INSTRUCTIONS FOR
THE INSTALLER
3.1 -
GENERAL WARNINGS
WARNING!
This boiler has to be destined for the use for
which it has been expressively designed for.
Any other use shall be considered improper
and therefore dangerous.
This boiler is designed to heat water at a
temperature inferior to boiling point at an
atmospheric pressure.
WARNING!
These appliances are exclusively designed
to be installed inside adequate sitings.
Therefore these appliances must not be
installed and operated outdoors. An outdoor
installation could cause malfunctioning and
could be dangerous. For external
installations, it is recommended to use
appliances which are specifically designed
and predisposed for this purpose.
Before installing the boiler the following points
have to be carried out by a competent engineer:
a) The whole system should be thoroughly
flushed in order to remove any residual dirt
or grime which could compromise correct
boiler operation.
b) Check that the boiler has been preset for
operating with the gas type available.
This is verifiable via the indication on the
packaging and on the data badge;
c) Check that the chimney/flue pipe has an
adequate draught, does not have any
constrictions, and that no other appliance’s
flue outlets have been fitted, unless the
chimney is serving more than one heating
appliance, according to the specific
standards and regulations in force. The
connection between the boiler and
chimney/flue outlet can be made only after
this verification has been carried out.
WARNING!
In rooms where aggressive vapours or dust
is present the appliance must operate
independently from the air present in the
boiler’s location room!
WARNING!
The appliance must be installed by a qualified
engineer, who complies to the technical-
professional requirements according to the
law 46/90 and whom, under his own
responsibility, guarantees the compliance of
the standards according to the latest
regulations.
WARNING!
The appliance must be installed only on a
vertical flat wall, made of non combustible
material.
The appliance must be positioned so that at
least the minimum operational and servicing
clearances are provided.
NOTE:
The boiler must be connected to a heating system
which is compatible to its performance and
output.
