7.1.
Installing the automatic pellet burner
Use the mineral wool insulation seal applied to the burner pellet. Avoid damaging the seal when connecting
the burner to the boiler flange - this seal reduces the penetration of ambient air into the combustion
chamber, as well as providing heat insulation, thereby reducing the backflow of heat towards the main
burner module.
After the pellet burner has been fitted onto the boiler aperture, the subsequent step is to tighten the
connecting nuts to ensure the sealed fitting of the heat exchanger onto the burner connecting flange.
