    On trade are available programmable room thermostats: most of them allow to make a weekly programming of various temperature levels, besides special programs for various purposes. We suggest to choose original ITALTHERM accessories. Typical use Preliminary operations f Firstly, the knob 12 should be on the position ...
  • Page 10: Temperature Adjustment

    Temperature adjustment Note: correct adjustment leads to creating the conditions for energy saving. f Heating system adjustment: by rotating the knob 12 along the scale 10, the setting of the heating system temperature is made (the value, during the adjustment, is shown on the display 5). Generally, in the deep cold season and/or with poor building thermal insulation (or if you notice that the burner stays on for a long time, but the room temperature rises too slowly) prefer higher settings.

    Boilers must be always equipped with original accessories only. ITALTHERM Srl is not responsible for damages caused by the incorrect, wrong or unreasonable use of not original materials. The burner doesn’t turn on f if the room thermostat (or programmable room thermostat, or similar) is installed, check that it is really requiring the room heating;...

    • completely empty the hot and cold sanitary water system, including the sanitary circuit and the tank of the domestic water storage. Remark: the boiler is equipped with a system which protects the main components from the excep- tional cases of mechanical lock, due to the inactivity in presence of water and scale. The anti- locking function can’t work in Safety shut off mode, because of the lack of electrical supply.
  • Page 13: Ambient Anti-Frost" Function

    “Ambient Anti-Frost” Function If the building relevant to the boiler remains unoccupied during cold weather periods, you should con- sider the chance to extend the protection against freezing to the whole heating system (and therefore to the rooms) besides the boiler itself. Also for this function, the boiler must be receiving gas and elec- tricity, and the system pressure must be correct.

    ITALTHERM S.r.l. will not be held responsible for consequent damages. Instruct the User about the antifreeze function of the boiler and about the antifreeze product added in the heating system.
  • Page 16: Siphon Overflow Drain

    Siphon overflow drain The boiler’s siphon is equipped with a supplementary safety discharge SCD that protects the burner in the very situation in which the condense does not from correctly from the drain pipe downstream from the siphon. Since this is easily accessible from the rear of the boiler, evaluate the opportunity to use it or not before installing the boiler, by connecting to it a section of flexible hose 1 suitable for condense.

    (consider that 1 mm of limestone incrustations reduces of 18% the thermal exchange of the heating element on which it has been formed). ITALTHERM guarantees its products only if the characteristics of the water comply with UNI 8065, re- ported also in laws on energy saving.
  • Page 19: System Filling And Pressuring

    System filling and pressuring Once all system connections have been carried out, proceed with the filling of the heating system and of the DHW storage. This operation should be made with care, respecting the following steps: The operations to completely purge the air from the heating system and from the storage coil, require the activation of the boiler, therefore the final purging must be performed, by qualified technicians, during the first starting up.
  • Page 20: Gas Connection

    Gas connection Due to various installation possibilities, the gas cock 3 supplied with the original Connections Kit has a sim- ple male Ø ½” connection, facing the rear of the boiler. The gas pipe 4, upstream the gas cock 3, should be sup- plied by the installer.

    ITALTHERM S.r.l. declines any responsibility for damages to persons, animals or things caused by the faulty or missing connection of the boiler earthing and by failure to comply with the rules.
  • Page 22: General Indications

    General indications To grant the functionality and efficiency of the appliance it is indispensable to realize inlet and outlet ducts using flue accessories specific for condensing boilers. WARNING: the specific flue accessories components for condensing boilers, especially the parts which are in touch with the flues inlet, are so projected because they are made with plastic ma- terials acids resistant, but because of their nature, they are not suitable to resist to the higher temperature of the flues of the traditional boilers.

    Addendum Outdoor Sensor Kit Installation and setting The Outdoor Sensor manages automatically the CH flow temperature** as a function of the outdoor temperature, thus avoiding the user to adjust it manually. This function is also named "shifting tempera- ture". that's the temperature of the heating elements. Don't mistake it with the room temperature (managed by the room thermo- stat or by the Remote Control, but not by the boiler) that doesn't depend on the first one.
  • Page 52: Remote Control Kit

    Remote Control Kit This remote control is more than a simple room thermostat. Thanks to this, it is possible to manage the boiler in all its set- tings like DHW and CH temperature adjustment, boiler reset in case of boiler block, and of course it works as a room thermo- stat both in manual and weekly program mode.
