PREPARATION
1. Load Check
A load check should be taken into consideration when
installing high output kW boilers.
2. Boiler location
The boiler must be fitted on a wall that will provide an
adequate fixing, and should be fitted in a location that the
boiler and pipe-work are not subject to frost and damp
conditions.
3. Central heating (design & installation)
Detailed recommendations are given in BS EN 12828:2003,
BS 6700: 2006+A1: 2009 and CP 342-2:1974
Pipes forming part of the useful heating surface should be
insulated to prevent any potential heat loss or frost damage
(BS 6700:1997).
Drain valves should be fitted at the lowest point of the system
pipe work in an accessible position.
Drain valves should be in accordance with BS 2879: 1980
and copper tube to BS EN 1057: 1996. is recommended.
LOCATION
The boiler can be installed in almost any location within a do-
mestic or commercial property, however consideration should be
given to future maintenance. Never leave the boiler switched off
if there is a danger of having temperatures below 0°C in the room
where it is located.
We recommend that a minimum clearance of 400 mm should
be allocated for: the removal of the front cover, adequate access
to the boiler plumbing and the internal electrical connections. A
50 mm allowance should be made at either side of the boiler to
allow free flow air into the boiler case and allow access to screws
on the boiler case.
THE BOILER MUST BE INSTALLED IN THE UPRIGHT POSI-
TION, FAILURE TO DO SO WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRAN-
