The point of connection to the Electricity supply must be readily accessible and adja- cent to the appliance unless the appliance is installed in a bathroom when this must be sited outside the bathroom. The local gas region contractor connects the gas meter to the service pipe.
  • Page 8 Discharge pipework 1) The tundish must be installed directly below the discharge outlet connection of the boiler. The tundish must also be in a position visible to the occupants, and positioned away from any electrical devices. The discharge pipe from the tundish should termi- nate in a safe place where there is no risk to persons in the vicinity of the discharge and to be of metal.
  • Page 9 Air Release Points: These must be fitted at all high points where air naturally collects and must be sited to facilitate complete filling of the system. The appliance has an integral sealed expansion vessel to accommodate the increase of water value when the system is heated. It can accept up to 7 l (1.5 gal) of expansion water.
  • Page 10: Flue Connection

    Flue Connections Flue System The provision for satisfactory flue termination must be made as described in BS 5440-1. The appliance must be installed so that the flue terminal is exposed to outdoor air. The terminal must not discharge into another room or space such as an outhouse or lean-to.
