1 Safety
1.1 Action-related warnings
Classification of action-related warnings
The action-related warnings are classified in
accordance with the severity of the possible
danger using the following warning signs and
signal words:
Warning symbols and signal words
Danger!
Imminent danger to life or risk of
severe personal injury
Danger!
Risk of death from electric shock
Warning.
Risk of minor personal injury
Caution.
Risk of material or environmental
damage
1.2 Intended use
The air/flue pipes described here are constructed using state-of-the-art technology in
accordance with the recognised safety rules
and regulations. Nevertheless, there is still a
risk of injury or death to the system operator
or others or of damage to the products and
other property in the event of improper use or
use for which the products are not intended.
The air/flue pipes mentioned in these instructions must only be used in conjunction with
the product types mentioned in these instructions.
Any other use that is not specified in these
instructions, or use beyond that specified in
this document, shall be considered improper
use.
Intended use includes the following:
– observance of accompanying operating,
installation and servicing instructions for all
system components
– installing and fitting the product in accord-
ance with the product and system approval
– compliance with all inspection and main-
tenance conditions listed in the instructions.
1.3 General safety information
1.3.1 Risk caused by inadequate
qualifications
The following work must only be carried out
by competent persons who are sufficiently
qualified to do so:
– Installation
– Disassembly
– Installation
– Start-up
– Maintenance
– Repair
– Decommissioning
▶ Observe all instructions that are included
with the product.
▶ Proceed in accordance with the current
state of technology.
▶ Observe all applicable directives, stand-
ards, laws and other regulations.
1.3.2 Risk of poisoning due to escaping
flue gas
Improperly installed flue gas pipes may cause
flue gas to escape.
▶ Before starting up the product, check that
the whole air/flue pipe is securely fastened
and leak-tight.
The flue gas pipe may become damaged by
unforeseeable external influences.
▶ As part of the annual maintenance, inspect
the flue gas installation in terms of:
– external faults such as brittleness and
damage
– safe pipe connections and secure
fastenings
1.3.3 Risk of death from escaping flue
gas
▶ Ensure that all inspection and measure-
ment openings in the air/flue pipe that are
within the building and can be opened are
always closed for start-up and during operation.
Flue gas may escape from leaking pipes or
damaged seals. Mineral-oil-based greases
can damage the seals.
1 Safety
4 Installation manual 0020200969_04
▶ When installing the flue gas installation,
use only flue gas pipes that are made from
the same material.
▶ Do not install any damaged pipes.
▶ File off sharp burrs and chamfer the ends
of the pipes before installing them, and
dispose of the shavings.
▶ Never use mineral-oil-based grease for the
installation.
▶ To facilitate the installation, use only wa-
ter, standard commercial soft soap or, if
required, the supplied lubricant.
Mortar residues, shavings, etc., in the flue
gas route may prevent the flue gas from flowing outdoors as intended, and this flue gas
may escape into the dwelling instead.
▶ After installation, remove all mortar
residues, shavings, etc., from the air/flue
pipe.
1.3.4 Risk of death from leaks in the flue
gas route
Extensions that are not fixed to the wall or
ceiling may become disengaged due to sagging or thermal expansion.
▶ Ensure that every extension is fixed to the
wall or ceiling by means of a pipe clamp.
The distance between two pipe clamps
must not be greater than the length of the
extension, and must not exceed 2 m.
Condensate that collects inside the flue in
certain areas can damage the flue gas pipe
seals.
▶ Install the horizontal flue pipe to the
product with a downward gradient.
– Downward gradient to the product: 3°
Note
3° corresponds to a downward
gradient of approx. 50 mm per
metre of pipe length.
1.3.5 Risk of fire and damage to
electronics caused by lightning
▶ If the building is equipped with a lightning
protection system, incorporate the air/flue
pipe into the lightning protection.
▶ If the flue gas pipe (parts of the air/flue
pipe situated outside the building) contains
metal materials, incorporate it into the potential equalisation system.
1.3.6 Risk of injury from ice formation
Where air/flue pipes penetrate the roof, the
water vapour contained in flue gas may precipitate as ice on the roof or the roof structures.
▶ Ensure that this ice formation does not
slide from the roof.
1.3.7 Risk of damage to the structure of
the building due to moisture
As a result of improper installation, water may
penetrate the building and cause material
damage.
▶ Observe the definitions in the directives for
the planning and implementation of roofs
with seals.
1.3.8 Product damage caused by adjacent
channel vents
1 m
1 m
3 m
H › 0
Extremely damp exhaust air escapes from
the channel vents. This may condense in the
air pipe and cause damage to the product.
▶ Observe the requirements for minimum
clearances in accordance with the illustration.
1.3.9 Requirements for the air/flue pipe
opening
As a result of improper installation, water may
penetrate the building and cause material
damage.
Safety 1
0020200969_04 Installation manual 5
▶ Observe the requirements for the air/flue
pipe opening in the boiler's installation
instructions.
1.3.10 Risk of material damage caused by
using an unsuitable tool
▶ Use the correct tool to tighten or loosen
screw connections.
1.4 CE certification
The heat generators are certified as gas consumption appliances with attached flue gas
installation in accordance with the EU gas appliances directive 2009/142/EC. This Installation Manual is a component of the certification and is cited in the type testing certificate.
In compliance with the regulatory statutes of
this installation manual, the proof of usability of the elements identified by Vaillant article
numbers that are designed for the flue pipe is
provided. If you do not use certified elements
for the Vaillant air/flue gas pipe when installing the heat generators, this voids the CE
conformity of the heat generator. We therefore strongly recommend that you fit Vaillant
air/flue gas systems.
1.5 Regulations (directives, laws,
standards)
▶ Observe the national regulations, stand-
ards, guidelines and laws.

2 Notes on the documentation
2.1 Observing other applicable documents
▶ You must always observe the installation instructions for
the installed heat generator.
2.2 Storing documents
▶ Pass these instructions and all other applicable docu-
ments on to the system operator.
2.3 Applicability of the instructions
These instructions apply only for the heat generators named
in the other applicable documents, hereinafter referred to as
the "product".

4 System conditions
4.1 Route of the air/flue pipe in buildings
The air/flue system should be as short as possible and run
as straight as possible.
▶ Do not arrange several elbows or inspection elements
immediately after each other.
As a result of standards relating to the hygiene of drinking
water, water pipes must be protected against impermissible
heating.
▶ Lay the air/flue pipe separately from the drinking water
pipes.
It must be possible to check and, if required, clean the entire
length of the flue gas route.
It must be possible to remove the air/flue pipe again with
minimal effort (no time-consuming structural or cementing
work in the living area, but screwed-in casing instead). If they
are arranged in shafts, they are usually easy to remove.
4.2 Location of the opening
The location of the flue gas installation opening must comply
with the relevant applicable international, national and/or
local regulations.
▶ Align the opening of the flue gas installation in such a
way that ensures a secure outward flow and distribution
of the flue gases and prevents these gases from re-entering the building through openings (windows, air intake
openings and balconies).
4.3 Disposing of condensate
Local regulations may stipulate the minimum quality of any
condensate that may enter the public waste-water system. If
required, a condensate neutraliser must be used.
▶ When disposing of the condensate into the public waste-
water system, observe the local regulations.
▶ Only use corrosion-resistant piping material for removing
condensate.
