1 General points
The Thema CONDENS boiler is
an appliance that uses condensing
technology, which recovers heat present
in waste gas.
Thanks to this operating principle,
the boiler consumes less energy and
decreases NOx and CO2 emissions.
The Thema CONDENS boiler has a
double use (heating + instantanious hot
water).
This appliance of the room-sealed type
is equipped with a flue exhaust and air
intake for combustion products called
the flue system. This flue principle offers
the possibility to install the appliance in
any room and with no specific ventilation
requirements.
The installation and the commissioning
of the appliance has to be carried out by
a skilled professional who is responsible
for the compliance of the installation and
the commissioning according to current
regulations.
You also have to call on a skilled
professional for the maintenance and
repairing of the appliance as well as for
any gas adjustment.
Saunier Duval has specially designed
different accessories for your appliance
depending on your installation.
If you want a detailed list, please contact
your supplier or visit our website
www.saunier-duval.co.uk.

12 Frost protection
12.1 Boiler frost protection
In case of frost risk, do as follows:
Make sure the boiler is supplied with
electrical power and gas.
Select the operating mode on the
control panel.
The frost protection system orders the
pump to start as soon as the temperature
in the heating circuit falls below 8°C. The
pump stops as soon as the temperature of
the water contained in the heating circuit
reaches 10°C.
If the temperature in the heating system
falls below 5°C, the burner ignites until it
reaches 35°C.
12.2 Installation frost protection
If you leave home for a few days, select
the minimum heating temperature on
the control panel of the boiler and just
decrease the setpoint temperature on
your room thermostat.
If you leave home for a long period, see
chapter “Draining of the appliance” in
the installation manual.
