Installation & Servicing

22 FITTING THE FLUE ASSEMBLY

A. Inside fitting.

If the flue assembly cannot be fitted from the outside,
proceed as follows:

1.

Insert the flue assembly through the hole far
enough to allow the rubber seal to unfold
completely and form an adequate seal on the
outside wall.

2.

 Ensure the notch is at the top. This will aid the
location of the studs into the boiler back panel.

3.

Proceed to Frame 24, item B.

B. Outside fitting.

Proceed to Frame 24, item A.

23 FITTING THE SIDE OUTLET PLATES

Note.

 

If the boiler is fitted closer than 25mm to the side wall

the side outlet plate must be fitted now.

1.

Split the side outlet plate into 2 down the split line.

2.

Fit the 2 halves of the side outlet plate to the wall,
ensuring they are behind the boiler sealing ring.

24 LOCATING THE BOILER

A.

If the flue assembly can be fitted from the 

outside

,

proceed as follows:

1.

Move the boiler into position ensuring that the flue
outlet is in line with the wall opening.

2.

Insert the flue assembly ensuring that the flue slides
into the flue extension and the 3 sealing ring studs
locate into the boiler.

B.

If the flue assembly has been fitted from the 

inside

proceed as follows:

1.

Move the boiler into position ensuring that the flue
slides into the flue extension tube and the 3
sealing ring studs locate into the boiler back
panel.

1.

Secure the flue to the boiler, using the
three M5 wing nuts provided.

2.

Fit the medium length extension tube
(with ring) to the flue elbow, rotate in the
bayonet slot and secure with the M4
screw.

3.

Engage the extension tube into the flue
outlet, connect the elbow to the fan
outlet and secure with the M4 screw.

Note.

The sealing plate studs will locate in the
back panel one way only. This will ensure
that the terminal is correctly aligned.
