2 3 Installation premises
The thermal module
POWER MAX
can be installed in rooms
that are permanently ventilated and equipped with suitably
sized ventilation openings in line with Technical Standards
and Regulations applicable to the installation site.
b
When installing the boiler, allow sufficient space
around it to access all safety and control devices and
to permit easy maintenance.
b
Check that the electric protection level of the appli-
ance is suitable for features of the room where it is
installed.
b
Make sure that comburent air is not contaminated by
substances containing chlorine or fluorine (elements
found in sprays, paints, detergents etc.).
a
Do not obstruct or restrict the air vents in the room
where the boiler is installed. A free air supply is es-
sential for correct combustion.
a
It is forbidden to leave flammable containers and
substances in the room where the thermal module is
installed.

appliance are shown in the figure.
≥ 1 m
≥ 0,85 m
≥ 0,4 m
≥ 0,5 m
≥ 0,5 m
The minimum surface of ventilation openings is 3,000 cm

for gas fuel heating systems.
2 4 Installation in older systems and
systems requiring modernisation
When installing these boilers in older systems or systems
requiring modernisation, always perform the following
checks:
- Make sure that the flue is able to withstand the tem-
perature of the combustion gases and that it has been
designed and made in compliance with applicable
standards. The flue must also be as straight as pos-
sible, sealed, insulated and not blocked or choked.
See Paragraph "Discharge of combustion products"
for any additional information.
- Make sure that the electrical supply system has been
installed by a qualified electrician in compliance with
applicable standards
- Make sure that the fuel feed line and any storage tank
are made and installed in compliance with applicable
standards
- Make sure that expansion vessels are big enough to
contain the additional volume generated by thermal
expansion
- Make sure that the flow rate, head and direction of
flow of the pumps are suitable and correct
- The system has been washed, cleaned of mud and
grime and water seals have been checked
- A treatment system is fitted when the supply/refill
water has values other than those indicated in Para-
graph "Water quality requirements"
b
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for dam-
age caused by incorrectly constructed flue systems.
