To avoid damaging metal, plastic and rubber parts, use only neutral cleaners, i.e. non-acid and non alkaline. The recommended products for cleaning are:

SENTINEL X300 or X400 and FERNOX heating circuit restore. Please ensure to use this product proceeding strictly in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Finally fill the system with the correct strength of central heating inhibitor.

2.2. Existing system

Before proceeding with installation of the boiler, the system must be cleaned and flushed out to remove sludge and contaminants, using suitable proprietary products as described in section 2.1.

To avoid damaging metal, plastic and rubber parts, use only neutral cleaners, i.e. non-acid and non- alkaline such us SENTINEL X100 and FERNOX heating circuit protective. To use this product proceeding strictly in accordance with the maker’s directions.

Remember that the presence of foreign matter in the heating system can adversely affect the operation of the boiler (e.g. overheating and noisy operation of the heat exchanger). Dose with inhibitor.

Failure to observe the above will render the guarantee null and void.

10. BOILER INSTALLATION

Decide upon the boiler location, then tape the template on the wall.

Connect the pipework to the gas and water inlets prearranged on the template lower bar.

If you are either installing the boiler on a pre-existing system or replacing it, we suggest you also fit strainers on the system return pipework to the boiler to collect the deposits and scaling which may remain and be circulated in the system after the initial filling.

When the boiler is fixed on the template connect the flue and air ducts (fittings supplied by the manufacturer) according to the instructions given in the following relevant sections.

Connect the condensate outlet to the siphon supplied with the boiler. Connect the siphon to a drain, making sure there is a continuous slope. Horizontal sections must be avoided.
