PLACE OF INSTALLATION RESIDENCE COLONNA CONDENS boilers can be When installing the boiler, allow sufficient space installed in any indoor location provided the flue gases around it to access all safety and control devices are adequately removed and comburent air drawn in from and to permit easy maintenance.
Sludge, limescale and other contaminants in water can cause irreversible damage to boilers even in relatively short times, and despite the use of top quality materials in their manufacture.

WATER IN CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEMS: INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE DESIGN, INSTALLATION AND MANAGEMENT OF CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEMS 1. Chemical and physical characteristics of water The chemical and physical characteristics of water used in central heating systems must conform to the requirements of EN 14868 standard and to the following tables: ALUMINIUM BOILERS ALUMINIUM BOILERS...

2.2 Reconditioning old central heating systems If a boiler has to be replaced, do not refill the entire central heating circuit if the quality of water in it conforms to require- ments. If the quality of water fails to conform to requirements, either recondition the old water or separate the water circuits (water in the boiler circuit must conform to requirements).
WATER CONNECTIONS Before installing the boiler, thoroughly flush out all the pipes of the central heating circuit. Connect the boiler to the water supply with a shut-off cock upstream. Connect the condensate drain pipe to a domestic water drain in accordance with national and local legislation and stand- ards.
Page 23
Condensate collection Locate the corrugated condensate drain pipe (S) at the rear of the burner and connect it to a domestic water drain in accordance with national and local legislation and standards. Always maintain a slope “i” of over 3° and ensure that the diameter of any hose used is greater than that of the boiler’s own condensate drain pipe.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS All the boiler’s internal electrical connections have been pre-wired and tested in the factory. Only the following connections are needed for installa- tion. - Connect the boiler to the mains power supply (single phase 230V-50Hz) using the cable (1) from the rear of the appliance.

OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR Correct positioning of the outside temperature sensor is essential to proper indoor temperature control. The sensor must be installed outside the building to be heated, about 2/3 of the way up a NORTH or NORTH-WEST facing wall, well clear of any flues, doors, windows and out of direct sunlight.
FUEL CONNECTIONS The boiler must be connected to the methane gas supply in compliance with the relevant standards. Perform the following checks before making the connec- tion. - Check that the boiler is compatible with the type of gas supplied. - Check that the gas supply pipes have been thoroughly cleaned.

FILLING AND DRAINING THE SYSTEM RESIDENCE COLONNA CONDENS boilers incorporate a CH system fill cock. Make sure that the system filling cock (3) is closed before you start to fill or drain the system. FILLING THE STORAGE CYLINDER - Make sure that the storage cylinder drain cock (4) is closed.
Page 32
DRAINING Switch the electricity supply OFF at the control panel and at the system’s main switch before starting to drain the boiler or storage cylinder. DRAINING THE CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEM - Make sure that the CH system fill cock (3) is closed. - Close the shut-off cocks for the central heating and domestic hot water circuits.
PREPARING FOR INITIAL START-UP Initial start-up must be performed by an authorised and qualified heating engineer from a r Technical Assistance Centre. Remove the front panel from the boiler and perform the following checks before switching the boiler on or testing any of its functions.
Page 34
Every time electrical power is switched on, the boiler performs an automatic venting cycle that lasts about 12 minutes. Throughout this cycle the two digits of the display flash alternately. At the end of the automatic venting cycle, check the pressure on the gauge (7) again. If neces- sary, turn the boiler off at the mains power switch and at the control panel and refill the CH circuit as instructed on page 31.
Page 35
SUMMER ( ): With the function selector set to Summer, the boiler functions only in domestic hot water mode. The temperature gauge (1) shows the temperature of the hot water inside the storage cylinder. °C To ensure correct functioning, set the room tem- perature thermostat to its minimum setting.
Page 36
STARTING UP THE BOILER If a timer or room thermostat is installed, these must be switched on and adjusted to a temperature higher than current room temperature before the boiler can start up. The boiler will remain in stand-by mode until the burner ignites following a request for heat.
SHUTDOWN If you are going away for a short period of time like a weekend or a short holiday, etc., turn the function selector to “ ” OFF/RESET. The digital display reads out the message shown along- side. Because electrical power and the gas supply to the boiler °C both remain on, the boiler is protected by the following systems:...
WARNING LEDS AND ERRORS THE MAIN CONTROL PANEL Green LED (3) Off = boiler in stand-by, burner out On = burning lit, boiler functioning normally. Red LED (5) Safety shutdown: an error code flashes on the display. Burner lockout: the red LED lights and an error code flashes on the display.
Dealing with error AL41 Check the pressure on the control panel pressure gauge. If it is below 0.5 bar, proceed as follows. - Turn the function selector to “ ” - Remove the top front panel from the boiler by pulling it forwards.

Example: if the calculated value is 1.3, it lies between the 1 and 1.5 curves. Choose the nearest curve, in this case 1.5. Adjust the trimmer under the DHW temperature setting knob to select KT. The following KT values can be set: standard system: 1,0 - 1,5 - 2,0 - 2,5 - 3,0 under-floor system 0,2 - 0,4 - 0,6 - 0,8.
SETTINGS All settings have already been made in the factory. If the boiler needs new settings after repairs have been made, the gas valve changed, or after a conversion from methane to LPG, proceed as follows. The settings for minimum fan speed, maximum CH fan speed, maximum DHW fan speed, and ignition slow fan speed must be made in the sequence given and must only be made by qualified personnel.

When supplied, the boiler is configured with the settings shown in the table below. These settings can be changed if necessary to comply with specific system requirements or regional emission control legislation. Refer to the following graphs to adjust the settings. 30 ISC Heating curve (Qnheating) –...
