▶ Follow the instructions listed here and observe directivesand local regulations on condensate discharge.

▶ Use PVC or another material that is suitable for drainingthe non-neutralised condensate.

▶ If it cannot be guaranteed that the materials the drainlines are made from are suitable, install a system forneutralising the condensate.

▶ Ensure that the connection between the condensatedrain pipework and the drain hose is not air-tight.

Note

The condensate drain pipework must have acontinuous fall (45 mm per metre) and shouldwhenever possible terminate at a suitabledrain point within the heated envelope of thebuilding that will remain frost free under longperiods of low external temperatures.

▶ During installation remove all burs from inside of cut pipework and avoid excessive adhesive which may trap smallpockets of water close to the pipe wall which can freezeand build into a larger ice plug.

▶ As with other pipe work insulate the condensate dis-charge pipe to minimise any risk of freezing and bewarewhen crossing cavities that the fall is maintained and thepipe sleeved.

▶ If you ascertain that it contains magnetite, clean the sys-tem and apply suitable corrosion-protection measures, orfit a magnet filter.

▶ Check the pH value of the removed water at 25 °C.

▶ If the value is below 6.5 or above 8.5, clean the systemand treat the heating water.

▶ Ensure that oxygen cannot get into the heating water.

Checking the filling and supplementary water▶ Before filling the system, measure the hardness of the

filling and supplementary water.

Treating the filling and supplementary water▶ Observe all applicable national regulations and technical

standards when treating the filling and supplementarywater.

Provided the national regulations and technical standardsdo not stipulate more stringent requirements, the followingapplies:

Appendix


H.2 Horizontal terminal positioning

BS 5440-1 recommends that fanned flue chimney terminals should be positioned as follows:

a) at least 2 m from an opening in the building directly opposite, and

b) so that the products of combustion are not directed to discharge directly across a boundary if the products are likely tocause a nuisance to a neighbour or discharge over a walkway or patio.

For IE see current issue of IS 813.

For boilers covered within this manual.

1) Dimensions D, E, F and G:

These clearances may be reduced to 25 mm without affecting the performance of the boiler. In order to ensure that the con-densate plume does not affect adjacent surfaces the terminal should be extended as shown below.

Balcony/eaves

Gutter

Adequately secured air/flue gas pipe

The flue pipe mustprotrude beyond any overhang

2) Dimension H:

This clearance may be reduced to 25 mm without affecting the performance of the boiler. However, in order to ensure thatthe condensate plume does not affect adjacent surfaces a clearance of 300 mm is preferred.

For 1 and 2 above you can use a flue gas management kit to enable the termination point to be positioned and directed awayfrom the building fabric.

PRIOR TO CO AND COMBUSTION RATIO CHECKThe boiler manufacturer’s installation instructions should have been followed, gas type verified and gas

supply pressure/rate checked as required prior to commissioning.As part of the installation process, especially where a flue has been fitted by persons other than the boiler installer, visually check the integrity of the whole flue system to confirm that all components are correctly assembled, fixed and supported. Check that manufacturer’s max. flue lengths have not been

exceeded and all guidance has been followed (e.g. Gas Safe Technical Bulletin TB008).The flue gas analyser should be of the correct type, as specified by BS 7967

Prior to its use, the flue gas analyser should have been maintained and calibrated as specified by the manufacturer. The installer must have the relevant competence for use of the analyser.

Check and zero the analyser IN FRESH AIR as per analyser manufacturer’s instructions.

NOTETHE AIR GAS RATIO VALVE IS FACTORY

SET AND MUST NOT BE ADJUSTED DURING COMMISSIONING UNLESS THIS ACTION IS RECOMMENDED FOLLOWING CONTACT WITH THE MANUFACTURER.

If any such adjustment is recommended and further checking of the boiler is required the

installer/service engineer must be competent to carry out this work and to use the flue gas

analyser accordingly.If the boiler requires conversion to operate with

a different gas family (e.g. conversion from natural gas to LPG) separate guidance will be

provided by the boiler manufacturer

CARRY OUT FLUE INTEGRITY CHECK USING ANALYSERInsert analyser probe into air inlet test point and allow readings to stabilise.NOTE - where no air inlet test point is provided then a flue integrity check

with the analyser is not possible. The installer should verify that flue integrity has been visually checked in accordance with the “Prior to

CO and combustion ratio check” box above before proceeding to the “Check CO and combustion ratio at maximum rate” stage below.

SET BOILER TO MINIMUM RATEIn accordance with boiler instructions, set boiler to operate at minimum rate (to

minimum load condition). Allow sufficient time for combustion to stabilise.NOTE - If manufacturer’s instructions do not specify how to set boiler to minimum

rate contact Technical Helpline for advice.

CHECK CO AND COMBUSTION RATIO AT MINIMUM RATEWith boiler still set at minimum rate, insert analyser probe into flue gas sampling

point. Allow readings to stabilise before recording.NOTE - If no flue gas sampling point is present and the correct procedure is not

specified in the manual, consult boiler manufacturer for guidance.

CHECK CO AND COMBUSTION RATIO AT MAX. RATEWith boiler still set at maximum rate, insert analyser probe into flue gas

sampling point. Allow readings to stabilise before recording.NOTE - If no flue gas sampling point is present and the correct procedure is

not specified in the manual, consult boiler manufacturer for guidance.

SET BOILER TO MAXIMUM RATEIn accordance with boiler instructions, set boiler to operate at max. rate

(full load condition). Allow sufficient time for combustion to stabilise.NOTE - Do not insert analyser probe during this period to avoid

possible “flooding” of sensor.

TURN OFF APPLIANCE AND CALL MANUFACTURER’S TECHNICAL HELPLINE

FOR ADVICE.THE APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE

COMMISSIONED UNTIL PROBLEMS ARE IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.

VERIFY FLUE INTEGRITYAnalyser readings indicate that combustion products and inlet air must be mixing. Further investigation of

the flue is therefore required.Check that flue components are assembled, fixed and supported as per boiler/flue manufacturer’s

instructions.Check that flue and flue terminal are not obstructed.

IsCO less than

335ppmand

CO/CO2 ratio less than 0.004

IsO2 20.6%

Check all seals around the appliance burner, internal flue seals, door and case seals.

Rectify where necessary.

TURN OFF APPLIANCE AND CALL MANUFACTURER’S TECHNICAL HELPLINE

FOR ADVICE.THE APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE

COMMISSIONED UNTIL PROBLEMS ARE IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED. IF

COMMISSIONING CANNOT BE FULLY COMPLETED, THE APPLIANCE MUST BE

DISCONNECTED FROM THE GAS SUPPLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE GSIUR.
