2.2 Boiler location

The unit's combustion chamber is sealed off
from the installation room and therefore requi-
res no compartment ventilation.
The installation room must be sufficiently well
ventilated to prevent any dangerous condi-
tions from forming in the event of even slight
gas leakage. This safety standard is required
by the EEC Directive no. 90/396 for all gas
units, including those with a so-called sealed
chamber.
Therefore the place of installation must be
free of dust, flammable materials or objects
or corrosive gases. The room must be dry and
not subject to freezing.
The boiler is designed to be installed on a solid
wall. The wall fixing must ensure a stable and
effective support for the appliance, using the
bracket and fixings supplied.
If the unit is enclosed in a cupboard or moun-
ted alongside, there must be space for normal
maintenance work. Fig. 9 and tab. 1 give the
minimum clearances to leave around the unit.

Safe Handling of Substances
Care should be taken when handling the boiler
insulation panels, which can cause irritation to the skin. No asbestos, mercury or CFCs are included in
any part of the boiler.
Product Handling Advice
When handling or lifting always use safe techniques - keep your back straight, bend your knees, don't
twist - move your feet, avoid bending forwards and sideways and keep the load as close to your body
as possible.
Where possible transport the boiler using a sack truck or other suitable trolley.
Always grip the boiler firmly, and before lifting feel where the weight is concentrated to establish the
centre of gravity, repositioning yourself as necessary.
