Placing the boiler

This section explains how to set up and position the boiler correctly at
the installation location.
4.1

Installation location requirements

DANGER: Danger posed by explosive and combustible
materials!
▶ Never use or store easily flammable materials (paper,
curtains, clothing, thinners, paints etc.) near the
boiler.
▶ Maintain a clearance of 16 inches (415 mm) from the
boiler.
NOTICE: Risk of system damage due to freezing!
▶ Install the heating system that it will not be exposed
to freezing conditions.
NOTICE: Damage to the building due to insufficient load
capacity of the floor!
▶ Before setting the boiler up, check the load capacity
of the floor.
NOTICE: Boiler damage due to contaminated
combustion air.
▶ Do not use cleaning agents that contain chlorine or
halogenated hydrocarbons (e.g. in spray cans,
solvents and cleaning agents, paints, glues).
▶ Avoid excessive dust accumulation (building dust).
4.2

Clearances

Position the boiler with the recommended wall clearances. Reducing
these to the minimum clearances makes the boiler more difficult to
access.
The base or foundation on which the boiler is to stand must be perfectly
flat and level. The boiler may stand on a base made of combustible
material, but not on carpet.

Leveling the boiler

The boiler must be leveled horizontally and vertically to prevent air
pockets forming inside.
▶ Level the boiler both horizontally and vertically using a spirit level.
▶ Insert metal shims underneath if necessary.
NOTICE: Risk of system damage due to contamination!
▶ If the boiler is not to be installed immediately, protect
the connections from entry of dirt.
