Fault or breakdown
7.3
Extreme cold weather
The appliance has a large capacity siphonic condensate trap reducing the risk of condensate discharge freezing up in prolonged cold
temperatures.
Like the CondenseSure siphon accessory, the expanded siphonic operation discharges every 15 to 20 minutes, resulting in:
•
Increased velocity and flow rate.
•
With only 3 to 4 siphonic actions per hour, the condensate pipework is empty for longer.
•
Eliminated freezing potential.
– For a 48 hour period at -15 °C provided the installation parameters are adhered to.
To maximise the effectiveness of this product the installer should:
•
Keep the external pipework as short as possible.
•
Ensure a fall of at least 2.5° over horizontal sections.
•
Minimise the number of bends and connectors.
•
Remove burrs after cutting pipe.
•
Remove surplus solvent from the interior of the pipe.
However in certain instances where the condensate pipe work is run externally or in an unheated area, such as a garage, the
condensate pipe work can be at risk of freezing, even if well insulated.
A frozen/blocked condensate pipe will cause the appliance to shut down. For guidance on frozen condensate pipework please
contact Worcester, Bosch Group also available on our website are helpful videos in the Customer service section.
