Connect the Gas Supply

1. Ensure that the gas supply is isolated at
the meter.
2. Solder the gas tail (supplied) to main gas
supply before connecting the tail to the
gas cock.
To prevent blow lamp damage to the
wiring and condensate trap, any
soldering of gas pipework must be
done away from the boiler.
Do not turn the gas supply on until
soundness test and boiler installation
are complete.
4.5

Connect the Water System

1. Connect system pipework to the boiler.
Compression fittings must be used to
allow future disconnection.
We recommend using two spanners
when making the connections.
Heat from a blowlamp could damage
the case seals.
4.6 Connect the Condensate
System
1. The condensate connection is a 21.5 mm
PP pipe. To allow access for servicing,
we recommend the first connection to
the system is a 'push fit' type.
2. Prime the condensate system to seal the
trap.
Method 1 - Pour 1/2 litre of water down
through the flue products (inner) tube at
the terminal.
Method 2 - Pour 1/2 litre of water via a
plastic tube inserted into one of the flue
sample points on the flue elbow.
3. Check the the condensate disposal
system for soundness.
