Fitting the Filling Loop Kit

1. The filling loop kit supplied with the boiler can be

connected to the taps on the wall plate at this point.

(Either one of two types of loop kit will be supplied -

both function in the same way, differing only in detail).

2. The filling loop is to be connected between the mains

cold water inlet and central heating return isolation taps.

3. The loop and valves must be connected as described

in the instructions supplied with it.

4. Note the orientation of the flow direction arrows on

the stop valve and double check/stop valves.

5. Remove the blanking caps from the mains cold water

inlet and central heating return isolation taps (Fig. 42a).

Connect the valves to the taps, ensuring that the fibre

washers supplied are used on these joints.

6. Connect the temporary loop, ensuring that the seals

are fitted.

To fill, test and flush if required (Fig. 42b)

7. Take the blanking plugs from the kit, and using washers

supplied with the boiler, connect them to the central

heating flow and return taps, and the cold inlet tap. The

system can now be filled by opening the cold inlet supply

and stop valves.

8. If desired a suitable gauge can be connected to one of

the taps so that the system may be accurately

pressurised.

9. All joints, fittings and system components can now be

examined for soundness at operating pressure.

10.

The system can be flushed by turning off the central

heating tap and connecting a suitable fitting to the loose

nut. From the fitting a hose pipe can be run to the

nearest convenient drain. When the tap is reopened the

system will flush.

11.

Remove the blanking plug(s), pressure gauge and

flushing equipment from the appliance if used.

12.

Continue with the installation and commissioning.

13.

The filling loop must be disconnected and completely

removed after the system is pressurised.

14.

Depending upon the type of kit supplied either hand

Fig. 42b

tighten the two previously removed blanking caps to the

stop valve and double check valve, or use the caps

supplied in the kit.
