The Brivis Network controls within the heater will automatically adapt the heaters output to suit the
number of outlets that you have open. Check the Outlet Guide (see page 8) for the appropriate number of
outlets you must have open for best performance.

Wall Controller Operation.

At first glance, the Networker might look complicated, but it really is very simple. It can be as basic or as
sophisticated as you need, or want it to be.

The Brivis Networker is at the heart of an amazingly sophisticated electronic system, but it can be as
simple to use as any manual wall controller.

To learn more about its operation, you will find the Networker booklet in your owners pack.

Outlet Guide.

For all systems, a minimum number of outlets a) must remain fully open (this includes both the outlet grille
and the damper in the duct), if the heater is to operate properly without overheating.

Similarly, ceiling systems have a maximum number of outlets b), that can remain fully open, to ensure
that the velocity through each outlet is sufficient.

These maximum ceiling outlet figures relate to fully open outlets, however, the system will operate
effectively with more outlets open, if it has been properly balanced.

There is no maximum number for floor outlets, so the chart below lists the usual number of floor outlets c)
for each heater.

Heater Maintenance.

The frequency of cleaning will depend on local conditions, so an inspection should be performed
regularly.

Check that the power lead and gas pipe are in good condition. If they are damaged, call Brivis for
assistance.
The RETURN AIR FILTER (if fitted) which is located in the return air grille requires regular cleaning, and
should be checked every fortnight. A blocked filter will seriously affect the heater's performance and
economical operation.

On High Efficiency External heaters ensure that:

The flue terminal is in place whenever the unit is operating.
The top panel is only ever removed by authorised service personnel or installers.
The air intake, (located at either end of the heater's roof panel) and flue terminal, are clear of leaves or
obstructions.
The condensate tube is clear. A blockage will seriously affect performance, and may shut the heater
