7.0Site Requirements

7.1Location

1.The boiler may be fitted to any suitable wall with the flue passing through an outside wall or roof and discharging to atmosphere in a position permitting satisfactory removal of combustion products and providing an adequate air supply. The boiler should be fitted within the building unless otherwise protected by a suitable enclosure i.e. garage or outhouse. (The boiler may be fitted inside a cupboard-see Section 7.3).

2.If the boiler is sited in an unheated enclosure then it is recommended to leave the ON/OFF Selector Switch in the domestic hot water and central heating position to give frost protection.

3.If the boiler is fitted in a room containing a bath or shower reference must be made to the relevant requirements.

In GB this is the current I.E.E. Wiring Regulations and Building Regulations.

In IE reference should be made to the current edition of I.S. 813 “Domestic Gas Installations” and the current ETCI rules.

4.If the boiler is to be fitted into a building of timber frame construction then reference must be made to the current edition of Institute of Gas Engineers Publication IGE/UP/7 (Gas Installations in Timber Framed Housing).

7.2Clearances (Figs. 8 & 9)

1.A flat vertical area is required for the installation of the boiler.

2.These dimensions include the necessary clearances around the boiler for case removal, access during routine maintenance and air movement. Additional clearances may be required for the passage of pipes around local obstructions such as joists running parallel to the front face of the boiler.

* NOTE: The boiler can be operated with a clearance of 5mm at the right. This is also sufficient for routine maintenance. However a clearance of 20mm is required if it is necessary to remove the secondary heat exchanger. This should be considered when siting the appliance and in the event of any subsequent alteration in the area of installation.
