Installation requirements

28 Paramount five 30 – 115
Caution
Installation of the appliance must be done by a qualified engineer
in accordance with prevailing local and national regulations.
5.2.1

Corrosion protection

Caution
When connecting heat generators to under-floor heating systems
employing plastic pipes which are not impervious to oxygen in
accordance to DIN 4726, heat exchangers must be used for
separation purposes.
Important
Prevention of damage in hot water heating systems caused by
corrosion on the water side or scaling.
5.2.2

Supply air openings

Caution
Keep the inflow area clear.
Never block or close off ventilation apertures. The inflow area for
combustion air must be kept clear.
Warning
Risk of damage!
The condensing boiler may only be installed in rooms with clean
combustion air. Foreign matter such as pollen must never filter
through the inlet apertures to reach the inside of the appliance.
The boiler must not be started up if there is heavy dust
development e.g. during construction work. There could be
damage to the boiler.
For ventilation-based operation of the Paramount, an adequately sized
opening for combustion air must be present in the place of installation. The
operator must be informed that this opening must never be closed or
blocked and that the connecting piece for combustion air on the upper side
of the Paramount must be kept free at all times.
5.2.3

Treating and preparing the heating water

Introduction
This section explains the conditions for heating water when Potterton
Commercial condensing boilers are used.
Important
Please note that the boiler Paramount has an aluminium silicon
heat exchanger.
Protecting the heat generator
Faults in the heating circuit caused by corrosion or limescale deposits
reduce the efficiency and functionality of the heat generator.
The quality of the fill water must meet specific requirements. You should
therefore take preventive measures in certain cases.
