ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
The boiler STROPUVA P must be connected to an electrical system that fully complies with the
regulations in force in the country of operation.
Improper installation can damage the controller, injuring people and the environment. The controller
and device are powered by 230 V voltage. Therefore, connection work may only be carried out by a
person who has the necessary knowledge, skills and meets the additional requirements in force in the
country where the boiler is installed.

BOILER OPERATION
7.1
General information
The user must have effective boiler items such as a shovel, cleaning rod, and wear personal protective
equipment, at least gloves and goggles.
It is forbidden to modify the design of the boiler or its principle of operation in any way, as well as to
install other equipment - not installed at the factory or recommended by the manufacturer - as the
boiler may fail.
This work must be carried out in accordance with the installation instructions or the regulations in force.
Before igniting the burner, check that the system is properly filled and in good condition. The condition
of the chimney must also be checked.
It is allowed to test the boiler only by a qualified installer.
Use only dry fuel. Wet fuel can get stuck in the tank - burning will produce more smoke and the boiler
will wear out faster.
We recommend to measure emissions after the first boiler start-up and, if necessary, adjust the boiler
combustion.
We recommend that you do not operate the boiler in the event of a malfunction and contact the
service department of JSC “Stropuva ir ko” immediately.
Note: After connecting and starting up the boiler, the customer must be instructed by a competent
person on the use and maintenance of the boiler.
For more information on starting and operating the boiler, see the burner and controller instructions.
7.2
Accidental ignition of soot in a chimney
Soot can ignite in a dirty chimney. This can lead to an entire building or neighbouring buildings catching
fire and can cause cracks in the chimney walls.
If soot catches fire in the chimney, it is very important:
•
To stop the air flow from the boiler to the chimney by closing all openings (switching off the ventilator).
• For
the fire brigade to remove potential fires outside the building that could be caused by burning
soot being emitted from the chimney.
After extinguishing the chimney, do not use the boiler in order to carefully assess the technical condition
of the chimney, repair any damaged areas and obtain permission from the competent administrative
authority to continue using the chimney in accordance with the regulations in force in the country of
operation of the boiler.
7.3
Cleaning and technical maintenance
The service life of the boiler is highly dependent on the frequency of its cleaning and proper
maintenance. The boiler and burner must be cleaned periodically (every 3-4 days). Neglect causes
significant heat loss and impairs gas circulation inside the boiler and may result in corrosion and
irreparable damage to the boiler. Clean the boiler at the end of the heating season.
