5.0CONNECTING THE BOILER

5.1Place the boiler on its back.

5.2Remove the boiler base plate, four screws (fig. 16). Remove the plugs fitted to the boiler water connections.

Remove the bag of sealing washers from the boiler pipework. Remove the front panel by gripping on both sides, sliding up and pulling away from the main boiler.

5.3Lift boiler as shown in fig. 15 onto the top studs and fit supplied nuts and washers hand tight.

5.4Lift at bottom to engage the water and gas connections. Tighten central heating flow and return, and the domestic hot water inlet and outlet, using appropriate sealing washers. Tighten the gas union.

5.5Screw the pressure relief valve adaptor provided, through the jig bracket into the valve, using the remaining washer (fig. 17).

5.6Connect the pressure relief valve discharge pipe (15 mm) to the outside of the building, where possible over a drain. The discharge must be such that it will not be hazardous to occupants or passers-by cause damage to external electric components or wiring. The pipe should be directed towards the wall.

It must not discharge above an entrance or window, or any type of public access. The installer must consider that the overflow could discharge boiling water.
