Pipework
1. The sizes of flow and return pipes from the boiler should
be determined by normal methods, according to the
requirements of the system. The connection to the boiler is
22mm compression fitting.
2. Due to space requirements at the rear of the tap bracket,
pipework should comprise of solder fittings.
3. A 20 °C (36°F) drop in temperature across the system is
recommended for condensing boilers. Existing radiators may
be oversized and so allow this, but where radiator sizing is
marginal it may be advisable to retain a system temperature
drop of 11°C (20°F).
4. In systems using non-metallic pipework it is necessary to
use copper pipe for the boiler Flow and Return. The copper
must extend at least 1 metre from the boiler and include any
branches (Fig. 9).

Thermal Stores
1.
When the Baxi System 100 HE Plus is fitted in
conjunction with a thermal store, both jumpers must be
removed from the Control PCB, see Fig. 34 Section 8.7.
