10.3
Fitting The Boiler
1. Lift the boiler using the Lifting Points as shown by the
shaded areas (Fig. 43) The boiler should be lifted by TWO
PEOPLE. Engage the slots at the top rear of the boiler on
the wall plate (Fig. 43) (see
Safe Manual Handling
page 5).
2. Remove the sealing caps from the boiler connections
(Fig 43).
NOTE:
A small amount of water may drain from the
boiler once the caps are removed.
3.
Insert the sealing washers between the valves and
pipes on the wall plate and the boiler connections.
4. Tighten all the connections.
10.4
Fitting the Safety Pressure Relief Discharge
Pipe (Fig. 44)
1. Remove the discharge pipe from the kit.
2. Determine the routing of the discharge pipe in the
vicinity of the boiler. Make up as much of the pipework as
is practical, including the discharge pipe supplied.
3. The pipework must be at least 15mm diameter and run
continuously downwards to a discharge point outside the
building. See section 6.7 for further details.
4. Utilising one of the sealing washers, connect the
discharge pipe to the adaptor and tighten the nut.
5. Complete the discharge pipework and route it to the
outside discharge point.
IMPORTANT:
Make all soldered joints before
connecting to the pressure relief valve.
10.5
Condensate Drain
(see section 7.7)
1. Connect the condensate drain to the trap outlet pipe.
Ensure the discharge of condensate complies with any
national or local regulations in force (see British Gas
“Guidance Notes for the Installation of Domestic Gas
Condensing Boilers”).
2. The connection will accept 21.5mm (
3
/
4
in) plastic
overflow pipe which should generally discharge internally
into the household drainage system. If this is not possible,
discharge into an outside drain is acceptable.
