MAINS SUPPLY
ELECTRIC SUPPLY:
• Supply: 230V - 50Hz, 140 watts
• Cable: PVC insulated 0.75mm2(24 x 0.2mm)
temperature rated to 90°C.
• External 3A fuse to BS1362.
• The appliance must be earthed.
• This appliance must not be connected to a
three phase supply.
• IPX4D.
NOTE: this is reduced to IP20 if the
following mechanical timers are fitted:
7 716 192 036 or 7 716 192 037.
• Wiring must comply with latest IEE wiring
regulations.
GAS SUPPLY:
• Boilers using NG must be connected to a
governed meter.
• LPG boilers must be connected to a

• Installation and connection of the gas supply
to the boiler must be in accordance with
BS6891.
• Under no circumstances should the size of
the gas supply pipe be less than 22mm.
• 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.
WATER SUPPLY:
Water mains pressure:
• Minimum mains water pressure 1.3 bar 25Si,
2.0 bar 30Si, for maximum performance.
• Maximum mains fed water pressure 10 bar.
If necessary, fit a pressure reducing valve.
• Where the mains water supply has a non-
return, back flow prevention valve fitted, a
mini expansion vessel (A) should be connected to the mains water inlet pipe (B) between
the non-return valve (C) and the boiler (D) as
shown opposite.
Use in hard water areas:
Normally there is no need for water treatment to
prevent scale formation as the maximum temperature of the DHW heat exchanger is limited
in the electronic circuit.
In areas where temporary water hardness
exceeds 200ppm, consideration may need to
be given to the fitting of a scale prevention
device. In such circumstances, the advice of
the local water authority should be sought.
IMPORTANT: Non-return, back flow prevention devices (including those associated with water meters) fitted to the
mains water supply can cause a pressure build up which could damage the
boiler and other household appliances.

WATER SYSTEMS & PIPEWORK
PLASTIC PIPEWORK:
• 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.
PRIMARY SYSTEMS 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.
• Thermostatic radiator valves (TRV’s) must be
used on all radiators within the sleeping
accommodation but not the radiator where
the room thermostat is sited. This must be
fitted with lockshield valves and left open.
• A drain cock is required at the lowest point
in the system.
• An air vent is required at all the high points in
the system.
NOTE: The boiler is equipped with an automatic
internal by-pass.
SHOWERS/BIDETS:
• If a shower head can be immersed in water or
comes closer than 25mm from the top edge
of a bath or shower tray spill over level then
an anti-syphon device must be fitted to the
shower hose.
• Bidets with direct hot and cold mains water
can be used (with the approval of the local
water authority) and must be the over rim
flushing type with shrouded outlets to prevent
the fitting of hand held sprays.
IMPORTANT: ARTIFICIALLY SOFTENED
WATER MUST NOT BE USED TO FILL THE
CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEM
SEALED PRIMARY SYSTEM:
• The CH sealed system must be filled using a
WRAS approved filling loop or comply with
the diagram opposite for system fill.
• Where the system volume is more than 100
litres or exceeds 2.65 bar at maximum
heating temperature, an extra expansion
vessel (B) must be fitted as close as possible
to the appliance in the central heating return.

INSTALLATION
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 or discharge directly into a
vent stack min. 450 mm above pipe invert or
into a gully below ground but above the water
level.
• 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.he pipe run
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.
PRESSURE RELIEF PIPEWORK
PRESSURE RELIEF PIPEWORK:
• The pressure relief drain pipe (M) from the
boiler should be at least 15mm diameter
copper pipe and run downwards, away from
any electrics or other hazard, preferably
to an external drain or soakaway.
• Pipe (M) should be finished with a partial
bend, near the outlet to face the external wall
(as shown) to help prevent freezing.
L - Outside wall
O,M - Drain pipe
N - External drain
IMPORTANT: The pressure relief valve
is a safety device for the boiler and if
activated may discharge boiling water
steam through the relief valve drain
pipe.
Care should be taken when siting the
outlet pipe so that it does not cause an
obstruction or discharge above a
window, entrance or other public access
where it could cause a hazard.

FLUE OPTIONS
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.

PRE -
INSTALLATION
• 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).

IMPORTANT HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
• It is advised that two people are used to carry
the carton from the van to the point of delivery.
• Once the carton has been delivered, the outer
carton is removed first. Care should be taken
when releasing the straps. If a sharp implement
is used make sure the outer carton is not
pierced and that the implement is used in such
a way so that it may not cause personal injury.
All sharp objects must be covered or the blade
retracted after use and put away in a safe
place. The wall mounting frame, Installer
pack, template and bottom panel are now
removed. Care should be taken when lifting the
boiler from the base and the proper technique
for safe lifting of any heavy object should be
strictly observed.
Additional requirements for roof space
installation:
• The boiler should be first unpacked before
ascending ladder to loft space.
• Two sets of steps should be used.
• Two people should share the lifting of the
boiler up to the loft hatch, where the boiler is
entered into the loft space tilted and slid on its
back into the loft.
Once the appliance is removed from its
packaging check the contents against the
packing list.
Before installing appliance ensure system has
been cleaned as explained on page 9.
1. Remove straps (A) and open the top of the
boiler packaging.
2. Remove template (F) and wall mounting
frame (E) from the packaging.
3. Remove boiler bottom panel (D), front
fascia (H) and installer pack (C).
