Installation and Servicing
GENERAL
GAS SUPPLY
The local gas supplier should be consulted, at the installation
planning stage, in order to establish the availability of an
adequate supply of gas. An existing service pipe must NOT be
used without prior consultation with the local gas supplier.
The boiler MUST be installed on a gas supply with a governed
meter only.
A gas meter can only be connected by the local gas supplier or
by a CORGI registered engineer. In IE by a Competent Person.
An existing meter should be checked, preferably by the gas
supplier, to ensure that the meter is adequate to deal with the
rate of gas supply required.
N.B.The principle of the 1:1 gas valve ensures that the icos
system is able to deliver its full output at inlet pressures
well below those required by BS. 6891.
IMPORTANT.
Installation pipes MUST be fitted in accordance with BS.6891.
In IE refer to I.S.813:2002. Pipework from the meter to the
boiler MUST be of an adequate size, i.e. no longer than 20m
and not less than 15mm O.D.
The complete installation MUST be tested for gas soundness
and purged as described in the above code.
FLUE INSTALLATION
Pluming will occur at the terminal, so where possible, terminal
positions where this could cause a nuisance should be avoided.
The flue must be installed in accordance with the
recommendations of BS.5440-1:2000. In IE refer to
I.S.813:2002.
The following notes are intended for general guidance:
1. The boiler MUST be installed so that the terminal is
exposed to external air.
2. It is important that the position of the terminal allows the
free passage of air across it at all times.
Table 3 - Balanced Flue Terminal Position
Terminal Position
1. Directly below or alongside an
opening window, air brick or other
ventilation opening 300 mm (12")
2. Below guttering, drain pipes or soil
pipes 75 mm ( 3")
3. Below eaves 200 mm ( 8")
4. Below balconies or a car port roof 200 mm ( 8")
5. From vertical drain pipes or soil pipes 150 mm ( 6")
6. From an internal or external corner or
to a boundary alongside the terminal 300 mm ( 12")
7. Above adjacent ground, roof or
balcony level 300 mm (12")
8. From a surface or a boundary
facing the terminal 600 mm (24")
9. From a terminal facing a terminal 1200 mm (48")
10.From an opening in a car port
(e.g. door or window) into dwelling 1200 mm (48")
11. Vertically from a terminal on the
same wall 1500 mm (60")
12.Horizontally from a terminal on the wall 300 mm (12")
Minimum Spacing
3. Minimum acceptable spacing from the terminal to
obstructions and ventilation openings are specified in
Table 3.
4. Where the lowest part of the terminal is fitted less than 2m
(6'6") above a balcony, above ground or above a flat roof to
which people have access then the terminal MUST be
protected by a purpose designed guard.
Terminal guards are available from boiler suppliers.
(ask for TFC flue guard model no. K6 - round, plastic
coated). In case of difficulty contact:
Grasslin (UK) Ltd., Tower House, Vale Rise, Tonbridge,
Kent TN9 1TB
Tel: +44 (0) 1732 359 888. Fax: +44 (0) 1732 354 445
www.tfc-group.co.uk
Ensure that the guard is fitted centrally.
5. The flue assembly shall be so placed or shielded as to
prevent ignition or damage to any art of any building.
6. The air inlet/products outlet duct and the terminal of the
boiler MUST NOT be closer than 25mm (1") to combustible
material. Detailed recommendations on the protection of
combustible material are given in BS.5440-1:2000. In IE
refer to I.S.813:2002.
IMPORTANT. It is absolutely essential to ensure, in practice,
that products of combustion discharging from the terminal
cannot re-enter the building or any other adjacent building
through ventilators, windows, doors, other sources of natural
air infiltration, or forced ventilation / air conditioning.
If this should occur the appliance MUST be turned OFF,
labelled as 'unsafe' until corrective action can be taken.
TERMINAL
The terminal assembly can be adapted to accommodate
various wall thicknesses. Refer to Frame 12.
AIR SUPPLY
It is NOT necessary to have a purpose-provided air vent in the
room or internal space in which the boiler is installed. Neither
is it necessary to ventilate a cupboard or compartment in which
the boiler is installed, due to the low surface temperatures of
the boiler casing during operation; therefore the requirements
of BS.6798, Clause 12, and BS 5440:2 may be disregarded. In
IE the requirements of I.S.813:2002 may be disregarded.
WATER CIRCULATION SYSTEM
IMPORTANT.
A minimum length of 1metre of copper pipe MUST be fitted to
both flow and return connections from the boiler before
connection to any plastic piping.
The central heating system should be in accordance with
BS.6798 and, in addition, for smallbore and microbore
systems, BS.5449.
The hot water storage cylinder MUST be of the indirect type and
should preferably be made of copper.
Single feed, indirect cylinders MUST NOT be used. The
appliances are NOT suitable for gravity central heating nor are
they suitable for the provision of gravity domestic hot water.
The hot water cylinder and ancillary pipework, not forming part
of the useful heating surface, should be lagged to prevent heat
loss and any possible freezing - particularly where pipes run
through roof spaces and ventilated underfloor spaces.

BOILER CONTROL INTERLOCKS
Caradon Ideal Limited recommend that heating systems
utilising full thermostatic radiator valve control of temperature in
individual rooms should also be fitted with a room thermostat
controlling the temperature in a space served by radiators not
fitted with such a valve as stated in BS. 5449.
When thermostatic radiator valves are used, the space heating
temperature control over a living area having a heating
requirement of at least 0.9kW (3000Btu/h) of the boiler heat
output should be achieved using a room thermostat whilst other
rooms are individually controlled by thermostatic radiator
valves. A higher proportion of TRVs may be used, provided that
a bypass between the boiler flow and return is fitted, to ensure
adequate flow when all TRVs are closed.
For further information refer to the 'Good Practice Guide 143', a
publication of the Energy Efficiency Office, available from the
Building Research Establishment, Garston, Watford WD2 7JR.
Tel: +44 (0) 1923 664258.
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
WARNING.
Wiring external to the appliance MUST be in accordance with
the current I.E.E. (BS.7671) Wiring Regulations and any local
regualtions which apply. For Ireland reference should be made
to the current ETCI rules for electrical installations.
The point of connection to the mains should be readily
accessible and adjacent to the boiler.
The appliance MUST be efficiently earthed.
CONDENSATE DRAIN - Refer to Frames 27 & 45
A condensate drain is provided on the boiler. This drain must be
connected to a drainage point on site. All pipework and fittings
in the condensate drainage system MUST be made of plastic -
no other materials may be used.
IMPORTANT.
Any external runs must be insulated
The drain outlet on the boiler is standard 21.5mm (3/4")

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS - continued
General
1. The installation must comply with all relevant national and
local regulations.
2. The installation should be designed to work with flow
temperatures of up to 82
3. All components of the system must be suitable for a working
pressure of 3 bar and temperature of 110
should be taken in making all connections so that the risk of
leakage is minimised.
The following components are incorporated within the
appliance:
a. Circulating pump.
b. Safety valve, with a non-adjustable preset lift pressure
of 3 bar.
c. Pressure gauge, covering a range of 0 to 6 bar.
d. An 8-litre expansion vessel, with an initial charge pressure
of 0.75 bar.
4. 'Make-up' Water. Provision must be made for replacing water
loss from the system, either :
a. From a manually filled 'make-up' vessel with a readily
visible water level. The vessel should be mounted at
least 150mm above the highest point of the system and
be connected through a non-return valve to the system,
fitted at least 150mm below the 'make-up' vessel on the
return side of the radiators.
or
b. Where access to a 'make-up' vessel would be difficult,
by pre-pressurisation of the system.
The maximum cold water capacity of the system
should not exceed 143 litres, if not pressurized.
However, if the system is to be pressurized, the
efficiency of the expansion vessel will be reduced and
a larger vessel (or smaller system volume) may be
necessary. If the capacity of the vessel is not
considered sufficient for this, or for any other reason,
an additional vessel MUST be installed on the return to
the boiler.
Guidance on vessel sizing is given in Frame 3.

C. Extra care
5. Filling. The system may be filled by the following
method:
Through a temporary hose connection from a 'draw-off'
tap, supplied from a service pipe under mains pressure.
Where the mains pressure is excessive, a pressure
reducing valve must be used to facilitate filling.
When installing the filling device, it must be connected as
below to fully comply with the water regulations.
This may involve the fitting of an additional WRAS
approved isolator valve to the mains supply.
i. Thoroughly flush out the whole system with
cold water.
ii. Fill and vent the system until the pressure gauge
registers 1.5 bar, and examine for leaks.
iii. Check the operation of the safety valve by
raising the water pressure until the valve lifts. This
should occur within 0.3 bar of the preset lift pressure.
iv. Release water from the system until the
minimum system design pressure is reached;
1.0 bar if the system is to be pre-pressurised.

SYSTEM BALANCING
The boiler does not normally need a bypass but at least some
radiators on the heating circuit, of load at least 10% of the
minimum boiler output, must be provided with twin lockshield
valves so that this minimum heating load is always available.
See note regarding thermostatic radiator valves on page 8.
Note.
Systems incorporating zone valves which could completely cut
off the flow through the system, must also include a bypass.
BALANCING
1. Set the programmer to ON, for both CH and DHW. Turn
the cylinder thermostat down.
Close the manual or thermostatic valves on all radiators,
leaving the twin lockshield valves (on the radiators
referred to above) in the OPEN position.

WATER TREATMENT
These boilers incorporate an ALUMINIUM heat exchanger.
Turn up the room thermostat and adjust these lockshield
valves to give boiler flow and return temperatures not more
than 20
These valves should now be left as set.
2. Open all manual or thermostatic radiator valves and adjust
the lockshield valves on the remaining radiators, to give
around 15
3. Turn up the cylinder thermostat and adjust the cylinder
balancing valve so that the cylinder achieves a maximum
flow consistent with adequate flow to the radiators. Check
that with only the domestic hot water loop in circuit a
differential temperature of 20 oC across the boiler is not
exceeded.

Guidance Notes on Water Treatment in
1. It is most important that the correct concentration of the water treatment products is maintained in accordance with the
manufacturers' instructions.
2. If the boiler is installed in an existing system any unsuitable additives MUST be removed by thorough cleansing.
BS7593:1992 details the steps necessary to clean a domestic heating system.
3. In hard water areas, treatment to prevent limescale may be necessary - however the use of artificially softened water is NOT
permitted.
4. Under no circumstances should the boiler be fired before the system has been thoroughly flushed.

Notes.
1.
The flue duct MUST be inclined at 1.5 degrees
to the horizontal to allow condensate to drain
back into the boiler and out through the
condensate drain.
2.
If the boiler is to be installed with upward piping
routed behind the boiler then the optional standoff kit should be used. Care must be taken
when cutting the ducts and marking the wall to
suit this condition.

PREPARING THE WALL
IMPORTANT.
Ensure that, during the cutting operation, masonry
falling outside of the building does not cause damage
or personal injury.
1. Cut the flue hole (preferably with a 5" core boring
tool), ensuring that the hole is square to the wall.
Both wall faces immediately around the cut hole
should be flat.
2. Drill 4 holes with a 7mm (
insert the plastic plugs provided, for the piping
frame.
3. Locate 4 No.10 x 2" screws in the piping frame
(one at each side, in any of the 3 holes provided at
each side) and screw home.
