I n t r o d u c t i o n
The Esprit is a wall mounted, room sealed, condensing combination
boiler, featuring full sequence automatic spark ignition and fan assisted
combustion.
Due to the high efficiency of the boiler, condensate is produced from the
flue gases and this is drained to a suitable disposal point through the
plastic waste pipe at the lower rear of the boiler. A condensate 'plume'
will also be visible at the flue terminal.
The Esprit is a combination boiler providing both central heating and
instantaneous domestic hot water.
