FITTING INSTRUCTIONS The Aztec Gold is a wall-mounted electric central heating boiler designed with smaller locations in mind. The boiler can be fitted in the smallest of places and requires minimal attention to ensure efficient and reliable operation. The boiler produces hot water for a fully-sealed system by passing water over electric heating elements which are housed in an insulated stainless steel heat exchanger.

See Fig. 4 for a typical system layout. IMPORTANT While the Aztec Gold is entirely suitable for use on heating systems which utilise plastic pipework, the FIG. 3 - STRAIN RELIEF FIXING first 100mm from the boiler manifold must always be 15mm copper.
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS (cont.) WATER SYSTEM Connect the flow and return pipework from the radiator(s) into the corresponding fittings on the boiler manifold. Ensure all fittings are made water-tight. Notes: The pressure relief valve must be piped to a permanent drain-off on the outside of the building.
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS (cont.) FILLING THE SYSTEM A filling point connection is provided on the front face of the boiler manifold to facilitate the initial filling and pressurising of the system via a hose connection (supplied). Alternatively, a permanent filling-loop may be employed.
