3.1

GAS SUPPLY

The Alpha HE CB25 and HE SY25 boilers require a gas rate of 2.61 m³/h (92.1 ft³/h).
The Alpha HE CB33 boiler requires a gas rate of 3.49 m³/h (123.2 ft³/h).
The meter and supply pipes must be capable of delivering this quantity of gas in addition to the demand from any other
appliances in the house. The boiler requires at least a 22 mm gas supply pipe.
The complete installation, including the meter, must be tested for gas soundness and purged as described in BS 6891.

3.2

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY

The boiler requires a 230/240 V ~ 50 Hz mains supply, fused at 3 A

The boiler must be earthed.

There must only be one common isolator, providing complete electrical isolation, for the boiler and any external controls.
This boiler has been fitted with a supply cable, however, if it is necessary to fit a cable use PVC insulated cable not less than
0.75 mm² (24 x 0.2 mm) to BS 6500 Table 16. The boiler should be connected to a fused three pin plug and unswitched
shuttered socket outlet (both complying with BS 1363), or a fused double pole switch with a contact separation of at least 3 mm
in both poles.
Wiring external to the boiler must be in accordance with the current IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671).

Note: 

If a room thermostat is fitted, it must be suitable for 230/240 V switching.

3.3

AIR SUPPLY

The boiler does not require any air vents for cooling in the room in which it is installed or when installed in a cupboard or
compartment. The minimum clearances for servicing must always be maintained.

Note: 

A cupboard or compartment used to enclose the boiler must be designed and constructed specifically for the purpose,

i.e. comply with the Building Regulations.

3.4

FLUE SYSTEM - Fig. 3

The flue system must be installed in accordance with BS 5440:1.
For horizontal flues ensure the flue assembly is horizontal and the inner duct is sloping downwards towards the boiler.
Flue components are available as follows:-
CD Easy-Flue 500 mm (includes 90° bend and terminal) - Part No. 6.2000500.
CD Easy-Flue 1000 mm (includes 90° bend and terminal) - Part No. 6.20001000.
CD 1 m flue extension - Part No. 6.20001050.
CD 0.75 m flue extension - Part No. 6.2000750.
CD 90° bend - Part No. 6.2000590.
CD 45° bend - Part No. 6.2000545.
CD Vertical flue terminal assembly. Refer to the separate installation instructions supplied with the assembly.
The following methods determine the correct length of flue required.

For rear exit flue (including terminal) L = B + 170 mm
For side exit flue (including terminal) L = B + C + 230 mm (min. side clearance required is 5 mm)
For vertical flue L = H minus 1000 mm for vertical terminal assembly
Where

L = Required flue length
B = Finished wall thickness
C = Distance from the inside wall to the side of the boiler
H = Distance from top of boiler side panel to roof position

Note: 1.

If  an extra 90° bend is used, this reduces the maximum flue length by 1.3 m. Each 45° bend used reduces the maximum
flue length by 0.9 m.

2.

Under no circumstances must the flue length (including allowances for extra bends) exceed 3 metres horizontally and only
6 metres vertically.

3.

 If the flue is more than 0.5 m, the restrictor must be removed from the boiler flue adaptor (see Fig. 19,

4.

Failure to use Alpha CD flue components with the boiler will invalidate the boilers CE approval, guarantee and may be
unsafe.
