4.1 Boiler location
Note!
This boiler is not suitable for outdoor
installation.
This boiler may be installed in any room,
although particular attention is drawn to the
installation of a boiler in a room containing a
bath or shower where reference must be made
to the relevant requirements.
This boiler is suitable for installation in
bathroom zones 2 and 3.
4.1.1 Sheet metal parts
Caution!
When installing the appliance, care should be
taken to avoid any possibility of personal injury
when handling sheet metal parts.
In GB this is the current I.E.E. WIRING REGULATIONS
and BUILDING REGULATIONS. In IE reference should
be made to the current edition of I.S.813 “Domestic
Gas Installations” and the current ETCI rules. The
boiler must be mounted on a flat wall, which is
sufficiently robust to take its total weight, see boiler
specifications 2.1.
4.1.2 Clearances
The boiler should be positioned so that at least the
minimum operational and servicing clearances are
provided, see fig 4.1.
Additional clearances may be beneficial around the
boiler for installation and servicing.
For flue installations where external access is not
practicable, consideration should be given for the
space required to insert the flue internally, which may
necessitate clearance larger than those specified in fig
4.1.
4.1.3 Timber frame buildings
If the boiler is to be installed in a timber frame building
it should be fitted in accordance with the Institute of
Gas Engineers document IGE/UP/7/1998. If in doubt
seek advice from the local gas undertaking or Vaillant.
