The (de-) aeration must be positioned downwards (see figure 9.5.3.a). ATAG advices to install measure points on all gas line parts to have the possibility to check for pressure loss. example propane installation figure 9.4.3.a Pre-pressure must be adjusted to 30 mbar by means of the house pressure regulator. The maximum permitted closing pressure may be 5 mbar higher than the maximum pre-pressure.

Pull the flue assembly towards the bend, locating the inner duct into the seal joint on the bend and secure the flue assembly to the bend by pushing fully home. 8. Make good the outside wall by fitting the outside sealing collar (grey) onto the location provided immediately behind the flue terminal grille. Make good the inside wall using the inside sealing collar (white) if required. When mounting the flue gas system, pay attention to the flow direction (See Flue figure 9.6.2.b). It is not permitted to mount a system upside down and will lead to complaints. Use a soap solvent or special grease (supplied in the accessory bag with the boiler) to simplify the fitting.
