Under no circumstances should “in warranty” work be undertaken without the authorisation of Hounsfield Boilers Ltd.
Corrosion inhibitor After installation of the new boiler the system must be flushed with a cleaner such as Defender Central Heating Cleaner to remove traces of flux residues, grease, metal, swarf, solder pieces and oils used during component manufacture. After flushing A corrosion inhibitor such as Defender Central Heating Inhibitor must be added to the system.
Boiler Location This boiler is only suitable for installing internally within a property at a suitable location onto a fixed rigid surface of the same size as the boiler and capable of supporting the boiler weight. The boiler must be installed on a flat level surface to ensure condensate does not enter the primary heat exchanger.

Priming the burner Press the burner reset button, the firing sequence will commence. During the firing sequence slacken the vent plug to purge air from the oil line. If ignition fails the burner will go to lockout; the reset button will be illuminated.
Flue options Conventional flue An adaptor to fit the top of the boiler is required, see accessory table below. A stainless steel flue liner suitable for use with oil fired boilers must be installed. Twin wall rigid or flexible liners are readily available at merchants. An air supply for combustion and ventilation is required as detailed in the table below.

Electrical detail Mains power connections The electrical supply to the boiler must be via a fused double pole isolating switch located near the boiler in order to provide easy access to the user after installation. Fuse rating should be 5amps. L1 Positive (brown) Connection to the boiler should be made using Earth (green/yellow)
Condensate pipe work A 22mm condensate drain trap (code OBT1-CO) is provided with the boiler, dependant on site conditions other options may be more appropriate, see below; these fittings are available from plumber’s merchants. Condensate can be discharged into an independent soak away, soil waste or rain water disposal systems within a property.
