minimum clearance of 600mm should be provided to the front and right hand side of
the Kabin Pak to allow access for servicing.
8.3
Heating System
The heating system should be installed to HVCA current codes of practice.
Before installing the boiler the new or existing system should be thoroughly flushed to
clear all sludge or other foreign matter such as solder, steel wool and copper fillings.
We recommend that the system is cleaned out in accordance with BS 5449 and BS
7593:1992 using a suitable non-corrosive commission cleanser.
It is further recommended that a suitable corrosion inhibitor is added to the heating
system, which will not damage the synthetic rubber membrane of the expansion vessel.
8.3.1 Air Vents
An automatic air vent complete with is own check valve is fitted to the top of the heat
store and boiler heat exchanger. However it is recommended that another air vent is
fitted at the highest point in the system.
8.3.2 Drain Cock
Drain cock(s) should be fitted to the lowest points in the system to enable the system
to be fully drained. A drain cock has also been fitted to the heat store and boiler heat
exchanger.
