INSTALLATION

Heating/primary Systems

The boiler and primary/heating systems should 
be sized and installed in accordance with BS 
5449.

Safety

Stainless Lite is fitted with a Combined 
Temperature/Pressure Relief Valve to cope 
with any increase in system temperature and 
pressure above the design limitations, when 
used with boilers up to 45kW output, which 
is the maximum allowed by section G3 of the 
Building Regulations.  
The primary water temperatures should be 
controlled as outlined below.

Primary Circuit

It is essential that the circuit between the boiler 
and the Stainless Lite is pumped.  The motorised 
zone valve supplied should be fi tted adjacent 
to the unit and controlled by the cylinder 
thermostat supplied.  The thermostat and 
motorised valve must be wired so that they both 
switch off should an overheat situation develop.  
It is important to follow the wiring diagram in 
the Wiring Section of these instructions.

Sealed Primary Circuit

Any boiler used must be fi tted with an over 
temperature cut-out.

Unvented primary circuits may be filled 
or replenished by means of a temporary 
connection between the circuit and a supply 
pipe provided a ‘Listed’ double check valve 
or some other no less effective backflow 
prevention device is permanently connected 
at the inlet to the circuit and the temporary 
connection is removed after use.

Alternatively, a CA device can be used, which will 
allow the system to be permanently connected 
to the cold mains supply. The primary system 
can then be topped up, when required, in the 
same way as an open vented system fi tted with 
an F&E Cistern.
