The vertical flue terminal is 1.0 metre in length and cannot be
cut; therefore it may be necessary to adjust the height of the
appliance to suit or use a suitable extension.
5.6 CONNECTING THE GAS AND WATER
The appliance is supplied with an accessory pack that includes
service valves. The service valves are of the compression type.
The accessory pack contains sealing washers’ etc, for use with
the service valves. When connecting pipe work to the valves,
tighten the compression end first then insert the sealing washers
before tightening the valve to the appliance.
NOTE
It will be necessary to hold the valve with one spanner whilst
tightening with another.
5.6.1 GAS (fig. 20)
The appliance is supplied with a 15mm service valve, connect
a 15mm pipe to the inlet of the valve and tighten both nuts.
NOTE
It will be necessary to calculate the diameter of the gas supply
pipe to ensure the appliance has an adequate supply of gas.
5.6.2 FLOW & RETURN (fig. 20)
The appliance is supplied with 22mm service valves for the
flow and return connections, connect a 22mm pipe to the inlet
of each valve and tighten both nuts.
NOTE
Depending on system requirements, it may necessary to increase
the size of the flow & return pipe work after the service valve
connections.
5.6.3 COLD WATER INLET (fig. 20)
The appliance is supplied with a 15mm combined stopcock and
filling valve, connect a 15mm pipe to the inlet of the stopcock
and tighten both nuts.
5.6.4 HOT WATER OUTLET (fig. 20)
The appliance is supplied with a 15mm outlet connection, connect
a 15mm pipe to the outlet connection and tighten both nuts.
5.6.5 SAFETY VALVE (fig. 20)
Connect the safety valve connection pipe to the safety valve
outlet and tighten. The discharge pipe must have a continuous fall
away from the appliance to outside and allow any water to drain
away thereby eliminating the possibility of freezing.
The discharge pipe must terminate in a position where any water
- possibly boiling - discharges safely without causing damage or
injury, but is still visible.
