TO SHUT DOWN THE BOILER
Set the mode to OFF
To relight the boiler repeat the procedure detailed in ‘To light the boiler’.
4.3
FROST PROTECTION
If no system frost protection is provided and frost is likely during a short absence from home, leave the
heating controls (if fitted) at a reduced temperature setting. For longer periods, the entire system should be
drained.
If the system includes a frost thermostat then, during cold weather, the boiler should be turned OFF at the
time switch (if fitted) ONLY. The mains supply should be left switched ON, with the boiler thermostat left in
the normal running position.
4. Turn the filling loop isolation valves to the open position. The system will now fill.
5. Wait for pressure gauge dial to reach 1 to 1.5 bar.
6. Close the filling loop isolation valves.
7. Disconnect the filling loop at left hand side and angle upwards.
8. Attach the two caps as shown on point 2.
4.5
CONDENSATE DRAIN
The condensate drain must not be modified or blocked.
Blockage of the condensate drain, caused by debris or freezing, can cause automatic shutdown of the
boiler.
If freezing is suspected and the pipe run is accessible an attempt may be made to free the obstruction by
pouring hot water over the exposed pipe and clearing any blockage from the end of the pipe. If this fails to
remedy the problem the assistance of a Gas Safe Registered Engineer or in IE a Registered Gas Installer
(RGII) should be sought.
