Important Installation Notes
The boiler is suitable for use with fully pumped
open vented and sealed systems with an indirect
coil type high efficiency cylinder.
The gas type, supply size and pressure must be
checked for suitability before connection.
Failure to install the condensate discharge
pipework correctly could affect the reliable
operation of the boiler.
For the boiler to operate correctly all air must be
vented from the system prior to commissioning
and the system itself must be suitably vented.
The system must be designed to always provide
a route for water to circulate between the boiler
flow and return.
For optimum boiler
performance must meet the requirements shown
on Page 23.
Failure to flush and add inhibitor to the system
may invalidate the boiler warranty.
Failure to commission the boiler correctly may
result in the installer being charged for any visits
made by Potterton.
