3.1
Installation & General Operation
Installation of the boiler should only be carried out
by a Gas Safe Registered Installer or other
Competent Person
1. Any modification that may interfere with the
normal operation of the boiler without express
written permission from the manufacturer or his agent
could invalidate the boiler warranty. In GB this could
also infringe the Gas Safety (Installation and Use)
Regulations.
2. Do not interfere with any sealed components on
this boiler, or operate it without the casing panels
correctly fitted.
3. Take note of any warning labels on your boiler.
4. Your boiler should have the following minimum
clearances for Safety and Maintenance
(Figs. 4 & 5):-
Top
- 15mm
Sides
- 5mm
Front
- 5mm (In Operation)
- 500mm (For Servicing)
* It is recommended that any worktop is removable
for servicing access.
5. If your boiler is installed in a compartment, do not
use it for storage purposes.
6. Flammable materials must not be stored in close
proximity to your boiler.
7. Avoid skin contact when your boiler is in operation,
as some surfaces may get hot e.g. pipework.
8. Ensure that the flue terminal, outside the house,
does not become damaged or obstructed, particularly
by foliage.
9. It is important that the condensate drain system is
not blocked, modified or damaged in any way as this
would affect the operation of your boiler. Your
installer should have insulated any part of the
condensate drain that is fitted externally.
10. A condensate disposal pipe runs from your boiler
carrying fluid to a drain. This pipe is plastic and should
not be subjected to sources of heat and must also be
protected against potential damage.
