TECHNICAL FEATURES AND DIMENSIONS 2.4. Fuel The ECOWOOD series is designed for use with solid fuel of biogenic or fossil nature. This means different types of natural wood, solid residues of organic nature coming from trees or agricultural plants, wood briquettes of various types. Carbon or other similar fossil fuels are allowed, but only in combination with wood and maximum 20% volume ratio at every load.
BOILER MOUNTING 3. BOILER MOUNTING 3.1. Transportation and delivery The boiler is delivered on wood pallet, well positioned with metal plates. Remove them carefully by unscrewing the screws holding them in place. The loading and unloading of the boiler must be performed with a forklift or a crane. The boiler is very heavy.
BOILER MOUNTING 3.2.2. Boiler room dimensions The boiler must be placed on a horizontal plane, with adequate mechanical resistance to support the boiler’s weight. The boiler must be positioned in the room in such a way so that it is easily accessible from all the sides.

BOILER MOUNTING Each boiler should be connected to an independent chimney. Connection of multiple boilers to the same chimney is not recommended. Fig 3. Chimney distances Fig 4. Chimney connection...
INSTALLATION 4. INSTALLATION 4.1. Hydraulic connections The boiler is intended for connection with an open expansion vessel network. The boiler can be connected also with closed expansion vessel, if it is equipped with an overheating serpentine (optional). The boiler is intended for maximum working temperature 90 C and maximum pressure 2 bars.
INSTALLATION The hardness of the mains water supply affects the boiler’s life span. It is recommended to use a water softener if water hardness exceeds 15 Do not fill the system at the working pressure! When the boiler will be heated, the water pressure will raise.
16A. The boiler room lighting must be on a separate circuit. The user is obliged to connect the boiler to an efficient grounding system. THERMOSTAHL ROMANIA SRL declines any liability for damage caused to people, animals and goods, due to defects caused by faulty electrical connections or lack of connecting the boiler to an efficient grounding system.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS 5.5. Connecting exhaust temperature sensor The emission sensor should be fitted in the boiler flue (3). The gap between the sensor and the flue should be sealed. The sensor should be installed by a qualified fitter, while observing regulations applicable for chimney systems.
BOILER START-UP 6. BOILER START-UP 6.1. Initial lighting checks Before you start the boiler, make the following checks: Check all the hydraulic connections and make sure they are tight. Make sure there is no leakage or moisture on the pipes or other equipment. Make sure that the connection with the chimney is air-tight and the chimney installation is ...
BOILER START-UP 6.4. Fuel loading In order to correct add fuel to the boiler follow the next steps: Stop the fan function by pressing the STOP button. Wait 30 seconds for the fume to exit the boiler. Open the upper door slowly to avoid leakage of smoke. Load a sufficient amount of fuel. ...

BOILER START-UP Use the „+” and „-” buttons to respectively increase or decrease the preset emission temperature; please note that the value in the upper part of the thermometer symbol is x10, e.g.: 20°C, means 200°C. The preset emission temperature should generally be between 160 and 250°C.
BOILER START-UP 6.6. Combustion regulation After completing the fuel loading procedure and closing the door, set the required temperature. After the fan is activated, you can adjust the air volume from the control panel. The flame will have to occupy about two thirds of the fire chamber and quietly lick the cylindrical heat exchanger.
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE 7. SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE 7.1. Cleaning the boiler Solid fuel boiler require regular cleaning in order to function properly and efficient. Cleaning must be effected at least once a week. The boiler is equipped with three cleaning tools appropriate for the cleaning procedure of the boiler, as shown in Fig 7.
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE 7.2. Cleaning the chimney box To ensure efficient and safe function of the boiler, you must clean the chimney box from ash residues at least every 3 months. The ash box is equipped with a cleaning door for this purpose, as shown in Fig 10.
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE 7.4. Basic service procedures 7.4.1. Service after overheating If overheating occurs, the safety valves of the boiler must open. Make sure the boiler pump is working. In case of blackout open all the valves of the system to let hot water out of the boiler.
