Installation and Servicing
GENERAL
The boiler does not normally need a bypass but at least
some radiators on the heating circuit, of load of at least 10%
of the minimum boiler output must be provided with twin
lockshield valves so that this minimum heating load is
always available. See note regarding thermostatic radiator on
pages 8.
Note.
Systems incorporating zone valves which could completely
cut off the flow through the system, must be wired such that
the boiler will not fire or continue to fire when this occurs.

SYSTEM BALANCING
BALANCING
1.
Set the programmer to ON.
Close the manual or thermostatic valves on all
radiators, leaving the twin lockshield valves (on the
radiators referred to above) in the OPEN position.
Turn up the room thermostat and adjust these
lockshield valves to give boiler flow and return
temperatures not more than 20
o
C apart.
These valves should now be left as set.
2.
Open all manual or thermostatic radiator valves and
adjust the lockshield valves on the remaining
radiators, to give around 11
o
C temperature drop at
each radiator.
3.
Adjust the room thermostat and programmer to
NORMAL settings.

unsuitable additives
MUST
be removed by thorough
cleansing.

In hard water areas, treatment to prevent lime scale
may be necessary - however, the use of artificially
softened water is
NOT
permitted.
