Temperature Control

1.

Central Heating:

The central heating hot water

flow temperature can be adjusted between 30° C

(± 5° C) minimum and 85° C (± 5° C) maximum.

2. Turn the control knob clockwise to increase the

temperature (Fig. 9).

3. In normal winter usage we recommend that the

central heating temperature be set at maximum.

4.

Domestic Hot Water:

The temperature of the

domestic hot water can be adjusted by turning the

control knob clockwise to increase up to a

maximum of 65° C (Fig. 10).

5. The temperature of the water is also dependent

on the water flow rate and the temperature of the

mains coming into the house.

6. By slightly reducing the flow from the tap the

temperature will increase up to the maximum if

required.

7. The flow rate can be reduced down to as low

as 2.5 litre/min. The boiler will still recognise the

need to heat the water.

3.3

Flame Failure Reset

1. The red flame failure neon (

) will illuminate in

the event of the burner failing to light, or when

incomplete lighting of the burner occurs (Fig. 11).

2. Turn the selector switch fully anti-clockwise

against the spring pressure to the reset position,

hold for 2 seconds and release (Fig. 12). Set the

selector to the required position to light the boiler.

3. If the flame failure light illuminates repeatedly a

fault is indicated. Your Service Engineer should

be contacted as soon as possible.

3.4

Safety Thermostat 

1. Your Potterton Performa 28 is fitted with an

additional safety device, which shuts down the

boiler in the event of the system or the boiler

overheating. The safety thermostat neon (     ) will

light in this instance (Fig. 11).

2. 

To reset:

Turn the selector fully anti-clockwise

against the spring pressure to the reset position,

hold for 2 seconds and release (Fig. 12). Set the

selector to the required position to light the boiler.

3. If the safety thermostat operates repeatedly,

causing boiler shutdown, a fault is indicated. Your

Service Engineer should be contacted as soon as

possible.
