6.1
Instructions
Before choosing a site for the appliance, carefully read the
safety warnings and installation manual.
• Ensure the wall to which the appliance will be mounted on is
structurally safe in order to support the weight of the appliance.
• Ensure that the space that the appliance is to be installed
within allows the appliance to be installed and the clearances
maintained. This will ensure that the connections to the water,
gas and fl ue can be accessed and inspected (see chapter
Clearances).
• Explain these requirements to the appliance user.
• Do not install the appliance above another appliance that
could damage it (for example a cooker).
• Also ensure the fl ue terminates in a location where the air
required for combustion is not contaminated by excess debris
or corrosive emissions.
• The boiler must be fi tted inside the property and exposed pipe
work may need to be protected from frost by fi tting insulation
and/or a frost thermostat.

Clearances
• The clearances specifi ed are the minimum required to allow
general service and maintenance of the appliance.
• To allow periodic maintenance, ensure the distances
indicated on the diagram.
Additional clearances may be benefi cial around the boiler for

For fl ue installations where external access is not practicable,
consideration should be given for the space required to insert
the fl ue from inside the property, which may necessitate
clearances larger than those specifi ed in diagram below.

A removable compartment door can be placed a minimum 5
mm in front of appliance. A clearance of 600 mm is required
from a fi xed surface.
The boiler and fl ue are suitable for installation onto and through
combustible materials provided that:
- Minimum 5mm clearance is maintained around the
circumference of the fl ue (air intake).
- The appliance may be installed on a combustible wall
provided that it is of adequate strength to support the boiler.
- The minimum clearances from the boiler case are maintained.

Ventilation
Room Ventilation
The boiler is room sealed so a permanent air vent is not required.
Cupboard or Compartment Ventilation
Due to the high effi ciency and low casing temperature of this
boiler, cupboard or compartment ventilation is not necessary.
• Existing ventilation should be investigated for its purpose
before removing.
