Boiler installation and commissioning tips
Do not forget to remove the transit caps and plugs from the boiler connections these are fitted to every
boiler.
Keep the boiler clear of dust during installation and in particular do not allow any dust or debris to enter
the top of the boiler where the flue connection is made. It is recommended that you put a dust sheet over
the top of the boiler until you are ready to make the flue connection.
Because every boiler is fired and tested live at the factory, a small amount of water remains within the
boiler. It is possible for this water to initially cause the pump to seize. It is therefore recommended that
the pump rotor be manually turned to free its rotation before turning the boiler on.
Remember to release the auto air purge before filling the boiler. See the instructions to identify the
location of this device.
Do not remove the cap of the pressure test point of the air switch (top right side of the boiler).
You are strongly advised to flush out the system both cold and hot in order to remove system and
installation debris.
It is also sensible to initially fire and commission the boiler before connecting any external controls such
as a room thermostat. By this method if you have a subsequent problem following the addition of an
external control you can eliminate the boiler from your fault analysis.
Do not forget to range rate the boiler to suit the system requirements. This procedure is covered in the
commissioning section of the installation manual.
If the boiler is fitted with a digital programmer, when setting the times for automatic operation, remember
that for every "ON" time there must be an "OFF" time to follow and that on every occasion you enter a
time you must also indicate which days that you want the boiler to follow the timed settings.
Some products incorporate an anti cycling time delay. It is normal when first switching the boiler on for
the boiler to operate on heating for a few seconds then switch off. After 3–4 minutes has elapsed the
boiler will then re ignite and operate perfectly normally. The ignition delay cycle does not prevent normal
operation of the boiler to provide domestic hot water.
If you are in any doubts as to the installation or operation of the boiler please read the instruction
manuals thoroughly and then if necessary contact Biasi UK for advice and assistance.
Please remember that if you are in any doubt about the installation of this product you can contact our

  • Page 15 The boiler is fitted with an automatic by-pass valve (26 on page 3), which protects the primary heat exchanger. In case of excessive reduction or total blockage of water circulation in the central heating system owing to closure of the thermostatic valves or system component cocks, the by-pass valve ensures a minimum flow of water through the primary heat exchanger.
  • Page 16 For unusual locations special procedures may be necessary and BS 6798-1987 gives detailed guidance on this aspect. A compartment used to enclose the appliance must be designed specifically for this purpose. This appliance is not suitable for external installation. 2.3 Flue system The provision for satisfactory flue termination must be made as described in BS 5440-1 1990.
  • Page 17 ∗ specific manufacturer requirements 2.4 Gas supply Gas meter is connected to the service pipe by the local gas region or a local gas region contractor. If the gas supply for the boiler serves other appliances ensure that an adequate supply is available both to the boiler and the other appliance when they are in use at the same time.
  • Page 18 The appliance has an integral sealed expansion vessel to accommodate the increase of water volume when the system is heated. It can accept up to 7 lts (1,5 gals.) of expansion water. If the heating circuit has an unusually high water content, calculate the total expansion and add additional sealed expansion vessel with adequate capacity.
  • Page 19 WARNING: this appliance must be earthed. External wiring to the appliance must be carried out by a competent person and be in accordance with the current I.E.E. Regulations and local regulations which apply. The boiler is supplied for connection to a 240 V˜ 50 Hz supply. The supply must be fused at 3A. The method of connection to the electricity supply must facilitate complete electrical isolation of the appliance by the use of a fused double pole isolator having a contact separation of at least 3 mm in all poles or alternatively, by the use of a 3A fused three pin plug and unswitched shuttered socket outlet both...
  • Page 20 For the installation proceed as follows: - The boiler must be fixed to a strong wall (fig. 3.2). fig. 3.2 - The dimensions for the exhaust fume duct detailed in section 3.5, and the correct procedures for installing the duct, depicted in the instruction leaflet included with the flue kit, must be complied with during installation.
  • Page 21 The latter option in particular, not only cleans out the system, but also has an anti - corrosive effect by promoting formation of a protective skin on metal surfaces and neutralising gases present in the water. We recommend the use of a suitable universal inhibitory to protect the central heating system from corrosion.
  • Page 22 Kit 1 allows the flue to be fitted on any side of the boiler and it can be shortened to a minimum of 0.5 m. Use of extensions allows the exhaust fume duct to be lengthened. For all models the greatest total length is 2,65.
  • Page 23 External 3 A fuse or fused plug with same current rating is recommended. 2 Connect the earth wire (yellow/green). Connection of a room thermostat The room thermostat must be connected to the terminal block situated next to the control panel. When connecting any type of room thermostat, the jumper present between 1 and 2 must be removed.
  • Page 24 3.7 Frost protection It is not possible to fit a conventional frostat with this boiler. However, you can introduce a suitable antifreeze solution into the system to protect the boiler from freeze conditions. Moreover an optional antifreeze kit is available through your authorized dealer. 3.8 Overall dimensions fig.

  • Page 27 Continue filling the system. The actual reading should ideally be 1 bar and not less than 0,3 bar. Close all air release valves on central heating system. Inspect the system for water soundness and remedy any leaks discovered. When the installation and filling are completed turn on the central heating system and run it until the temperature has reached the boiler operating temperature.
  • Page 28 The boiler will now go through an ignition sequence and the burner will light. If during the ignition attempt period the boiler falls to light, the full sequence control p.c.b. will go to lockout and the shut-down warning light will appears. To reset the boiler depress the reset push button.
