Contents FoReWoRD We would like to thank you for purchasing a high efficiency Firebird condensing oil boiler. This instruction manual is produced for the reference and guidance of qualified installation engineers, preferably OFTEC (Oil Firing Technical Association) registered. EU legislation governs the manufacture, operation and efficiency of all domestic central heating oil boilers.
saFety safety - conformity was demonstrated by meeting the HealtH & saFety inFoRMation following standards: The installer should be aware of his/her responsibilities under the current, local Health and Safety at Work Act. The EN60335-1: 2012: Household and Similar Electrical Appliances interests of safety are best served if the boiler is installed and - Safety - Part 1: general Requirements commissioned by a competent, qualified engineer, OFTEC...
stanDaRDs & Regulations to ensure the highest standards of installation & safety, in addition, the work must comply with relevant it is important that the boiler be installed in compliance building regulations for oil fired boilers and oil storage with the following regulations where applicable. it tanks.
2.1 - stanDaRDs & Regulations - ConDensate DisPosal Firebird condensing boilers, when in condensing mode, extract more heat from the flue products and the resulting condensate which is mildly acidic, needs to be drained from the boiler via a condensate pipe to the drainage system.

2.2 - stanDaRDs & Regulations - Flue Regulations BalanCeD Flue siting The terminal should be positioned to avoid combustion products entering the building or accumulating in stagnant pockets around buildings. The terminal must be protected by a guard if it is less than 2 metres above ground level or in a position where any person has access to it (i.e.

BalanCeD Flue BoileRs The Firebird boiler may be set for room-sealed flue operation using a Firebird condensing balanced flue kit. This kit does not draw combustion air from inside the room. it is drawn from outside, direct to the burner by an air pipe supplied with the boiler.

Please note that only Firebird flue kits should be used for flue installations.
2.4 - stanDaRDs & Regulations - oil suPPly oil stoRage tanK siting For installation in scotland, Building Standard Part F applies. This requires compliance with BS 5410 Part 1: Consult OFTEC Manuals 2014 and BS 5410 Part 2: 2013.
