PRE -
INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: Debris from the system can
damage the boiler and reduce efficiency.
Failure to comply with the guidelines for
the use of water treatment with the appliance will invalidate the appliance warranty.
BEFORE CLEANING THE SYSTEM:
ENSURE THE SYSTEM AND PIPEWORK
IS IN GOOD WORKING ORDER
KEEP THE EXISTING BOILER/
CIRCULATING PUMP WHERE POSSIBLE
OR USE A POWER FLUSHING MACHINE
TO AID THE CLEANSING PROCEDURE
BEFORE INSTALLING A NEW BOILER.
CLEANING THE PRIMARY SYSTEM:
IMPORTANT: ARTIFICIALLY SOFTENED
WATER MUST NOT BE USED TO FILL THE
CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEM
• Fill the system with cold water and check
for leaks.
• Open all drain cocks and drain the system.
• Close drain cocks and add a suitable
flushing agent at the correct strength for
the system condition in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Circulate the flushing agent before the
boiler is fired up.
• Run the boiler/system at normal operating
temperature as directed by the manufacturer
of the flushing agent.
• Drain and thoroughly flush the system to
remove the flushing agent and debris.
IMPORTANT: All the following Pre-Installation sections must be read and
requirements met before starting boiler or flue installation.
CAUTION: ISOLATE THE MAINS SUPPLIES BEFORE STARTING ANY WORK AND
OBSERVE ALL RELEVANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
CLEANING PRIMARY SYSTEMS
MAINS SUPPLY
ELECTRIC SUPPLY:
• Supply: 230V - 50Hz,
50 watts not including pump.
• Cable: PVC insulated 0.75mm
2
(24 x 0.2mm)
temperature rated to 90°C.
• External 3A fuse to BS1362.
• The appliance must be earthed.
• Mains supply to the boiler and system wiring
centre must be through one common fused
double pole isolator situated adjacent to the
appliance.
• Wiring must comply with IEE wiring regulations
and any local regulations which may apply to
fixed wiring to a stationary appliance.
GAS SUPPLY:
• Boilers using NG must be connected to a
governed meter.
• LPG boilers must be connected to a
regulator.
• Installation and connection of the gas supply
to the boiler must be in accordance with
BS6891.
• The meter or regulator and pipework to the
meter must be checked, preferably by the
gas supplier, to ensure it is in good working
order and can meet the gas flow and
pressure requirements in addition to the
demand from any other appliance being
served. This does not include the pipework
from the meter to the boiler.
GAS SUPPLY PIPE SIZING:
12 & 15 Ri MODELS
Provided that the correct gas supply working
pressure and gas rate can be achieved
(see technical data table page 4
commissioning section, page 30,
also refer to BS 6891)
Then it may be possible to reduce the gas
supply pipe diameter to 15mm.
Generally speaking, the appliance would
need to be within 3 to 4 metres of the gas
meter. However, this will depend on the distribution pipe size and route.
This appliance must not be connected
to a three phase supply.
•
•
18 & 24 Ri MODELS
Under no circumstances should the size
of the gas supply pipe be less than 22mm.

WATER SYSTEMS & PIPEWORK
PLASTIC PIPEWORK & UNDER FLOOR
HEATING:
• Any plastic pipework must have a polymeric
barrier with 600mm (minimum) length of
copper pipe connected to the boiler.
• Plastic pipework used for underfloor heating
must be correctly controlled with a
thermostatic blending valve limiting the
temperature of the circuits to approx. 50°C.
CONNECTIONS/VALVES:
• All system connections, taps and mixing
valves must be capable of sustaining a
pressure up to 3 bar.
• Radiator valves should conform to
BS2767:10.
• All other valves should conform to BS1010.
• On new installations TRV’s must be used on
all radiators except where a room thermostat
is sited. On all installations TRV’s should at
least be fitted in the sleeping areas. See note
below on open radiator/bypass
• A drain cock is required at the lowest point
on the system.
• An air vent is required at the highest point on
the system.
S and Y PLAN SYSTEM:
NOTE: Generally a bypass is not necessary
on a Y plan system as one of the
ports is open to flow.
A Static Head - Minimum static head 250mm
measured from the highest point in the heating
system (top surface of the appliance or highest
point in the heating system) to the water level in

C Primary Cold Feed (15mm minimum)
D Diverter Valve and Zone Valves

NOTE: A drain cock should be fitted at the
lowest point of the heating circuit
and beneath the appliance.
FULLY PUMPED SEALED SYSTEM:
• The CH sealed system must be filled using a
WRAS approved filling loop or comply with
the diagram opposite for System fill
• Do not use galvanised pipes or radiators.

CONDENSATE PIPEWORK
Fitting an external air break
Use the situation opposite when a rain water
down pipe is used to dispose of condensate
and the down pipe goes directly into an existing
sewer that carries both rainwater and foul
water.
An air break must be installed in the 32/43 mm
pipework, between the boiler condensate outlet
and the drainpipe, outside the property, to avoid
flooding during adverse weather conditions.
CONDENSATE PIPEWORK:
The condensate pipe must be a minimum of
22 mm Ø plastic pipe.
The condensate pipework must fall at
least 50 mm per metre towards the outlet
and should take the shortest practicable
route.
The pipework must follow one of the options
shown opposite.
Wherever possible the condensate
discharge pipe work should be routed and
terminated internally. Should this not be
possible, and the only available route is
external, the following conditions should be
observed:
External pipe work
Pipe work length should be kept to a
minimum and the route as vertical as
possible.
Where pipe work is subjected to extreme
cold or wind chill, a weather proof insulation
should be used.
Alternatively the condensate pipework
could be increased to a minimum
diameter of 32 mm without the
requirement to insulate.h
IMPORTANT:
• Ensure there are no
blockages in the pipe run
• Care should be taken when
siting a soak-away to avoid
obstructing existing services
• Condensate waste must not
be terminated into a septic
tank or cesspit
Condensate soakaway
The condensate drainage pipe may be run
above or below the ground to the soakaway.
The example shown opposite runs above
ground level.
The soakaway must use a 100mm diameter
plastic tube with two rows of three 12 mm
holes on 25 mm centres and 50 mm from the
bottom of the tube. The holes must face away
from the house.
The tube must be surrounded by at least 100
mm of limestone chippings to a depth of
400mm.

The Greenstar series has the option of two horizontal RSF (60/100 telescopic and
80/125) flue systems and two vertical RSF (60/100 or 80/125) flue systems:
The systems have different maximum flue lengths
This page shows various fluing options with the straight flue lengths required to
achieve the maximum flue length. Note that:
• each 90° bend used is equivalent to 2 metres of straight flue
• each 45° bend used is equivalent to 1 metre of straight flue
NOTE: Plume management kits are available for the 60/100 horizontal flue option.
Refer to the manual supplied with the Plume management kits for complete
installation instructions

• The flue must be fitted and terminated in
accordance with the recommendations of
BS5440 : Part 1.
• The flue must not cause an obstruction.
• Discharge and any noise from the flue outlet
must not cause a nuisance.
• Flue gases have a tendency to plume and in
certain weather conditions a white plume of
condensation will be discharged from the
flue outlet. Where this could be a nuisance,
for example, near security lighting, an alternate position should be found.
• The air inlet/outlet duct and the terminal of
the boiler must not be closer than 25mm to
any combustible material.
Detailed recommendations on protection of
combustible materials are given in
BS 5440: Part 1
• A protective terminal guard must be fitted if
the terminal is 2m or less above a surface to
which people have access.
The guard must be spaced equally (minimum 50 mm) around the flue and fixed to
the wall with plated screws. See Contact
Information (inside front cover).
