DESCRIPTION
The hot water performance of the appliances
is shown in Figure 8. The flow rates and
corresponding maximum water volumes drawn
off and quoted in Table 1 assume normal
dynamic water pressure and adequate flow to
the property. The mixed flow temperature will
provide a 35°C rise when water is drawn off
at up to 35 l/min as shown, if the maximum
water volume is not exceeded.
For the nominal 35°C temperature rise, the
maximum hourly rate of the 20kW and 30kW
models is 550 litres and 780 litres respectively.

HOT WATER PERFORMANCE
APPLIANCE LOCATION
The following limitations MUST be observed when siting the boiler:
1. The appliance is room sealed and can be located in any room/compartment
in a domestic property. The appliance is essentially quiet but does
incorporate a fan/pumps. The chosen position should bear this in mind
and not be one which is particularly sensitive to noise.
2. The boiler is not suitable for external installation. The position selected for
installation should be within the building, unless otherwise protected by a
suitable enclosure, and MUST allow adequate space for installation, servicing,
and operation of the appliance, and for air circulation around it.
3. This position MUST allow for the flue and air inlet system to be fitted in its
correct position.
4. The boiler must be installed on a flat surface which is capable of supporting the
weight of the appliance and any ancillary equipment.
5. If the boiler is to be fitted in a timber framed building it should be fitted in
accordance with the British Gas publication 'Guide for Gas Installations Timber
Frame Housing', Reference IGE/UP/7:1998. If in doubt, advice must be sought
from the Local Gas Supplier.
6. A compartment used to enclose the appliance MUST be designed and
constructed specifically for this purpose. An existing cupboard, or compartment,
may be used provided it is modified accordingly. BS 6798 gives details of
the essential features of cupboard/compartment design, including airing
cupboards.
7. It is sensible to put sound deadening material (felt) between the boiler and
the floor to absorb any vibration from the pumps/fan etc.
