ideal Response 100 User guide

Response: The combi boiler
The Ideal Response is a wall mounted, fanned flue combination boiler which serves a home's central heating system and delivers hot water on demand. It has been designed to be 'friendly' to the user, installer and service engineer.
Response: The fit anywhere combi
Simple fanned 'go anywhere' flue
The Response's flue turret simply rotates through 360° to allow horizontal outlet in any direction. Options include horizontal flue length extensions and the flue is self-sealing, eliminating the need for outside assembly - an important benefit in high-rise applications.
Downward or upward connections...
Water and gas connections have been designed to be as simple and fast as possible. The Ideal Response comes complete with a rugged mounting frame which can accommodate downward or upward routed gas, water and electrical connections before the boiler is fitted.
...and it fits inside a cupboard
Its compact size - up to half that of other combis - makes the Response ideal for any kitchen. It can be installed inside a standard size kitchen wall unit without insulation and with minimal ventilation.
Response: The combi you can rely on
The Response has been designed and developed with reliability as the number one priority. But even the finest engineered product may develop a fault at some stage in its lifetime. To support the Response we've created the Ideal Care Guarantee which sets out our target to repair any fault next day.

AIR SUPPLY
Detailed recommendations for air supply are given in BS.5440:2. The following notes are for general guidance:
1. If the boiler is to be installed in a cupboard or compartment,
permanent air vents are required (for cooling purposes) in the cupboard/compartment at both high and low levels. The air vents must either communicate with room/internal space or be direct to outside air. The minimum effective areas of the permanent air vents required in the cupboard/compartment are specified in Table 4 and are related to maximum rated heat input.
2. Both air vents MUST communicate with the same room or
internal space or MUST be on the same wall to outside air.
3. In siting the air vents, care must be taken to avoid the freezing
of pipework.
4. If the boiler is NOT installed in a cupboard or compartment no
air vent is necessary.

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.
A gas meter can only be connected by the local gas supplier or by a registered CORGI installer.
Check that the appliance is suitable for the proposed gas supply. A working gas pressure of 20 mbar MUST be available at the boiler inlet.
IMPORT ANT.
Installation pipes MUST be fitted in accordance with BS. 6891. Pipework from the meter to Response boilers MUST be of an adequate size, i.e. not less than 22mm O.D. copper or 3/4" BSP iron.
The complete installation MUST be tested for gas soundness and purged as described in the above code.

FLUE INSTALLATION
The flue must be installed in accordance with the recommendations of BS. 5440: Part 1.
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.
3. Minimum acceptable spacing from the terminal to
obstructions and ventilation openings are specified in Table 6.
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. The minimum spacing in Table 6, Nos. 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 would be 75mm, in order to allow a terminal guard to be fitted.
Terminals guards are available from boiler suppliers - ask for TFC Guard, Model K1. In case of difficulty contact:
Grasslin (UK) Ltd., Tower House, Vale Rise, Tonbridge, Kent TN9 1TB. Tel: 01732 359888. Fax: 01732 354445. www.ffc.ukco.com
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 part 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: 1990.

For the system water expansion to be contained by the 8-litre expansion vessel fitted to the boiler the cold system volume must not exceed:
119 litres when pressurised to 0.5 bar (cold)
107 litres when pressurised to 0.7 bar (cold)
91 litres when pressurised to 1.0 bar (cold)
If the pressure exceeds 2.65 bar when the boiler is up to temperature with all radiators in use then an additional expansion vessel MUST be installed on the return pipework.

SEALED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS - Central Heating - continued
7. Thermostatic radiator valves. Caradon Plumbing Limited support the
recommendations made by leading manufacturers of domestic heating controls 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. Such an arrangement will provide for a more efficient control of the environment and will also avoid the continuous running of the circulation pump during programmed heating ON periods, saving electrical energy.
IMPORT ANT.
It is therefore strongly recommended that, when thermostatic radiator valves are used, the space heating temperature control over a living/dining area or a hallway, having a heat requirement of at least 10% of the boiler output, is achieved using a room thermostat whilst other rooms are individually controlled by thermostatic radiator valves.
However, if thermostatic radiator valves are fitted to all radiators then a bypass MUST be fitted. This should consist of 22mm ( boiler as possible and incorporating a balancing valve
3/4") pipe positioned as far from the
which cannot be adjusted by the householder.
For adjustment refer to Frame 45. a. The total length of pipework A, B, C & D
be less than 3m (10') and must not include any other valves.
b. The balancing valve MUST be at least one turn open.

DOMESTIC HOT WATER REQUIREMENTS
1. The domestic hot water service must be in accordance
with BS 5546 and BS 6700.
2. For the minimum and maximum working pressures of the Response domestic hot water circuit refer to Table 1, page 3. However in areas where DHW inlet pressures are greater than 2 bar a water pressure governor should be fitted to ease commissioning
3. The cold water supply pipe should be flushed before fitting the boiler. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the DHW inlet is free from debris.
4. The boilers are suitable for connection to most types of washing machine and dishwashing appliances.
5. When connecting to suitable showers, i.e. those designed for modulating domestic hot water, ensure that:
a. The cold inlet to the boiler is fitted with an approved
anti-vacuum or syphon non-return valve.
b. Hot and cold supplies are of equal pressure.

WARNING
A mains supply of 230 V ~ 50 Hz is required.
The fuse rating should be 3A.
Wiring external to the boiler MUST be in accordance with the current I.E.E. (BS.7671) Wiring Regulations and any local regulations.
All external controls and wiring must be suitable for mains voltage.
Wiring should be 3 core PVC insulated cable, not less than 0.75 mm x 0.2mm).
. This appliance must be efficiently earthed.
INSTALLATION
Wiring external to the boiler MUST be in accordance with the current wiring regulations and any local regulations.
Connection must be made in a way that allows complete isolation of the electrical supply such as a double pole switch having a 3mm (1/8") contact separation in both poles, or a plug and socket, serving only the boiler and system controls. The means of isolation must be accessible to the user after installation.
Internal Programmer
The Ideal Programmer Kit is supplied with its own instructions. Associated controls should be wired as shown in Diagram A.
Earths are not shown for clarity but must never be omitted.
2
(24
External Single Channel Programmer
This should be wired as shown in Diagram B
External T wo Channel Programmer
This should be wired as shown in Diagram C. The power to the programmer should be isolated with the same switch that isolates power to the boiler, otherwise the boiler can be left live, even when the boiler isolating switch is off. Using a two channel programmer will disable the heating switch.
Room Thermostat
It is recommended to use a room thermostat in conjunction with the boiler to give the most efficient boiler performance and the most comfortable central heating performance. The room thermostat should be wired (depending on the programmer option) as either diagram A, B or C. The boiler will operate without a room thermostat by using the central heating temperature control to vary the flow temperature between 70 oC and 82 oC (± 5 oC.)
Frost Thermostat
Central heating systems fitted wholly inside the house do not normally require frost protection as the house acts as a 'storage heater' and can normally be left at least 24 hours without frost damage.

a. To extract maximum heat from the boiler, a 2 minute
pump overrun period occurs after each heating cycle (unless immediately followed by DHW draw off).
b. During this period the boiler
even if the room thermostat is calling - this prevents short cycling and thus is more efficient.
c. The 2 minute period can be curtailed by running a hot
tap for a few seconds or turning the mains off briefly.

INSTALLATION
e. Provided that the mains supply switches are left ON,
the pump will run for at least 30 seconds each day (even if neither CH nor DHW is in use), as a self­checking measure.
1. Check that all the drain cocks are closed and any valves
in the flow and return are open. Open the dust cap on the auto air vent (see Frame 1) by one turn.
2. Check that the system has been filled and pressurised
(see Frame 4) and that the boiler is not air locked.
3. Check that the overheat thermostat (H) is calling for heat -

checked at the gas meter, with no other appliance in use. These figures apply at the nominal UK mains voltage of 230V.
Note.
Long flue will reduce air flow, reducing the gas rate, slightly. If these rates are not obtainable consult the fault finding section.
4. Water circulation system Note.
Fernox Superfloc flushing solution should be used
during the flushing procedure.
a. With the system HOT examine all water connections
for soundness.
b. With the system still HOT, turn off the gas, water and
electricity supplies to the boiler and drain down, to complete the flushing process.
c. Refill the system, adding inhibitor (see 'Water
Treatment'), if required. Vent as necessary to clear all air and, again, check for water soundness. After venting, repressurise as required.
d. Balance the system.
It is suggested that, initially, all radiator handwheel valves (or TRVs if fitted) be set fully open, that all lockshield valves be set a half-turn open and the bypass a half-turn to one turn open (a minimum of one turn open is recommended when TRVs are used.)
Make minor adjustments to each radiator to achieve the same differential on all. Lastly, set the bypass to eliminate any boiler noise, without compromising radiator temperatures.
5. Finally, set the system controls to the user’s requirements.
6. Remove the labels from the casing front panel.
If an optional programmer kit is fitted refer to the instructions supplied with the kit.
