DOMEsTIC hOT WATER

1. The domestic hot water service must be in accordance with BS 5546
and BS 6700.
2. Refer to Table 1 for minimum and maximum working pressures. In
areas of low mains water pressures the domestic hot water regulator
may be removed from the DHW flow turbine cartridge. Refer to
Frame 67. The boiler will require the flow rate to be set to obtain a
temperature rise of 35
3. The boilers are suitable for connection to most types of washing
machine and dishwasher appliances.
4. When connecting to suitable showers, ensure that:
a. The cold inlet to the boiler is fitted with an approved anti-vacuum
or syphon non-return valve.
b. Hot and cold water supplies to the shower are of equal pressure.
5. hard Water Areas
Where the water hardness exceeds 200mg/litre (200 ppm), it is
recommended that a proprietary scale reducing device is fitted into
the boiler cold supply within the requirements of the local water
company.
IMpORTANT. Provision must be made to accomodate the expansion of
DHW contained within the appliance. If the DHW inlet contains a back
flow prevention device or non-return valve, e.g. a water meter, then a
mini expansion vessel should be fitted between the device and the boiler
in the cold inlet pipe.
Cold water, rising main & pipework in exposed areas need to be suitably
lagged to prevent freezing.
Note. DHW Expansion Vessel kit available from Ideal.

Treatment in Central Heating Systems.
If water treatment is used Ideal stelrad group
recommend only the use of
FERNOx, MBI, ADEY MC1 or SENTINEL x100
associated water treatment products, which must be used
in accordance with the manufacturers' instructions.
Notes.
1. It is most important that the correct concentration
of the water treatment products is maintained in
accordance with the manufacturers' instructions.
2. If the boiler is installed in an existing system any
unsuitable additives MUST be removed by thorough
cleansing. BS 7593:2006 details the steps necessary
to clean a domestic heating system.
3. In hard water areas, treatment to prevent lime scale
may be necessary - however the use of artificially
softened water is NOT permitted.
4. Under no circumstances should the boiler be fired
before the system has been thoroughly flushed.

The boiler does not normally need a bypass but
at least some radiators on the heating circuit, of
load of at least 10% of the minimum boiler output,
must be provided with twin lockshield valves so
that this minimum heating load is always available.
See note regarding thermostatic radiator valves on
page 9.
Note. Systems incorporating zone valves which
could completely cut off the flow through the
system must also include a bypass.

DOMEsTIC hOT WATER
In hard water areas where mains water can exceed 200ppm Total
Hardness (as defined by BS 7593:2006 Table 2) a scale reducing
device should be fitted into the boiler cold supply within the
requirements of the local water company. The use of artificially
softened water, however, is not permitted.
Ideal stelrad group recommend the use of Fernox Quantomat,
Sentinel Combiguard,Calmag CalPhos I scale reducing devices
or Scalemaster In-line Scale Inhibitor branded Ideal, which must
be used in accordance with the manufacturers' instructions.
