In the UK ‘CORGI’ registered installers undertake the work in compliance with safe and satisfactory standard.
ecoTEC combination boiler
The ecoTEC combination boiler is a fully automatic, wall
mounted, room sealed condensing (high efficiency) boiler for central heating and domestic hot water.
Domestic hot water is supplied directly from the boiler,
without requiring a copper cylinder, cold water tank,
feed and expansion vessel and associated pipework.
Domestic hot water has priority over central heating.
The ecoTEC plus combination boiler consists of 3 models
with outputs of 23 kW, 31 kW and 37 kW for domestic hot
water and two pro versions with outputs of 24 kW and
28 kW for domestic hot water.
All versions are available in natural gas. The ecoTEC plus
831 is also available in LPG.
ecoTEC combination boilers incorporate a warm start
facility that keeps the domestic hot water heat exchanger hot, providing an instantaneous delivery of domestic
hot water. The temperature in the domestic hot water
heat exchanger is limited by the boiler control system
and it is not necessary to install a scale reducer on the
cold mains to the boiler. However, in areas that get
exceptionally hard water, a scale reducer may be fitted
to prevent scale formation in the hot water system
pipes. The heating system on ecoTEC plus combination
boilers can be filled using the built–in filling loop contained within the boiler.

ecoTEC system boiler
The ecoTEC system boiler is a fully automatic, wall
mounted, room sealed condensing (high efficiency) boiler for central heating and domestic hot water (where a
separate indirect hot water storage cylinder is also
incorporated in the system). The ecoTEC system boiler
consists of models with outputs of 12, 15, 18, 24, 30 and
37 kW. All ecoTEC system boilers are available in Natural
Gas. The ecoTEC plus 618 and 630 are also available in
LPG.
1.3 General Notes
The boilers have been designed for use with a sealed
central heating system, and come fully tested and
assembled with a built in circulating pump, expansion
vessel and diverter valve (ecoTEC combination boilers).
The boilers are easily mounted on any internal wall and
can be installed with either a horizontal or vertical RSF
(room sealed fan assisted) flue.
The boilers use a standard flue system (100 mm or
125 mm outside diameter). Flue extensions and additional bends and elbows are available for the flue system to
Introduction 1
increase the flexibility. If desired, an inhibitor may be
used in the system. Guidance on the use of inhibitors is
contained in these instructions.
All boilers have a built in diagnostic system which indicates the operational status of the boiler. This feature
provides key information to aid commissioning and fault
finding. The data badge is fitted to the underside of the
boiler. See text of General Requirements for installation
requirements or notes.
The Valliant ecoTEC are state-of-the-art appliances
which have been constructed in accordance with recognised safety regulations. Nevertheless, danger to the life
and limb of the user or third parties can still occur or
the appliance or other material assets be damaged in
the event of improper use.
The appliance is designed to generate heat for connecting to hot water central heating systems and for instantaneous hot water supply (ecoTEC combination boilers
only). Any other use or extended use is considered to be
use other than intended. The manufacturer/supplier is
not liable for any resulting damage.
Intended use includes the observance of the operating
and installation manual and the adherence to the inspection and maintenance conditions.
Danger!
Any incorrect use is forbidden.

3.4 Installation site
The location chosen for the boiler must permit the provision of a satisfactory flue termination. The location
must also provide adequate space for servicing and air
circulation around the boiler. The boiler may be installed
in any room, although particular attention is drawn to
the requirements of BS 7671 (IEE Regulations), the electrical provisions of the Building Standards (Scotland)
Regulations, and in IE the current edition of IS 813 and
the current ETCI rules, in respect of the installation of a
boiler in a room containing a bath or shower.
Note
If a room sealed boiler is installed in a room
with a bath or shower, electrical switches or
boiler controls using the mains power supply
must be placed at locations that cannot be
reached by the person in the bath or shower.
If the boiler is installed in an unusual location, special
procedures may be necessary and BS 5546 and BS 6798
give detailed guidance on this aspect. The boiler must
be mounted on a flat, vertical wall, which must be sufficiently robust to take the weight of the boiler. The boiler
may be installed on a combustible wall, subject to the
requirements of the Local Authorities and Building
Regulations. A compartment used to enclose the boiler
must be designed and constructed specifically for this
purpose. (An existing cupboard or compartment may be
used provided that it is modified for the purpose).
Details of essential features of cupboard/compartment
design including airing cupboard installations are given
in BS 6798. If the boiler is to be fitted in a timber
framed building, it should be fitted in accordance with
Institute of Gas Engineers Publication „IGE/UP/7 Edition
2 Gas installations in timber framed and ligh steel
framed buildings“. Please note the safety instructions
below before deciding where to install the boiler:
Caution!
Do not install the appliance in rooms prone to
frost. In rooms with aggressive steam or dust,
the appliance must be operated independent of
the ambient air.
When choosing the place of installation and while operating the appliance, make sure that the air supply is free of
chemical substances containing fluorine, chlorine, sulphur
etc. Sprays, solvents and cleaning agents, paints, adhesives etc. contain the kind of substances that can lead to
corrosion even in the exhaust system when the appliance
is operated depending on the ambient air in the worst
case scenario. Particularly in hair-cutting salons, lacquering and finishing, cleaning facilities, the appliance must
be operated independent of the ambient air! Otherwise,
a separate installation room is required to guarantee that
the air supply is free of the above mentioned substances.
3.5 Gas supply
The gas supplier should ensure the availability of an
adequate supply of gas. A gas meter may only be connected to the service pipe by the supplier of gas or their
contractor. An existing meter should be checked to
ensure that it is capable of passing the rate of gas supply required. Installation pipes should be fitted in
accordance with BS 6891. In IE the current edition of IS
813. Pipework from the meter to the boiler must be of
an adequate size. Do not use pipes of a smaller size
than the boiler gas connection (15 mm). The complete
installation must be checked for leaks and purged as
described in BS 6891.

3.7 Flue termination
The following details refer to both flue systems.
a. The terminal must be located where the combustible
substances can escape freely at all times.
b. A plume of water vapour will sometimes be visible
from the flue terminal. Positions where this could be
a nuisance should be avoided.
c. If the terminal is fitted less than 2 m above a balco-
ny, above ground or above a flat roof to which people have access then a suitable terminal guard must
be provided and fitted (made by Tower Flue
Components, Tonbridge, TN9 1TB, Model K3, plastic
coated).

3.8 Air supply
Detailed recommendations for air supply are given in
BS 5440: Part 2.
It is not necessary to have an air vent in the room or
internal space in which the boiler is installed.
Cupboard or compartment ventilation
The boilers are very high efficiency appliances. As a
consequence the heat loss from the appliance casing
during operation is very low. For cupboard or compartment installations it is therefore not necessary to provide any high or low level permanent air vents for cooling purposes.
3.9 Electrical supply
A 230 V, ~ 50 Hz single phase electricity supply fused to
3 Amp. must be provided in accordance with the latest
edition of BS 7671 (IEE Wiring Regulations) and any
other local regulations that may apply. In IE reference
should be made to the current edition of the ETCI rules.
The method of connection to the mains electricity supply must provide a means of completely isolating the
boiler and its ancillary controls. Isolation is preferably
by the use of a fused three pin plug and unswitched
shuttered socket outlet, both complying with the
requirements of BS 1363. Alternatively, a 3 Amp. fused
double pole switch with a 3 mm contact separation on
both poles may be used.
Danger!
This appliance must be earthed.

3.10 Guide to system requirements
3.10.1 Water circulation system
Detailed recommendations for the water circulation system are given in BS 6798 and BS 5449: Part 1 (for small
bore and micro bore central heating systems). Pipework
not forming part of the useful heating surface should be
insulated to help prevent heat loss and possible freezing,
particularly where pipes are run through roof spaces
and ventilated underfloor spaces. Draining taps must be
located in accessible positions which permit the draining
of the whole system including the boiler and the hot
water system. Draining taps should be at least 1/2 in.
BSP nominal size and be in accordance with BS 2879.
The boiler is suitable for use with minibore or microbore
systems. Copper tubing to BS 2871: Part 1 should be used
for water carrying pipework. All capillary joints in all
DHW pipework must be made with lead free solder.
Particularly where a new boiler is to be fitted to an existing system, it is good practice that the system is thoroughly cleansed.
Caution!
To prevent the formation of deposits and prevent serious damage to the appliance and system, cleansers must be used carefully and must
be completely removed by thoroughly flushing
the system. Cleansers should only be left in
systems for a maximum of 24 hours.
This cleansing must take place prior to the fitting of the
new boiler and be in accordance with BS 7593. For
advice on the application of system cleansers contact
Sentinel, Betz Dearborn Ltd. Widnes, Cheshire, WA8
8UD. Tel: 0151 420 9595, or Fernox, Alpha Fry
Technologies, Tandem House, Marlow Way, Croydon, CR0
4XS. Tel 0870 8700362.
3.10.2 Filling and preparing heating system
The system can be filled using the built in filling loop
(ecoTEC plus combination boilers only) or via a separate
filling point fitted at a convenient position on the heating circuit. The connection must be removed when filling
is completed. Where local Water Authority regulation
does not allow temporary connection, a sealed system
filler pump with break tank must be used. The heating
system will not be filled automatically from the domestic hot water side. (Alternative methods of filling sealed
systems are given in BS 5449).
3.10.4 Pressure gauge
This is factory fitted to the boiler and indicates the primary circuit pressure to facilitate filling and testing.
3.10.5 Expansion vessel
ecoTEC boilers incorporate a 10 litre expansion vessel
which is suitable for a sealed heating system with a
maximum water content of 100 litres.
If the nominal capacity of the built in expansion vessel is
not sufficient for the heating system (for instance in
case of modernisation of old open systems) an additional expansion vessel can be installed external to the boiler. It should be fitted in the return pipe as close as possible to the boiler in accordance with BS 5449: Part 1.
Guidance on the sizing of an additional expansion vessel
is given in Table 3.5.
