Plumbing Advice

 

 

Boiler installations should only be carried out by qualified heating engineers who 
hold a HETAS wet systems certificate or equivalent. A site survey prior to 
commencing installation is highly recommended to identify any potential problem 
areas. 

 

 
The stove is fitted with four 1” female pipe connections as shown below. It is important to 
note that the boiler on this appliance is one singular open vessel so it is perfectly possible 
to only use two connections (and cap the others off). 
 
 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The top connections are the flow and bottom connections return. It is good practice to use 
diagonal opposites to promote good flow around the boiler e.g. top left flow and bottom 
right return. 
 

Please note this appliance is not suitable for “DIY” installation therefore only 
general guidance is given in this section as your installer will already be familiar 
with open vented boiler installation (including best plumbing practices and building 
regulations).
