GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
IMPORTANT: IT IS A STATUTORY REQUIREMENT THAT ALL GAS APPLIANCES BE INSTALLED
BY COMPETENT PERSONS, (i.e. GAS SAFE REGISTERED INSTALLERS. GAS SAFE
MEMBERSHIP ENQUIRIES - TEL: 0800 408 5500) IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE GAS SAFETY
(INSTALLATION AND USE) REGULATIONS (CURRENT EDITION). FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH
THESE REGULATIONS MAY RESULT IN PROSECUTION.
Part of the installation and commissioning of this appliance is related to instructions for use by the heating
engineer to the user where specific requirements may occur.
The Warmcair is a floor mounted, condensing heater, featuring full sequence automatic spark ignition and
fan assisted combustion. Due to the high efficiency of the heater, condensate is produced from the flue
gases and this is drained to a suitable disposal point through a plastic waste pipe at the base of the heater.
A condensate ‘plume’ will also be visible at the flue terminal.
2. TEMPERATURE
CONTROL
2.1 THERMISTA-STAT
OPERATION
2.1.1
The numbers on the Thermista-stat dial represent levels of warmth. When you select a number,
the heater will automatically operate to maintain this level. You will soon find the setting with
which you are most comfortable, and it is suggested that you start at mark 6, making adjustments
up or down until a satisfactory level is reached.
2.2
ROOM THERMOSTAT OPERATION (optional)
2.2.1
The room thermostat enables you to select the room temperature that you require. When the air
temperature surrounding the thermostat reaches the selected temperature, the thermostat will
switch the heater off. The thermostat will then automatically allow the heater to cycle on and off to
maintain the selected room temperature.
2.3
CONTROL OF YOUR HEATING SYSTEM
2.3.1
You can control the heat to each room by opening and closing the warm air outlets, but not more
than half of these outlets should be closed at any one time or the performance of the heating
system may be adversely affected.
2.3.2
Warm air outlets in the room where the Thermista-stat or room thermostat is sited should always
be left open to ensure that the heating system is properly controlled.
2.4
SUMMER AIR CIRCULATION (if
fi
tted)
2.4.1
During hot weather, unheated air can be circulated around the home, by turning the heating
requirement off and setting the SUMMER AIR CIRCULATION SWITCH to ON. This switches the
heater’s fan on, and circulates air around the home through the air outlets.
2.5 ECONOMIC
OPERATION
2.5.1
The best economy is achieved by setting the Thermista-stat or room thermostat to the lowest
setting that you find acceptable.
2.5.2
Overnight in prolonged severe weather, it is better to set the air heater TIME CONTROL (if fitted),
to ON ALL TIME, and reduce the Thermista-stat or room thermostat setting to provide general
background heating. Resetting the controls to normal settings on rising will quickly raise the room
temperature.
a)
Recommended background heating settings:
Thermista-stat: Mark 4
Room thermostat: 13°C (55°F)
3. AIR
FILTER
IMPORTANT:
The air filter should be cleaned every two weeks during the heating season, or every week for the first
month in new homes to clear builder’s dust etc.
3.1
To clean the air filter, withdraw it from the heater and clean it using either a soft brush or vacuum
cleaner before refitting it to the heater.
DO NOT
allow the filter to become clogged, or the heater
output will be greatly reduced and fuel will be wasted.
Do not use the heater without a
fi
lter.
