1.4 Observe these instructions for space
heating water
Unsuitable heating system water can promote the forma-
tion of scale or sludge, which affects system efficiency.
It can also cause corrosion and reduce life of the heat
exchanger.
– You must follow Buderus guidelines for boiler water
quality.
– Thoroughly flush the system prior to filling.
– Use of a Buderus approved boiler cleaner is
recommended.
– Never use salt bedding exchangers to soften the water.
– Do not use inhibitors or other additives unless approved
by Buderus for that purpose!
– When frost protection of the heating system is desired,
only use Buderus-approved Aluminum-safe antifreeze.
– When using oxygen-permeable pipes, e. g. for floor
heating systems, you must separate the system using
heat exchangers.
– The maximum permissible flow rate of the
GB142-24/30 this is 11 GPM (gal./min.)(= 42 l/min.), for
the GB142-45 is 15 GPM (= 57 l/min.) and for the
GB142-60 is 20 GPM (= 76 l/min.).
1.5 Tools, materials and additional
equipment
For the installation and maintenance of the boiler you will
need the standard tools for space heating, gas and water
fitting.
In addition, a handtruck with a fastening belt is useful.
