10.1Initial Preparation

The gas supply, gas type and pressure must be

checked for suitability before connection (see Section

7.4).

1. After considering the site requirements

(see Section 7.0) position the fixing template on the

wall ensuring it is level both horizontally and vertically.

2.Mark the position of the two most suitable fixing slots for the wall plate and boiler lower fixing holes. It is preferable to use the horizontal fixing slots.

3.Mark the position of the centre of the flue hole (rear exit). For side flue exit, mark as shown (Fig. 30).

4.Note the shaded area on the template. Pipework may be routed upwards behind the boiler, providing it does not conflict with the shaded area.

5.If required, mark the position of the gas and water pipes. Remove the template.

6.Cut the hole for the flue (minimum diameter 116mm).

7.Drill the wall as previously marked to accept the wall plugs supplied. Secure the wall plate using the fixing screws.

8.Using a spirit level ensure that the plate is level before finally tightening the screws.

9.Connect the gas and water pipes to the valves on the wall plate using the copper tails supplied. Ensure that the sealing washers are fitted between the connections.

10.2Flushing

1.Connect a tube to the central heating flow or return pipe (Fig. 31).

2.Flush thoroughly (see System Details, Section 6.2).
