4.0Clearances and Check List

4.1Clearances around the Boiler

(Figs. 23 & 24)

1.The minimum clear spaces needed around the boiler measured from the casing are as follows:

Top

-

200mm

 

Bottom

-

200mm

 

Both sides

-

5mm

 

Front

-

5mm

(In Operation)

-450mm (For Servicing)

2.These areas must not be obstructed in any way. Blocking the clearance spaces may result in the boiler overheating and damage may occur.

3.The gas burning compartment of your boiler is completely sealed from the room in which it is fitted. Products from the combustion of gas are vented to the outside through the flue terminal which must be kept free from obstruction as this would interfere with the correct operation of the boiler.

4.The boiler may be installed in a cupboard if these minimum clearances are kept. The compartment should be large enough to house the boiler and ancillary equipment only.

5.IT SHOULD NOT BE USED AS A STORAGE CUPBOARD.
