The completed Benchmark Checklist will be required in the event of any guarantee work and may be required by the local Building Control Inspector.
BENCHMARK STANDARD
The Benchmark initiative is a code of practice to encourage the correct installation, commissioning and servicing of domestic central heating boilers and system equipment.
A checklist/logbook is supplied with every boiler and can be found at the back of the Installation, Commissioning and Servicing Instructions. This is a vital document that needs to be completed by the installer at the time of installation. It confirms that the boiler has been installed and commissioned according to the manufacturer's instructions.
The log book provides space for the recording of regular servicing of the boiler/heating system and this can become a valuable document when, for example, you wish to sell the property. The log book will show a potential purchaser that the heating system has received regular professional maintenance and servicing during its lifetime.
The Benchmark initiative aims to:
• Raise standards among professional installers
• Build and maintain high safety standards in the industry
• Improve customer satisfaction levels
• Make a contribution to the nation's commitment t o climate change

3.5 ECO indicator

By default the boiler is set to ECO mode, so if the mains supply to the boiler is interrupted, the ECO mode will become active. Press the ECO button until the light goes out if you require the boiler to be in Pre-heat mode. Refer to the explanation below for ECO and Pre-heat modes
You can choose to run your boiler in Pre-heat mode or in ECO mode.
To activate pre-heat mode:
▶ Press the ECO button [7] until it is no longer illuminated.
When the ECO button [7] is NOT lit the boiler is in pre-heat mode for hot water.
Pre-heat will ensure the storage tank temperature is maintained and will allow high flow rates of hot water to be drawn off at taps.
Hot water will now be available at the tap almost immediately as the boiler constantly maintains a tank of hot water ready for use.
To activate ECO mode:
▶ Press the ECO button [7] until it is illuminated.
When the ECO button is illuminated, the boiler runs in ECO mode and pre-heat is not available.
When the ECO button [7] is lit the storage tank pre-heat function is turned off, but the boiler will supply hot water as a normal Combi boiler.
This means that the flow rates at taps may have to be reduced to obtain satisfactory hot water temperatures.

Maintaining your Boiler

6 Maintaining your Boiler

Your new gas-fired boiler represents a long term investment in a reliable, high quality product. To clean, wipe the boiler casing with a soft clean cloth. Please do not use chemical cleaning products which may damage the paint finish. In order to realise its maximum working life, and to ensure it continues to operate at peak efficiency and performance, it is essential that your boiler receives regular annual servicing and maintenance checks during and beyond the guarantee period from a competent registered gas engineer, such as a Worcester service engineer or other Gas Safe registered engineer. If your Greenstar gas-fired boiler should fail to operate correctly or requires servicing, please contact the Worcester, Bosch Group Appointments Team (see rear cover for details). Details of the boiler including the Gas Council number can be found on the front cover of these User Instructions and on the boiler identification label on the boiler fascia. The Gas Council number is also listed on the front cover of your Installation, Commissioning and Servicing Instructions.

7Fault Finding

In the event that the boiler stops functioning or does not perform as expected, you can carry out a few simple checks. The checks listed in the table below detail some of the possible causes.

Fault Finding

7.1 Error codes 7.2 Extreme cold weather

When calling Worcester, Bosch Group, you may be asked for the error code. This table is for you to help identify the possible cause of the fault. ▶ Do not try to rectify any of the faults listed
below by yourself.
▶ Contact a Worcester, Bosch Group service
engineer, or other Gas Safe registered engineer.
Error code Description
A7 Hot water NTC sensor defective.
A8 Break in communication to weather
compensating clip-in control or Greenstar Comfort II RF
b1 Code plug not detected.

d5 Condensate pump fault
E2 CH flow NTC sensor defective.
E9 Safety temp. limiter in CH flow has tripped.
EA Flame not detected.
Check, if it is safe to do so:
• if gas is on in the house
• for frozen condensate pipe
• for blocked flue outlet
F0 Internal error.
F7 Flame detected even though boiler switched
off.
FA Flame detected after gas shut off.
Fd Reset button pressed by mistake.
SE Service required
U1 Boiler flow temperature is too high,
the boiler will shut down until it has cooled
U2
down
U3
In some instances where the condensate pipe work is run externally or in an unheated area, such as a garage, the condensate pipe work can be at risk of freezing, even if well insulated.
A frozen/blocked condensate pipe will cause the boiler to shut down.
WARNING: Falling hazard! Failure to follow this guidance may result in personal injury.
▶ Only attempt to thaw a condense pipe that
is at ground level, and that is easily accessible.
▶ Never attempt to thaw a condense pipe
that is at height.
CAUTION: Pipe damage ▶ DO NOT use boiling water to thaw the
condensate pipe!
CAUTION: Slip hazard ▶ Ensure that the subsequent freezing of any
water does not result in a slip hazard
If the condensate pipe has frozen:
▶ Locate the blockage.
It is likely that the pipe is frozen at the most exposed point outside the building or where there is an obstruction to flow. This could be the open end of the pipe, at a bend or elbow, or where there is a sag in the pipe in which condensate can collect. The location of the blockage should be identified as closely as possible before taking further action.
▶ Thaw the frozen pipe.
The pipe can be thawed by applying a hot water bottle, a microwaveable heating pack (the sort used for muscular aches and pains) or a cloth soaked in hot water to the exterior of the pipe, close to the point of blockage. Hot water, but not boiling, can also be poured onto the pipe from a watering can or similar container.
▶ Once the pipe has been thawed the boiler must be reset,
press the reset button for five seconds and wait two to three minutes for the boiler to restart.
▶ If the boiler does not restart, contact Worcester, Bosch
Group Appointments Team (see back cover for details).
▶ Contact your installer in order to find a permanent solution
to the problem.

Tips on energy saving

10 Tips on energy saving

Heating economically

The boiler provides a high level of comfort whilst keeping gas consumption low and so minimising the environmental impact.
The gas supply to the boiler‘s burner is regulated according to the demand for heat. The boiler operates with a low flame if the dem and for h eat redu ces . The tec hnic al te rm f or th is p roce ss i s modulating control.
Modulating control reduces temperature fluctuations and provides an even distribution of heat throughout the home. This means that the boiler may stay on for relatively long periods of time but will use less gas than a boiler that continually switches on and off.

Central heating systems with room thermostat/ thermostatic radiator valves

With modern heating systems designed around a 20 °C heat loss across the system, the optimum setting for a condensing boiler will be approximately between the first and second segment on the central heating temperature control. The system must be balanced correctly and the radiators may need upgrading.
The temperature of each room can be set individually (except primary room with the room thermostat) using the thermostatic radiator valves.

Room thermostats

Reducing the setting of the room thermostat by 1°C can reduce fuel consumption by up to 10%.

New control systems

Upgrade your heating control system if necessary with the latest equipment available.

Roof insulation

Around 30% of the heat loss from a property is through the roof. Replace any old insulation with new insulati on, preferably of around 200mm thickness or more.

Window frames

Single glazed windows, particularly those with steel frames, can lose a great deal of heat. Consideration should be given to replacement with PVCu or wooden framed double glazed units.

Radiators

If a radiator is sited underneath a window, its performance will be affected if the curtains are allowed to drape over the radiator. Shelves fitted above or in front of the radiator should also be avoided.
It is advisable to manually adjust all thermostatic radiator valves every 2 - 3 months to prevent them sticking. Ensure radiator valves are correctly set and not damaged.

Draughts

Try to ensure that draughts around doors, windows, letter boxes and keyholes etc. are reduced by using a suitable draught excluder.
WARNING: Air vents ▶ Do not block or seal any air vents that are
installed to ensure that the cent ral heating boiler operates safely.

Curtains

Lined curtains, or heavier full length curtains can provide excellent insulation. However, always ensure that the curtains do not drape over radiators.

11 Glossary

Central heating systems
All radiators must be heated at an even rate. If the top of a radiator is at a lower temperature than the bottom then it should be bled by releasing air through the bleed screw at the top of the radiator. Ask your installer to show you how this is done.
This boiler is fitted to a sealed system. Should water leaks be found or if excessive bleeding is required, then a service engineer must be contacted to inspect the installation and rectify any fault.
Only additives that are co mpatible with aluminium may be used in the system. Any incompatible additive used will invalidate the guarantee.
Pluming and condensate drain
This is a condensing boiler and the flue terminal will, at times give out a plume of water vapour. This is quite normal.
The boiler produces condensate which is discharged regularly from within the boiler via a plastic pipe to a drain point. This pipe must not be blocked or altered in any way.
Room thermostat / programmer
A room thermostat and a twin channel programmer must be fitted to control the central heating and hot water. This controls the timing of the central heating and hot water, preventing the boiler from firing unnecessarily. If pre-heat mode is used, then this mode can be timed to be on during times of high demand. Refer to the instructions supp lied with the thermostat and twin channel programmer for further information.
Thermostatic radiator valves
Thermostatic radiator valves must be fitted in sleeping accommodation. It is recommended that this type of valve is fitted to all but one of the radiators. The remaining radiator, where the room thermostat is located, must be uncontrolled and left open.
Pump over run function
After the boiler has finished a demand for central heating or hot water, the pump may continue to run for a short while to dissipate the heat from within the boiler.
Pump anti-seizure
If there has been no heating demand for 24 hours, the boiler will run the system pump for a few seconds to reduce the possibility of pump seizure during long periods of inactivity.
