General Information The way CTC EcoFlex is designed makes it very simple to install. The small dimensions mean that it can be installed in boiler rooms, which are often very small. Most pipe fittings are on the top of the boiler. Electrical installation is to a terminal block behind the control panel.
General Information Design CTC EcoFlex The principle boiler body components are made of welded steel plates. The boiler is pressure and tightness tested at the factory, insulated with skin-tight heat insulation and clad with powder coated steel sheets. Ändr.meddel. Datum Ändrad från...

Summer basement heating Background heating in basements/recreation room/bathrooms is often required in the summer months, to avoid damp air. Your EcoFlex can provide this by you setting a “minimum permitted primary flow temperature” to a suitable temperature (15–65°C). See the Installer/Settings/Setting heating/ Min Primfl.

End user information Load monitor EcoFlex has a load monitor. If the system is fitted with a current sensor, the house’s main fuses are then continuously monitored to ensure they are not overloaded. If overloading occurs, an electrical step on the electric cartridge heater is disconnected.

Cleaning the boiler All combustion using solid fuels, even though automated, normally requires a little more maintenance and service than oil fired units. CTC EcoFlex has been designed to minimise the need for maintenance. Ash emptying is carried out as required. Cleaning of the boiler’s convection surfaces (combustion chamber and heating surfaces) should be carried out regularly, cleaning of the boiler’s combustion chamber should be carried out as...

15 kW is it in exceptional cases possible to use stainless steel chimney of 90 mm diametet. To less cross section area of the chimney results in insufficient draught in the boiler which may lead to operation disturbances. Recommended chimney draught is 0,1 - 2,5 mBar. CTC EcoFlex...

The pellet tube outlet can alternatively be moved up into the hood by the connection of a 1.5 metres feed auger. The feeding time for external feed auger is on the CTC EcoFlex factory pre-set to 30 seconds. By the connection of a feed auger from other manufacturers, the feeding time might need some adjustment.
The safety valve drain pipe must be uncovered and visible. Possible exhausting high temperature hot water must without danger be removed (Caution! Risk of scalding!). Return temperature The temperature of the return flow (at connection number 4, page 50)must not be lower than 50 °C. CTC EcoFlex...
Connection of DHW storage tank (water heater) If the CTC EcoFlex will be combined together with DHW storage tank, it is of high importance that it’s size and power capacity corresponds to the installed boiler output. The installation must correspond to existing building regulations.
