4 Boiler installation sequence
Positioning of Appliance for Final Installation – above
worktop, foreseeable obstructions etc.
This appliance is deemed to be a one person lift when
removed from the carton. Fit bracket securely onto wall
before lifting appliance into position. Obtain firm grip on
front and sides of appliance, lift upwards, onto worktop
if practicable. Ensure stable balance achieved and lift
upwards to position in place on bracket. If 2 persons
positioning onto bracket obtain firm grip at front and
sides/base of boiler. Ensure coordinated movements
during 2 person lifts to ensure equal spread of weight of
load. Ensure safe lifting techniques are used – keep back
straight – bend using legs - when lifting load from floor
level. Do not twist – reposition feet instead. Keep boiler
as close as possible to body throughout lift to minimise
strain on back. Avoid upper body/top heavy bending -
do not lean forward/sideways. Always use assistance if
required. Recommend wear suitable cut resistant gloves
with good grip to protect against sharp edges and
ensure good grip when handling appliance.
Positioning of Appliance for Final Installation – within
compartment etc. restricting installation.
This appliance is deemed to be a one person lift when
removed from the carton. Fit bracket securely onto wall
before lifting appliance into position. Obtain firm grip on
front and sides of appliance, lift upwards, onto worktop if
practicable. Ensure stable balance achieved and lift
upwards to drop into place onto bracket. If 2 persons posi-
tioning onto bracket obtain firm grip at front and sides/
base of boiler. Ensure coordinated movements during 2
person lifts to ensure equal spread of weight of load. If 1
person positioning onto bracket recommend obtain firm
grip supporting base of boiler. Ensure safe lifting tech-
niques are used – keep back straight – bend using legs -
when lifting load from floor level. Do not twist – reposition
feet instead. Keep boiler as close as possible to body
throughout lift to minimise strain on back. Always use
assistance if required. Recommend wear suitable cut
resistant gloves with good grip to protect against sharp
edges and ensure good grip when handling appliance.
Positioning of Appliance for Final Installation – in
roof space restricting installation.
This appliance is deemed to be a one person lift when
removed from the carton. Obtain firm grip on front and
sides of appliance, lift upwards, ensure stable balance
achieved and lift upwards to drop into place onto brack-
et. If 2 persons positioning onto bracket obtain firm grip
at front and sides/base of boiler. Ensure co-ordinated
movements during 2 person lifts to ensure equal spread
of weight of load. If 1 person positioning onto bracket
recommend obtain firm grip supporting base of boiler.
Ensure safe lifting techniques are used - keep back
straight – bend using legs - when lifting load from floor
level. Do not twist – reposition feet instead. Keep boiler
as close as possible to body throughout lift to minimise
strain on back. Always use assistance if required.
Recommend wear suitable cut resistant gloves with good
grip to protect against sharp edges and ensure good
grip when handling appliance. It is recommended a risk
assessment of the roof space area be carried out before
moving the appliance into the area to take into account
access, stability of flooring, lighting and other factors,
and appropriate measures taken.

Fig. 4.1 Distances during installation (dimensions in mm)
The boiler should be mounted on a flat and vertical area
of wall of sufficient area for the boiler plus the required
clearances for installation and servicing (fig. 4.1). These
are shown on the installation template supplied with the
boiler and are:
– 5 mm either side of the boiler
– 180 mm below the boiler
– 165 mm* above the boiler when utilising the 100 mm
outside diameter flue
– 246 mm* above the boiler when utilising the 125 mm
outside diameter flue
– 500 mm in front of the boiler to enable easy access
for servicing (may be provided by an opening door)
Note
If the boiler is to be installed in a timber framed
building, it should be fitted in accordance with
„IGE/UP/7 Edition 2 Gas installations in timber
framed and ligh steel framed buildings“.
4.2.1 Select position for boiler
Refer to section 3.4 ‘Installation site’ for information
regarding the appliance location. In general the boiler
must be positioned such that:
• There is adequate space around the boiler for service
and maintenance
• The boiler can be correctly flued, i.e. the flue terminal
position is located in accordance with these instruc-
tions and the air/flue duct can be installed in accord-
ance with the flue installation instructions supplied.
• All necessary pipework can be connected, including
the pressure relief valve and condensate drain.
