Installing the boiler
■
The appliance must be installed
exclusively on a flat vertical solid
wall capable of supporting its
weight.
■
The boiler should be fitted within the
building unless otherwise protected by
a suitable enclosure i.e. garage or
outhouse. (the boiler may be fitted
inside
a
cupboard,
(see
3.4.1
“Compartment Ventilation”).
■
If the boiler is sited in an unheated
enclosure then it is recommended to
leave the power on to give frost
protection (frost protection is active
even with On/Off switch in Off position).
■
If the boiler is installed in a room
containing a bath or shower reference
must be made to the relevant
requirements. The appliance controls
or any related switch or control should
not be within reach while using the bath
or shower.
In GB this is the current I.E.E. Wiring
regulations and Building Regulations;
In order to allow access to the interior of
the boiler for maintenance purposes, it is
important that the necessary clearances
indicated in figure 1 are respected. To
make the installation easier, the boiler is
supplied with a template to enable the pipe
connections to be positioned prior to fixing
the appliance to the wall.
To install the boiler, proceed as follows
(see fig. 2):
a. Use a spirit level (of not less than 25
mm long) to mark a horizontal line on
the wall where the boiler is to be fitted.
b. Position the top of the template along
the line drawn with the level, respecting
the distances indicated. Then mark the
centres of the positions of the two wall-
plugs or anchors. Finally, mark the
positions of the water and gas pipes.
c. Remove the template and install the
domestic hot and cold water pipes, the
gas supply pipe and the central heating
pipes using the fittings supplied with the boiler.
Fix the boiler to the wall using the wall plugs or bracket and connect the pipes.
Compartment Ventilation
Where the appliance is installed in a compartment, no air vents are required.
BS 5440:Part 2 refers to room sealed appliances installed in compartments. The appliance will run sufficiently cool
without ventilation.
