ELECTRIC

ELECTRIC
All Boilers when in use have electrical supply of 240V (enough
to endanger life) connected to the Panel and Burner.
Always isolate the boilers during cleaning, servicing and repair.

EXTERNAL BOILERS

In wet weather conditions due consideration should be given to
the metal casing and electrical current within the Boiler casing.
Never open the front door of External Wall Mounted Boilers in
conditions such that water could come in contact with any
electrical component causing an immediate danger to life.

Health and Safety at Work Act 1974
Consumer Protection Act 1987
COSHH Regulations 1988
The following information is given as a requirement of the
above legislation.
Great care is taken by Thermecon Boilers to ensure that Boilers
are designed and manufactured to meet general safety
requirements when properly used and installed as
recommended in this manual.
It is the responsibility of Users and Engineers to ensure that
adequate protective clothing and glasses are worn when
working on the Boiler.

FUEL

KEROSINE GAS & OIL FUELS (MINERAL OILS)

1. The effect of minerals oils on the skin vary according to the

duration of exposure.

2. The lighter fractions also remove the protective grease

normally present on the surface of the skin rendering the
skin dry, liable to crack and more prone to damage caused
by cuts and abrasions.

3. Skin rashes (oil Acne). Immediately seek medical attention

for any rash, wart or sore developing on any part of the

body, particularly on the scrotum.

4. As far as possible avoid any skin contact with mineral oil or

clothing contaminated with mineral oil.

5. Never breathe any mineral oil vapours. Do not fire the

Burner in the open i.e. out of the Boiler as misfire will cause
unburnt oil vapours.

6. Barrier cream containing lanolin such as Rosalex Antisolv,

is highly recommended together with a strict routine of
personal cleansing.

7. Under no circumstances should mineral oils be taken

internally - never suck or blow a pipe!
