Installing the boiler
■
The appliance must be installed
exclusively on a flat vertical solid wall
capable of supporting its weight
.
■
The boiler should be fitted within the
building unless otherwise protected by a
suitable
enclosure
i.e.
garage
or
outhouse. (the boiler may be fitted inside
a cupboard
.
■
If the boiler is sited in an unheated
enclosure then it is recommended to
leave the power on to give frost protection
(frost protection is active even with on/off
switch in off position).
■
If the boiler is installed in a room
containing a bath or shower reference
must
be
made
to
the
relevant
requirements.
In order to allow access to the interior of the
boiler for maintenance purposes, it is
important that the necessary clearances
indicated in figure 1 are respected. To make
the installation easier, the boiler is supplied
with a template to enable the pipe
connections to be positioned prior to fixing the
appliance to the wall.
To install the boiler, proceed as follows (see
fig. 2):
a.
Use a spirit level (of not less than 25 mm
long) to mark a horizontal line on the wall
where the boiler is to be fitted.
b.
Position the top of the template along the
line drawn with the level, respecting the
distances indicated. Then mark the
centres of the positions of the two wall-
plugs or anchors. Finally, mark the
positions of the water and gas pipes.
c.
Remove the template and install the
domestic hot and cold water pipes, the
gas supply pipe and the central heating
pipes using the fittings supplied with the
boiler.
Fix the boiler to the wall using the wall plugs
or bracket and connect the pipes.
