Equipment for heat exhausting – accumulating reservoir
The boiler has to be operated with an accumulating reservoir.

smallest heat power in kW
The sizes of the accumulating reservoir have to be determined on the basis of the boiler power and the used fuel. The biggest capacity has to
taken into consideration, whereas the minimum used capacity of the reservoir has to be 300 l.
In case that the reservoir is fully charged, it is necessary to shut down the boiler and heat up by heat from the accumulating reservoir. After the
heat is spent in the reservoir, put the boiler into operation again. The accumulating reservoir enables provision of heat comfort and at the same
time the boiler operation.
ATTENTION! Failure of it will cause extreme pollution of the boiler drum.
Hydraulic schemes of the boilers with an accumulating reservoir are at disposal in the project materials of Viadrus at www.viadrus.cz.

Regulations and guidelines
The solid fuel boiler may be installed by a company holding a valid certification for its installation and maintenance. For the installation, a project
must be elaborated in accordance with applicable regulations. Before the boiler installation to an older heating system, the installation company
must flush (clean) the whole system. The heating system must be filled with water that meets the requirements of CSN 07 7401 and
especially its hardness must not exceed the required parameters.

ATTENTION!!! The manufacturer does not recommend to use antifreeze.
In case of reaction of the two-way safety valve, when there could be refilled water that does not conform to CSN 077401, it is
necessary to adjust water in the system so that it again conforms to this standard.
