Before connecting to the power supply
Remove all packaging and plastic coating from the appliance
Check the unit has not been damaged in any way during transportation. Report any damage to the
company who sold you the boiler right away.
Check the available power supply corresponds to that shown on the rating label of the appliance, which
must be A.C. (Alternating Current).
Ensure the yellow steam cap is removed from the steam vent prior to powering appliance.
Connecting to the water supply
Connection to the cold water supply and the appliance should only be made by the hose supplied.
In hard water areas, it is always advisable to fit an inline filtration unit to limit scale build-up. If you have
purchased a Burco boiler that does not have a water filter system included, we recommend you fit a
separate water filter between the boiler and the mains supply.
Always ensure mains water supply is turned off, or localised isolation valves are closed before
attempting to connect boiler to the mains water supply.
The inlet water connection to the inlet solenoid valve is
¾” BSP, this should be connected to the mains
water supply via an accessible isolating tap.
The blue pipe at the bottom of the boiler connects to the grey fitting which is shown in picture 1 above.
Firmly push the blue pipe into the small outlet hole on the grey fitting.
Ensure grey connection is screwed tight on the mains water supply and not leaking, forming a cold
water feed from the mains water supply to the Burco boiler.
Do not use old water hoses.
Venting
There is a possibility the steam vent may discharge hot or cold water and/or steam into the local vicinity
of the boiler. If uncontrolled, steam or water damage may occur in this area. It is recommended that
the vent on the base of the boiler is plumbed to a safe visible location.
Please ensure that any building and/or water regulations are fully adhered to.
