Pipework
Copper tubing to BSEN 1057 is recom-
mended for water pipes. Jointing should be
either with capillary soldered or with com-
pression fittings.
Where possible pipes should have a gradi-
ent to ensure air is carried naturally to air
release points and water flows naturally to
drain taps.
The appliance has a built-in automatic air
release valve, it should be ensured as far as
possible that the appliance heat exchanger
is not a natural collecting point for air.
Except where providing useful heat, pipes
should be insulated to prevent heat loss and
to avoid freezing.
Particular attention should be paid to pipes
passing through ventilated spaces in roofs
and under floors.
By-pass
The appliance includes an automatic by-
pass valve which protects the main heat
exchanger in case of reduced or interrupted
water circulation through the heating system
due to the closing of thermostatic valves or
cock-type valves within the system.
The by-pass is calibrated to assure a mini-
mum flow of 200-300 lts/hr through the main
heat exchanger.
If you are installing a system that includes
thermostatic radiator valves (TRV) and/or
small bore (8-10 mm) it may be necessary
to fit an external by-pass to facilitate correct
operation of the boiler.
The fitting of an external bypass helps to
prevent and limit system noise.
Air release points
These must be fitted a tall high points where
air will natural collect and must be sited to
facilitate complete filling of the system.
