Comply with the applicable stan-
dards and laws on boiler instal-
lation, which are considered an 
integral part of this handbook.

A bipolar switch must be fitted 
upstream of the boiler so that 
maintenance operations can be 
carried out safely.

The boiler mains supply must be 
protected by a differential magne-
tothermal switch with appropriate 
breaking power. 

The mains power supply must be 
properly earthed. This basic safety 
requirement is mandatory.

In case of doubt, have the wiring 
thoroughly checked by a professio-
nally qualified electrician.

The Manufacturer declines all 
liability for damage or injury 
resulting from failure to earth 
the system properly. Gas, hot 
water or heating system piping 
is not suitable for earthing.

3.2.11 Hydraulic connections

Before installing the boiler, it is 
important to clean the system 
thoroughly. This is to remove all 
impurities and particles from the 
components, which could damage 
the pump or heat exchanger. 

The heating system delivery and 
return pipes must be connected to 
the relevant G1 1/4” fittings on
the boiler.

When choosing the size of the 
pipes for the heating system, it is 
important to take account of load 
losses caused by radiators, any 

thermostat valves, radiator stop 
valves and the actual configuration 
of the system.

3.2.12 Manufacturer original 
kits

The Manufacturer supplies origi-
nal kits for installing the timer, the 
remote boiler control board and 
the temperature control. 

These kits must be installed fol-
lowing the accompanying instruc-
tions.

3.3 Filling the system 

After completion of all the system 
connections, the heating circuit 
can be filled with water.

This must be done with care as 
follows:
- Open the radiator air vents 
and check the relief valve on the 
hydraulic system.
- Gradually open the water inlet 
tap and check that the relief valves 
in the system, if there are any, are 
working properly.
- Close the radiator air vents as 
soon as water starts to come out.
- Check on the pressure gauge 
installed on the hydraulic system 
that the value is 0.8-1 bar.
- Turn off the water inlet tap and 
then release the air again through 
the radiator air vents.
- After switching on the boiler and 
after the system has reached 
the correct temperature, stop the 
pump and repeat the air relief ope-
rations. 
- Allow the system to cool down 
and then set the water pressure to 
0.8-1 bar.

WARNING
In domestic heating systems, it is 
essential to treat the water using 
specific products that are compa-
tible with multimetal systems. This 
is to optimise efficiency and safety, 
keep the system in good working  
order, ensure that ancillary equi-
pment continues to function effi-
ciently, and minimise energy con-
sumption in line with current  legal 
requirements. 

NOTE: The boiler is equipped 
with a drain cock, located in 
the front, which can be used for 
emptying the system (pic. 6).

3.4 Starting up the boiler

3.4.1 Preliminary checks

Before starting up the boiler, it is 
good practice to carry out the fol-
lowing checks.
- Make sure the flue gas pipe has 
been installed according to the 
instructions.  When the boiler is 
running there must be no leaka-
ge of combustion products from 
any of the seals.
- The supply voltage must be 230 
V- 50 Hz. 
- The system must be full of water 
(hydrometer pressare 0.8-1 bar).
- The cut-off valves on the system 
pipes must be open. 
- The fuel supply cock must by 
open.
- Check for any oil or gas leaks.
- Check that the main switch has 
been turned on.
- Check the boiler safety valve.
- Check for water leaks.

3.4.2 Switching on and off

Refer to the "User Instructions" 
for switching the boiler on and off.

3.4.3 Regulating thermal output

The burner thermal power must be 
regulated according to the boiler 
and heating system specifications.
