The following also applies in Switzerland:
The boilers have been tested and approved by the SVGW
in accordance with the requirements of the Clean Air
Regulation (LRV, Appendix 4) and the Fire Safety
Regulations Guide from the VKF. During installation,
observe the guidelines for installing and operating gas

3.4

Heating water quality

As pure water cannot be used for the heat transfer, water
quality is important. Poor water quality can damage
heating systems due to scale formation and corrosion.
Water quality is an essential factor for
increased efficiency, functional reliability,
long service life and for maintaining the
constant operational condition of a heating
system.
B Record the values listed in the operator's
log to verify the water quality.
3.5

Combustion air connection / flue

connection

The installation room must be equipped with the required
combustion air apertures.
For open flue operation, the following applies:
Provide combustion air apertures in accordance with the
following table.
Gas condensing Aperture cross-section

GB402-320-5
GB402-395-6
GB402-470-7
GB402-545-8
GB402-620-9
Tab. 6 Combustion air apertures
For balanced flue operation, the following applies:
For ventilation of the installation room, there must be one
upper and one lower aperture to the outside of at least
2
150 cm or alternatively lines to the outside that feature
equivalent cross-sections in terms of flow.
B Never position objects in front of these apertures. Keep
the combustion air apertures free at all times.
3.6

Combustion air quality

B Keep the supply of combustion air free of corrosive
substances (e.g. halogenated hydrocarbons that
contain chlorine or fluorine compounds).
This will help prevent corrosion.
