Sound levels must also be a consideration. Whilst the Firebird Combi Range are one of the quietest boilers on the market, some householders are particularly sensitive and the following points should be considered: 1. - Page 19 INSTALLATION 4-C Flue Systems IMPORTANT Because of the improved efficiencies of boilers under E.U. Efficiency requirements and OFS A100 Standard, it is necessary to pay extra special attention to flues and chimneys. The improved efficiency figures achieved by modern oil boilers are attained by using more of the heat (higher temperatures) heretofore allowed into flues and chimneys.

Page 24: Oil Supply
OIL SUPPLY The boiler burner is factory set to use 28-second kerosene. However, Gas oil 35-second can be used with a conventional flue installation if a PRE-HEATER is also fitted. Note: Gas Oil 35sec may not be used with a balanced flue installation. If boiler location allows use of 35 sec.Gas Oil, pump pressure should be increased and air settings readjusted as necessary. - Page 25 OIL SUPPLY 5-D Two Pipe Systems Where installations have the bottom of the tank below the oil burner pump a two pipe system is required. Ensure that valves and filters are not fitted in the return line as this must be unobstructed at all times. The oil burner pump should be set for two pipe operation as detailed in accompanying oil burner manufacturers manual, refer also to page seven of this manual - section 2E+F...

- Page 37 Manual Filling The Firebird Combi 90 comes with this system built into the appliance. It consists of a flexible hose connection with a butterfly shut off valve at each end and a double check valve assembly at boiler end. To conform to requirements of BS 7074 Part I and local water Authority Bye Laws, the flexible hose should be disconnected at one end when filling has been completed and checked.
- Page 38 That expansion vessels are sized correctly. Special attention should be given to existing heating systems where Firebird Combi boiler has replaced an existing unit. Extra effort should be made to ensure that all original pipe work and radiators are repeatedly flushed.
