To the installer
▀
It is time to install your Effecta Smart. Try to follow our instructions for a safe installation. After
installation, be sure to instruct the customer on how the heating system and the boiler work, in
order to avoid unnecessary complications in the future
Set up
The boiler is positioned so that the surface temperature of flammable building material will not
exceed 176°F. The boiler should be positioned at least 6 inches (1.) from the wall. The distance
from the smoke connection to a
flammable wall with ignition protective
covering must be at least 12 inches
(4.). In order to clean the boiler, a
minimum clear space of 3 feet (2.) is
required in front of the boiler and on
the side at the convection section
and at any inspection panel in the
chimney. A passage with a minimum
width of 20 inches (3.) is required
along one of the long sides of the
boiler.
The boiler room
The boiler must be installed in a boiler
room or boiler house. The ceilings
and walls must be fitted with ignition
protective covering and the floor
must be made of non-combustible
material. Minimum ceiling height at the boiler is 6 feet (5.). The boiler room or boiler house must
be equipped with a fresh air intake with the a least the same dimensions as the chimnmey (6) or
with a
sufficiently large free sectional area to avoid low pressure in the boiler
room. It must be impossible to close the air intake.
Accumulator tank
Be sure that the accumulator tanks are well insulated. Effecta Smart 40 should have an
accumulator volume of at least 400 gallons, and Effecta Smart 55 should have an accumulator
volume of at least 800 gallons.
Chimney
The chimney should have a diameter of at least 6 / 7 inches, depending on model. If your
chimney is smaller, Effecta should be consulted before installation. The draught in the chimney
should be about 15 pa at low temperatures. It is important that the chimney is tested and
approved by a certified chimney sweep before a new boiler is installed. If the chimney has
a strong draught, a draft stabiliser (see page 31.) may need to be installed for good boiler
operation. If you have a tall chimney and an outgoing flue gas temperature below 320°F, there
is a risk of condensation in the chimney, which can damage the chimney in the long term. A
suitable temperature is 160-180°F three feet down into the chimney. Ask your local chimney
sweep for help to measure the temperature. If the chimney is tall and has a large area, a draught
that is too strong may mean high levels of flue gas and over ignition in the loading compartment.
If this is the case, a counter draught door must be installed
