resistant gloves with good grip to protect against sharp
edges and ensure good grip when handling appliance.
Positioning of Appliance for Final Installation – above
worktop, foreseeable obstructions etc.
This appliance is deemed to be a one person lift when
removed from the carton. Fit bracket securely onto wall
before lifting appliance into position. Obtain firm grip on
front and sides of appliance, lift upwards, onto worktop if
practicable. Ensure stable balance achieved and lift
upwards to position in place on bracket. If 2 persons
positioning onto bracket obtain firm grip at front and
sides/base of boiler. Ensure co-ordinated movements
during 2 person lifts to ensure equal spread of weight of
load. Ensure safe lifting techniques are used – keep back
straight – bend using legs - when lifting load from floor
level. Do not twist – reposition feet instead. Keep boiler
as close as possible to body throughout lift to minimise
strain on back. Avoid upper body/top heavy bending - do
not lean forward/sideways. Always use assistance if
required. Recommend wear suitable cut resistant gloves
with good grip to protect against sharp edges and
ensure good grip when handling appliance.
Positioning of Appliance for Final Installation – within
compartment etc. restricting installation.
This appliance is deemed to be a one person lift when
removed from the carton. Fit bracket securely onto wall
before lifting appliance into position. Obtain firm grip on
front and sides of appliance, lift upwards, onto worktop if
practicable. Ensure stable balance achieved and lift
upwards to drop into place onto bracket. If 2 persons posi-
tioning onto bracket obtain firm grip at front and sides/
base of boiler. Ensure coordinated movements during 2
person lifts to ensure equal spread of weight of load. If 1
person positioning onto bracket recommend obtain firm
grip supporting base of boiler. Ensure safe lifting tech-
niques are used – keep back straight – bend using legs -
when lifting load from floor level. Do not twist – reposition
feet instead. Keep boiler as close as possible to body
throughout lift to minimise strain on back. Always use
assistance if required. Recommend wear suitable cut resist-
ant gloves with good grip to protect against sharp edges
and ensure good grip when handling appliance.
Positioning of Appliance for Final Installation – in
roof space restricting installation.
This appliance is deemed to be a one person lift when

Fig. 4.1 Distances during installation (dimensions in mm)
The boiler should be mounted on a flat and vertical area
of wall of sufficient area for the boiler plus the required
clearances for installation and servicing (Fig. 4.1). These
are shown on the installation template supplied with the
boiler and are:
– 5 mm either side of the boiler
– 180 mm below the boiler
– 165 mm* above the boiler when utilising the 100 mm
outside diameter flue
– 246 mm* above the boiler when utilising the 125 mm
outside diameter flue
– 500 mm in front of the boiler to enable easy access
for servicing (may be provided by an opening door)

If the boiler is to be installed in a timber
framed building, it should be fitted in accord-
ance with "IGE/UP/7 Edition 2 Gas installa-
tions in timber framed and ligh steel framed
buildings".
