B) Where fitting of a make up vessel would 
be difficult, RE-PRESSURING of the system 
can be done. See section on FILLING. If the 
capacity of the central heating system should 
exceed 110 Litres, an additional vessel should 
be installed on the return to the combination 
boiler from the heating system (Fig. 7). 
Guidance on vessel sizing is given in (Table 
3).

 

Reference should be made to British Gas 
Publications, «Material and Installation 
Specifications for Domestic Central Heating 
and Hot Water». Draining taps should be 
at least 1/2” in BSP nominal size and be in 
accordance with BS 2879.

4.8.8

 

Installation to an existing central heating 
system.

 

The combination boiler is designed to operate 
on a sealed system only. Therefore if the 
existing system is of the open water type it will 
have to be modified to comply with BS 5376 
Part 2.

 

Before installing a new combination boiler to 
an existing system, flush out the old system 
with a recommended descaling agent.

 

It is important that the correct concentration  

        of the water treatment product is maintained 

in accordance with the manufacturers’ 
instructions. 

 

If the boiler is installed in an existing system 
any unsuitable additives 

MUST

 be removed by 

thorough cleansing. 

 

BS 7593:1992 details the steps necessary 
to clean domestic central heating system. 
Also check pipework and renew any corroded 
pipework or fittings. Valve glands must be 
repacked or replaced wherever necessary and 
any defective controls exchanged.

 4.8.9

 

WATER TREATMENT

 

 

This boiler has a secondary ALUMINIUM alloy 
heat exchanger Ravenheat recommended only 
the use of FERNOX- COPAL or SENTINEL 
X100 water treatment products, which must 
be used in accordance with the manufacturers 
instructions. For further information contact:
