas
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.
The approximate gas rates: 24cxi : 2.24m
3
/h (79ft3/h)
30cxi : 2.8m
3
/h (99ft3/h)
38cxi : 3.6m3/h (127ft3/h) are for guidance only. The gas valve is factory set and should need no adjustment. 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 tapping on the gas valve shown in diagram 11.2. Turn taps off and disconnect pressure gauge.
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
o
C can be achieved across
flow and return. This boiler has a built in bypass, see diagram 11.3. 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
11.3. 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. Replace inner casing panel and front casing panel.
11.7 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 and domestic hot water 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 domestic hot water and central heating 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.
11.8 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.
11.9 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.
11.10 Instruct the User
Instruct and demonstrate the lighting procedure and advise the user on the safe and efficient operation of the boiler.
Instruct on and demonstrate the operation of any heating system controls.
Advise the user on the use and maintenance of any scale reducer and pass on any relevant instructional documents.
Advise that to ensure the continued efficient and safe operation of the boiler it is recommended that it is checked and serviced at regular intervals. The frequency of servicing will depend upon the installation conditions and usage, but in general, once a year should be enough.
Draw attention, if applicable, to the current issue of the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations, Section 35, which imposes a duty of care on all persons who let out any property containing a gas appliance in the UK.
It is the Law that any servicing is carried out by a competent person.
Advise the user that, 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.
Advise the user of the precautions necessary to prevent damage to the system, boiler and the building, in the event of the heating system being out of use during frost or freezing conditions.
Advise the user that the permanent mains electrical supply SHOULD NOT be switched off, as the built in frost protection and pump/valve saver program would not be operable.
Reminder, leave these instructions and the ‘Benchmark’ logbook with the user.
For IE, it is necessary to complete a "Declaration of Conformity" to indicate compliance to I.S.813. An example of this is given in the current edition of I.S.813.

12.6 Combustion Check.
If a gas carrying component has been replaced, the combustion of the appliance should be checked as follows. Once the appliance has been re-assembled (apart from the front and inner casing panels) connect a CO
2
combustion analyser to the
test
point on the flue adapter, see diagram 12.1. Turn on the gas service cock, see diagram 8.1. With the power off and the appliance cold, unclip the controls
fascia and hinge it down to reveal the potentiometers on the rear of the User interface, see diagram 12.7. Take care not to allow the fascia to drop down and damage the wiring.
Turn on the electrical supply. Ensure external controls are calling for heat. The boiler should
fire automatically. Allow the boiler to fire for a minimum of 60 seconds and then,
using an electrical screwdriver, rotate the service potentiometer fully clockwise, see diagram12.7. This will allow the digital display to indicate the ‘flashing’ fan speed on the appliance fascia.
In the fully clockwise position the display should be indicating the maximum fan speed of the appliance, in central heating mode this should be 39 for 24cxi, 45 for 30cxi and 45 for 38cxi. With domestic hot water max. demand this should be 51 for 24cxi, 57 for 30cxi and 57 for 38cxi. Check the CO
2
value, which
should be 9.1% +0.2 -0.5
Note that with the inner case front panel fitted the combustion readings will increase slightly to 9.3% +0.3 -
0.5.
If adjustment proves necessary then proceed as follows. Any adjustment to the gas valve should only be carried out by
a qualified person. Refer to diagram 12.6. Adjust the maximum rate CO2 with the throttle to 9.1%. (Rotate
anti-clockwise to increase).

Rotate the service potentiometer fully anti-clockwise. Hold it in this position for about 5 seconds before rotating the service potentiometer clockwise to the mid-point or 3 o’clock position. The fan should reduce to 1200 rpm which will flash ‘12’ on the LCD display.
Check the CO
2
value, which should be 9.1% +0.2 -0.5. If adjustment proves necessary then proceed as follows. Adjustment of the CO
2
at minimum rate is very coarse so
carefully adjust the CO
2
with the offset adjustment to 9.1%, see
diagram 12.6. Rotate the service potentiometer fully clockwise, see
diagram12.7 and re-check the maximum rate combustion, which should be 9.1% +0.2 -0.5.
After checking combustion rotate the service potentiometer fully anti-clockwise so that the display indicates the water temperature.
Replace the cap on the test point and refit the control cover rear panel.
