Foreword & IntroduCtIon
We would like to thank you for purchasing a
high efficiency Firebird domestic central heating
boiler. This instruction manual is produced
for the reference and guidance of qualified
installation engineers such as those who are
OFTeC registered. eU legislation governs the
manufacture, operation and efficiency of all
domestic central heating oil boilers. Our boilers
and burners are supplied as matched units,
tested and approved to OFTeC Standard OFS
al00.
Firebird Heating Solutions are full manufacturing
members of OFTeC (Oil Firing Technical
association) and are participating in its boiler
testing and approvals programme to comply
with OFS a100 and eC efficiency Directive.
You should ensure that all installation,
servicing and commissioning works are
carried out by a competent person, such as
one registered by OFTEC. It should be noted
that it is the responsibility of the Installer/
Householder to ensure that the boiler is
properly commissioned. Failure to do so may
invalidate the boiler warranty.
SErvICIng
The boiler requires servicing on an annual basis
to ensure it maintains its efficiency, continues
to perform reliably and as a regular check on
its built-in safety features. It is important that
servicing should be conducted by a competent
engineer, such as one who is OFTEC trained
and registered.
All appropriate OFTEC manuals and BS
Standards should be studied and their
requirements adhered to and used in
conjunction with these instructions. This
manual includes a list of some BS Standards
and Building regulations.
the burner is factory set for use with
diesel 35 second gas oil. the burner will
require commissioning as described in the
commissioning section of this manual due to
flue configurations and load conditions.
The Firebird System boiler range is based on
the “S” range of boilers. all boilers in this range
are designed and manufactured to meet all
the latest european standards and the thermal
efficiency requirement of the Boiler (efficiency)
Regulations 1993. This boiler can be fitted
to a conventional flue or easily adapted to a
room sealed unit by using a Firebird matched
balanced flue kit.
Clean combustion with kitchen quiet operation
is assured by a highly efficient matching
pressure jet burner which produces very low
Nox emissions.
all Firebird oil boilers have a two year
comprehensive warranty which extends to five
years on the boiler shell (see terms & conditions
of warranty section for more details).
