ÜKY/Duopel Boilers User Manual
SELECTION of INSTALLATION PLACE
The place where the boiler is installed must have enough free space for the installation, burning and
maintenance of the boiler. For the service need, the gearbox and the group to which the shaft is
connected should be distant from the wall to easily come out. For this, the dimensions in the
paragraph titled “Mounting location dimensions” should be applied.
In addition, there should be a sufficient amount of clean air circulation for efficient combustion, the
chimney design must meet the required draft values for the model used and comply with the
construction criteria and related regulations given in the manual. The boiler should never be installed
in open spaces, balconies, living areas (kitchen, living room, bathroom, bedroom), in places with
explosive and easily flammable materials.
The door of the boiler room should not be opened directly to the escape staircase or general use
stairs and must be opened to a security hall. There should be at least one door in boiler rooms with
thermal capacities between 50 kW and 100 kW, and at least 2 exit doors in boiler rooms with a floor
area over 100 m
2
. The exit doors should be placed in the opposite direction of each other as much as
possible, they should be resistant to fire for at least 90 minutes, smoke-tight and capable of self-
closing.
At least one of the doors must open directly outside and outside the building. If it is possible to open
a door directly outside the building from the boiler room, this is the most suitable solution. The door
of the boiler room should not be opened directly to the escape staircase or general use staircases
and must be opened to a common hallway or corridor.
A threshold of at least 10 cm height is recommended for the doors opening from the boiler room into
the building. If it is possible to illuminate the boiler room naturally, it should be noted that the
lighting openings do not come under other windows of the building. If artificial lighting is made, a
system that does not dazzle but brightens the apartment should be installed. The main switches and
panels belonging to the boiler room should be placed around the entrance door and should be leak-
proof type. A fire tube must be kept in the boiler rooms.
One of the purposes of placing the boiler on the concrete base in the boiler room is to prevent the
fan from sucking dust from the floor. Ventilation can be done naturally or algebraically. It should be
ensured that the fresh air inlet chimney mouth is at the ground level and the dirty air tapping
chimney mouth is at the ceiling level.
At least 1 6 kg multi-purpose dry chemical powder extinguishing device should be kept in the boiler
room. If natural gas or liquid fuel boilers are also used in the same boiler room, the tear surface must
be designed.
The established place must have grilles which are directly connected to the external environment
and allow fresh air to enter. One of the culverts should be at most 40 cm below the boiler room
ceiling and the other should be at most 50 cm above the floor. These culverts should be constantly
open. The lower grill must be at least 40 x 40 cm and the top grill must be at least 30 x 30 cm. Pets
