2.1 Location
The boiler is not suitable for fitting outdoors.
Any electrical switch or boiler control using mains electricity
must be positioned so that a person using a bath or shower
cannot touch it.
The boiler must be mounted on a flat wall, which is sufficiently
robust to take its weight, refer to Table 1.
2.2 Clearances
The boiler should be positioned so that at least the minimum
operational and servicing clearances are provided, see diagram
2.1.
Additional clearances may be beneficial around the boiler for
installation and servicing.
For flue installations where external access is not practicable,
consideration should be given for the space required to insert
the flue internally, which may necessitate clearance larger than
those specified in diagram 2.1.
2.4 Timber Frame Buildings
If the boiler is to be installed in a timber building it should be fitted
in accordance with the Institute of Gas Engineers document
IGE/UP/7/1998. If in doubt seek advice from the local gas
undertaking or Hepworth Heating Ltd.
2.5 Room Ventilation
The boiler is room sealed, so when it is installed in a room or
space, a permanent air vent is not required.
2.6 Cupboard or Compartment Ventilation
Due to the high efficiency and hence low casing temperature of
this boiler, cupboard or compartment ventilation is not necessary.
Leave existing air vents.
