PER-EKO type KSW & KSW PLUS – Instruction Manual
3. BOILER EQUIPMENT
The boiler is equipped with tools used for cleaning and operating the boiler, as well as devices responsible for
controlling and regulating the burning process and ensuring safe and economical boiler activity.
Boiler temperature controller is a standard feature of the KSW PLUS type. The controller’s instruction manual is
enclosed separately. The boiler’s equipment includes: bimetallic thermometer 0-120˚C, release tap G1/2”, brush, hook, ash
shovel and ash remover.
4. BOILER INSTALLATION MANUAL
The boiler is delivered in the assembled state. Before setting up and installing the boiler with the central heating
system and the chimney flue, it is strongly advised to get acquainted with the instruction manual; check if all
the devices are in working order and that the boiler is fully equipped with maintenance and cleaning tools.
4.1 Boiler set up
The boiler does not require foundation. It is allowed to lay the boiler on an underpinning not lower than 50mm.
The distance between the boiler and the opposite wall ought to be at least 0,5m greater than the boiler length but not
smaller than 2m. The distance between the back of the boiler from the boiler room wall ought to be at least equal to the
length of the connector. The distance between the side of the boiler and the wall of the boiler room should not be smaller
than 1m.
The utility room in which the boiler is to be situated ought to have 2 air holes: ventilation duct with a diameter
not smaller than 50% of the chimney diameter surface, efferent duct with a diameter not smaller than 140x140mm, with
an inlet hole under the ceiling of the boiler room.
4.2 Boiler connection to the chimney
The flue is to be attached to the chimney via the connector (this product can be purchased from the manufacturer)
made from 3mm thick metal sheet, which is to be fixed on the outlet of the flue, mounted in the chimney and sealed. It is
allowed to narrow the diameter of the connector towards the direction of the chimney duct. Under no circumstances should
the diameter be extended. The connector ought to rise up slightly from ˚5 ÷ 20˚C. An appropriate height and chimney
diameter (in accordance with the PN-89/B-10425 norm) plays a significant role in appropriate boiler activity. Before fixing
the boiler to the chimney, it is advised to check whether the chimney diameter is appropriate and that the chimney is free
from other heating objects connected to the system. The technical condition of the chimney being connected to the boiler
is to be evaluated by the chimney sweep. In order to avoid the reverse draught effect in the chimney duct, the chimney
height ought to be built above the ridge and not lower than 1,5m.
ATTENTION: Boilers type KSW are to be used together with chimney insert made of corrosion-resistant steel,
making sure that the required diameter of the chimney duct is maintained.
