the room thermostat).
d) A sealed system must only be filled by
a competent person using a method
similar to that shown in fig. 5. The
system design should incorporate
the connections appropriate to one
of these methods.
e) It is most important that the boiler is
not allowed to ignite until it and the
heating system is filled.
Ensure that the electrical supply to
the boiler is turned off. Open the auto
air vent, 17 fig 3. Fill the system to
approximately 1.5 bar.
Use the manual air vent located on
the uppermost connection to the
primary heat exchanger (item 8
fig. 3) to release any air retained,
and ensure that all the radiators are
vented. Top up the system pressure
to 1.5 bar. Turn on the power supply
to the boiler and put the boiler in the
Summer mode.
While in the Summer mode, adjust
the heating flow temperature to its
minimum 20 degrees. Put the boiler
into the Winter mode and allow it to
ignite. Run the boiler in this mode for
approximately 30 minutes, regularly
checking that trapped any air is
released. and gradually increasing
the flow temperature to 60 degrees.
When inhibitor is added repeat
this procedure with the initial flow
temperature at 20 degrees. The flow
temperature should then be set to
the desired value.
NOTE: If the domestic water supply is
metered, or should a water meter be
added at a later time, a small expansion
vessel should be included on the
Domestic hot water pipework.
2.4 CHARACTERISTICS
OF FEEDWATER
– All recirculatory systems will
be subject to corrosion unless an
appropriate water treatment is
applied.
This means that the efficiency of the
system will deteriorate as corrosion
sludge accumulates within the
system, risking damage to pump and
valves, boiler noise and circulation
problems.
– For optimum performance after
installation this boiler and its
associated central heating system
must be flushed in accordance with
the guidelines given in BS 7593
“Treatment of water in domestic hot
water central heating systems”.
recommend only the use of
FERNOX products for the flushing
and final treatment of the system
water.
This is particularly important in hard
water areas.
Artificially softened water must not
be used to fill the heating system.
– It is important to check the inhibitor
concentration after installation,
system modification and at every
service in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions (Test
kits are available from inhibitor
stockists).
FLUES INSTALLATION MUST COMPLY
WITH THE CURRENT VERSION OF
BS5440.
2.5 INSTALLATION COAXIAL DUCT
ø 60/100 - ø 80/125 (fig. 6)
The coaxial suction and discharge pipes
are supplied in a special kit (that can
be purchased separately) along with
assembly instructions.
The diagrams of fig. 6 illustrate some
examples of different types of fluing
options allowed and the maximum
lengths that can be reached.

IMPORTANT:
– The insertion of each additional 90° bend
with a diameter of 60/100 (code 8095860)
reduces the available section by 1.5 meters.
– The insertion of each additional 90° bend
with a diameter of 80/125 (code 8095861)
reduces the available section by 2 meters.
– Each additional 45° curve installed a
diameter of 60/100 (code 8095960)
reduces the available length by 1.0 metres.
– Each additional 45° curve installed a
diameter of 80/125 (code 8095961) reduces
the available length by 1.0 metres.
HORIZONTAL FLUES MUST BE LEVEL
NOTE: Before connecting accessories, it is
always advisable to lubricate the internal part
of the gaskets with silicon products. Avoid
using oils and greases.
