directive

   Caution!

   

The appliance must be installed and serviced  

   

by a competent person as stated in the Gas  

   

Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998. 

   

In IE, the installation must be in accordance  

   

with the current edition of I.S.813  

 

   

‘Domestic Gas Installations’, the current   

   

Building Regulations and reference should be  

   

made to the current ETCI rules for electrical  

   

installation.

  Caution!

   

When tightening or slackening screwed    

   

connections always use suitable open-ended  

   

spanners (not pipe wrench, or extensions, etc.).  

   

Incorrect use and/or unsuitable tools can lead  

   

to damage being caused (e.g. gas or water  

   

leakage)!

3.3 

Installation site

The location chosen for the boiler must permit 

the provision of a satisfactory flue termination. 

The location must also provide adequate space 

for servicing and air circulation around the boiler. 

The boiler may be installed in any room, although 

particular attention is drawn to the requirements of 

BS 7671 (IEE Regulations), the electrical provisions of 

the Building Standards (Scotland) Regulations, and in 

IE the current edition of IS 813 and the current ETCI 

rules, in respect of the installation of a boiler in a room 

containing a bath or shower.

   Note!

   

If a room sealed boiler is installed in a room  

   

with a bath or shower, electrical switches or  

   

boiler controls using the mains power supply  

   

must be placed at locations that cannot be  

   

reached by the person in the bath or shower.

If the boiler is installed in an unusual location, special 

procedures may be necessary and BS 5546 and BS 

6798 give detailed guidance on this aspect. The boiler 

must be mounted on a flat, vertical wall, which must be 

sufficiently robust to take the weight of the boiler. The 

boiler may be installed on a combustible wall, subject 

to the requirements of the Local Authorities and 

Building Regulations.

A compartment used to enclose the boiler must be 

designed and constructed specifically for this purpose. 

(An existing cupboard or compartment may be used 

provided that it is modified for the purpose). Details 

of essential features of cupboard/compartment design 

including airing cupboard installations are given in BS 

6798. If the boiler is to be fitted in a timber framed 

building, it should be fitted in accordance with Institute 

of Gas Engineers Publication IGE/UP/7/1998 “Guide 

for Gas Installation in Timber Framed Housing”. Please 

note the safety instructions below before deciding 

where to install the boiler:

   Caution

   

Do not !install the appliance in rooms prone  

   

to frost. In rooms with aggressive steam   

   

or dust, the appliance must be operated    

   

independent of the ambient air.

When choosing the place of installation and while 

operating the appliance, make sure that the air 

supply is free of chemical substances containing 

fluorine, chlorine, sulphur etc. Sprays, solvents and 

cleaning agents, paints, adhesives etc. contain the 

kind of substances that can lead to corrosion even in 

the exhaust system when the appliance is operated 

depending on the ambient air in the worst case 

scenario. Particularly in hair-cutting salons, lacquering 

and finishing, cleaning facilities, the appliance must be 

operated independent of the ambient air! Otherwise, 

a separate installation room is required to guarantee 

that the air supply is free of the above mentioned 

substances.
