    I N S TA L L AT I O N FLUE CONNECTION During installation, a choice can be made between a ‘room sealed’ or ‘open flued’ system. The standard two pipe (eccentric) connections can be easily converted using the Mikrofill adaptor. The flue gas discharge outlet and air intake system should be installed by a competent installer according to applicable national and local standards and specifications.
  • Page 17: Flue Gas Data

    I N S TA L L AT I O N FLUE GAS DATA The flue gas outlet is located on top of the appliance and is designed for direct connection to a corrosion resistant flue pipe. The flue gas discharge pipe to be used should be air tight and water tight at the joints and connections, or should be seamless.

  • Page 21: Shut-Off Valves

    I N S TA L L AT I O N SHUT-OFF VALVES It is recommended that manual valves should be installed between the flow and return connections to the installation. VALVES (BOILERS IN CASCADE ARRANGEMENT) To prevent water flow through non-firing boilers, and hence unnecessary heat loss, a spring loaded non-return valve may be installed on the return pipework external to the boiler.
  • Page 22: Water Hardness

    I N S TA L L AT I O N WATER HARDNESS Water hardness levels are caused by dissolved minerals in the water and will vary geographically. The harder the water, the more likely that problems with precipitation (limescale deposits) will occur, causing permanent damage to the boiler and associated equipment.
