ANT DO’S AND DONT

’S

DO -   

Check the incoming mains water pressure. If it exceeds 3.5 bar at any point 
in the 24 hour cycle then a pressure limiting valve set at 3.5 bar should be  
fi tted where the cold supply enters the property.

DO -   

Check that all connections are in accordance with the labelling on the 
thermal store.

DO -   

Fill the cistern manually or adjust the ballvalve so that the water in the F & 
E cistern is set to the correct level.

 

 

DO -   

Restrict the ballvalve fi ll rate when full so that the overfl ow pipe can cope 
with the fi ll rate in the event of a ballvalve failure.

DO -   

Make sure there is  adequate clearance above the F & E cistern to service 
the valve.

DO -   

Ensure that range-rated appliances are set to the specifi ed design heat 
input and the boiler thermostat is set to maximum for all boilers.

DO -   

Ensure that the water level in the expansion cistern is at least 250mm 
above the highest point on the radiator circuit and satisfi es the boiler head 
required.

DO -  

Insulate any exposed pipework in the Torrent cupboard.

DO -   

Plumb the overfl ow warning pipe in 20mm minimum internal diameter 
tubing to discharge in a conspicuous external position, using high 
temperature uPVC or copper.

DO -  

Check the pump setting.  This should be set as high as possible (consistent 
with not creating noise) so as to give a small temperature  difference across 
the boiler,  i.e. not greater than 11°C.

DON’T -   Use a combined feed and vent on Torrent indirect installations.

DON’T -   Use tube smaller than 28mm between boiler and Torrent when the boiler 

exceeds 60,000 Btu (17kW) output.

DON’T -   Use dipped fl ow and return pipes between boiler and Torrent unless the 

boiler is fi tted with an overheat switch.

DON’T -   place any clothing or other combustible materials against or on top of this 

appliance.
