WARRANTY CONDITIONS, GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

The following points must be met not only to comply with the warranty conditions, but also to ensure that the installation is
correct in terms of the applicable standards, safety and to ensure trouble-free operation of the boiler.
1. Biopel MINI boilers may only be installed by a company with a valid installation and maintenance licence. The installation must be
supported by a project in accordance with the applicable regulations.
2. The heating system must be filled with water that meets requirements of ČSN 07 7401 and especially its hardness must not exceed
the required parameters: The use of antifreeze is not recommended by the manufacturer.
3. Connection of the boiler to the system must be made in accordance with the applicable regulations and standards.
4. The flue pipe must be inspected by a chimney sweep company before the boiler is installed. An inspection report must be prepared,
including the basic parameters of the flue, including the diameter of the chimney, its length and the chimney draft.
5. The flue must be no longer than 1m and fitted with a sweep hole. The flue may only be longer if the chimney draft has been
measured and recorded no further than 30cm from the boiler and meets the minimum operating draft requirements, see chapter
Main Parameters and Dimensions.
6. The Biopel boiler must be installed in a separate boiler room specially adapted for heating. The boiler room must have sufficient
space for boiler installation and maintenance. Sufficient fresh air circulation for combustion must be ensured.
7. The boiler must never be installed in open spaces or balconies, in areas occupied by people such as the kitchen, living room,
bathroom, bedroom, in areas where explosive and flammable materials are present.
8. It is recommended to install the boiler on a concrete base made of fire-resistant material.
9. Around the boiler and the pellet hopper must be a minimum handling space, free of obstructions, namely: 60cm from the rear and
sides, 100cm from the front of the boiler and hopper.
10. Safe distance of 200 mm from combustible materials must be maintained during installation and operation of the boiler.
11. It is forbidden to store fuel behind the boiler or to stack it next to the boiler at a distance of less than 800 mm.
12. It is forbidden to store fuel between two boilers in the boiler room.
13. Distance between boiler and fuel min. 1000 mm must be observed or place the fuel in a different room than where the boiler is
installed.
14. The warranty fuel is considered to be wood pellets only, with a diameter of 6mm or more, with the parameters specified in the
instructions for use.
15. The manufacturer is not liable for the quality of the fuel, in terms of combustion quality, ash quantity or frequency of boiler cleaning
due to the fact that these are only influenced by external factors such as pellet quality, dust and moisture in pellets, chimney draft
or correct combustion settings.
16. It is forbidden to use flammable liquids (petrol, alcohol, etc.) to fire the boiler.
17. It is forbidden to overheat the boiler in any way during operation.
18. If there is a risk of flammable vapours or gases entering the boiler room or during work that creates a temporary risk of fire or
explosion (gluing floor coverings, painting with flammable paints, etc.), the boiler must be shut down well in advance of work
commencement.
19. The boiler must be thoroughly cleaned after the end of the heating season, including the flue gas outlet. The boiler room must be
kept clean and dry.
20. It is forbidden to interfere with the boiler's construction and electrical installation.
21. The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by improper adjustment or improper operation of the product.
22. Parts subject to wear and tear are not covered by the standard warranty period. These parts are: sealing cord, grenamat board,
igniter, burner grate, lambda sensor. However, these parts will function for a long time if the boiler and its components are operated
in accordance with the instructions for use. These parts are considered as consumables and are covered by a manufacturer's
warranty of 6 months.
23. The manufacturer is not liable for rust on the boiler and its components, as this is always and only due to external influences such
as moisture in the room, fuel or due to unprofessional installation without protecting the boiler against low temperature corrosion.
24. The boiler must be protected against low return water temperature by a valve that prevents cold water from entering the boiler.
The minimum acceptable return water temperature is set by the manufacturer at 55°C.
25. The manufacturer is not responsible for condensation of cold air in the flue gas passage, as this must be prevented by correct
installation of the flue gas passage and correct adjustment of the boiler combustion process.
26. The manufacturer is not liable for smoke leakage from the boiler into the room if this is caused by low chimney draft, incorrect
boiler installation or incorrect adjustment of the combustion process.
27. The manufacturer is not liable for damage to parts caused by handling, transport, incorrect adjustment or misuse, or other external
causes not directly related to the function of the individual boiler components.
28. The boiler installation, boiler additional devices and correct boiler set-up and start-up are always the responsibility of the
installation company who sold the boiler to the end customer.
29. If it has been agreed that a third party (e.g., The so-called commissioning company) will hold the warranty conditions, then this
must be stated and agreed by 3 parties, namely the boiler dealer, the boiler commissioning company and the end customer. All of
the above-mentioned parties must agree to this and their signatures must be provided in the warranty addendum.
30. The manufacturer is not responsible for the incorrect selection of boiler power to the heating losses of the building (e.g., placing a
boiler with too little or too much power in relation to the demand).
