2.1.3 Gas connection

The gas supply to this appliance must be installed in accordance with BS 6891 (1988).

Fit the 1/2" gas supply cock supplied with this unit immediately before the gas control block. No heat or soldered joints should be applied in the vicinity of the gas control block, as they could cause damage to the control.

All connections and joints should be tested for gas soundness with a suitable leak detector (do not use a naked flame).

2.1.4 Flue system

The water heater should be fitted with a flue system connected to the draught diverter. The flue pipe should rise for at least 50 cm. vertically before the inclusion of any bends. If a horizontal run of flue is required this should be kept to the minimum length possible and incorporate a rise of 6 cm. per metre of run. A split clip or flange should be provided in the flue close to the draught diverter for ease of servicing.

All flue materials should be corrosion resistant i.e. stainless steel or galvanised and must include a tested and approved terminal to BS 5440 part I. If the flue passes through any combustible material measures must be taken to protect against the possibility of fire.

All flues must terminate in free air space approx. 1.5 metres from any vertical surface of structure i.e. chimney stacks, roof parapets, etc. If an existing chimney or flue is to be used this should be swept clean and be free of debris before an approved liner is installed and connected to the water heater.

2.1.5Flue down draught safety device

The draught diverter has already been provided with a temperature probe ex factory for signalling returning flue gases. The probe of the down draught

supervision must remain installed on the draught hood.

Connect the slide connectors of the down draught supervision to the thermocouple (see Figure 5) and install the head of the down draught supervision in the bracket; see Figure

5.The draught hood must be positioned in its normal place with the temperature probe at the front of the boiler. Pass the wiring of the temperature probe through the cable duct.

Note

The screws with which the down draught supervision has been mounted in the bracket are already in the bracket.
