General installation conditions

Assess the overall height of the installation 
including PFGHRD and choose the appropriate 
flue system arrangement (see 3. Installation 
diagram).

In situations where the water pressure exceeds 
10 bar, it should be reduced to the permitted 
water pressure. 

To allow pipework to be installed behind the 
boiler we recommend the use of the 308650 
spacing frame.

No requirement for expansion vessel or mixing 
valve, see Commissioning page 7.

PFGHRD Installation

1.

  The hot and cold water pipes are positioned 

at the bottom of the PFGHRD near the water 
connections.

Inlet

Cold mains water

Outlet

Pre-heated water

NOTE: No soldering of joints should be 
undertaken in close vicinity to the PFGHRD or 
boiler as this may cause damage.

2.

  Dimensions.

A

Distance from the flue outlet centre line to 
inside wall face, A = 130mm, if using a spacing 
frame, A = XXmm.
