5.1 Water System General 1. The ROMA 55 FF will supply central heating and, via an indirect cylinder, stored hot water. 2. All water systems must be in accordance with the Bye-Laws of the Local Water Undertaking. 3. Only fully pumped systems can be used.
ROMA 55 FF ROMA ROMA SEALED SYSTEM SEALED SYSTEM PUMP ON THE FLOW PUMP ON THE FLOW 5.3 Sealed System 1. Further guidance: BS 5449, BS 6798, BS 7074 Part 1, British Gas Publications. 2. Two typical sealed systems are shown, above.
ROMA 55 FF Boiler pressure loss mbar litres/sec gal/min 5.4 Pump selection Suitable pump should be fitted taking due account of the pressure loss across the boiler. Pump to comply with BS 1394. A minimum flow rate of 6 litres/min (1.3 gal/min) is required.
ROMA 55 FF 5.9 Flue system 1. Further guidance: BS 5440 Part 1. 2. Flue types: Fanned. Balanced, and hence appliance is room sealed. 3. Termination: Outside. Horizontal. Vertical. 4. Direction: From boiler, to rear, either side and vertical (side & vertical required optional flue turret).
ROMA 55 FF 6. Terminal position (outside) A Quinnell Barratt and Quinnell guard (part. no. C2) should be screwed to the wall centrally over the terminal, when the distance is less than 2 m above a balcony, above ground or above a flat roof to which people have access.

ROMA 55 FF 10. Electricity supply and connections All electrical installation work must be carried out by a qualified electrician, and all work shall be in accordance with the current issue of the IEE wiring regulations. Supplied for use on 230 V ~ 50 Hz supply, protected by a 3 Amp fuse.
ROMA 55 FF 14. Installation procedure In most cases it will be easy and desireable to install the boiler with only the front section of the outer case and the lower cover removed. However, if it is wished to install the flue system without the boiler on the wall, the upper rear frame is easily detached from the boiler, the framed fixed to the wall, and the flue system fully assembled to the frame.
ROMA 55 FF 14.3 Prepare the wall 1. Using the template provided decide upon the position of the boiler. 2. Mark and drill four holes 10 mm diameter 60 mm deep. 3. Insert wall plugs provided and screw in the hexagon headed screws provided into the upper holes to within about 5 mm of the wall face.
ROMA 55 FF 14.4 Prepare the flue and air pipes rear and side flue outlet 1. Measure the wall thickness, W. 2. For rear flues; cut the plastic air pipes to length: W + 125 + 100 mm including terminal;...

ROMA 55 FF 14.5 Vertical flue 1. Fit the side vertical flue turret bend (facing upwards) to the upper frame, using the fibre gasket and four self tapping screws provided. Discard the rear flue socket. 2. Measure the length for the plastic air pipe vertically from the appliance turret inner stop to the base of proposed terminal position (See drawing for minimum height).
ROMA 55 FF 14.6 Mounting the boiler / completing the flue system Note - If access is restricted, then pre-plumb the boiler flow and return connections at this stage. 1. Lift the boiler or upper frame only if removed, and locate the upper key hole slots in the back panel over the upper mounting screws, and gently lower onto the screws.

ROMA 55 FF The pump is connected as follows (3 wire electrical lead). Brown - Live Blue - Neutral Green/yellow - Earth If external controls are not required remove tha supplied 5 core electrical lead and replace with a 3 core lead to supply the permanent 230 V live supply to the appliance.
ROMA 55 FF 15. Commissioning Carry out preliminary electrical system checks i.e. EARTH CONTINUITY, RESISTANCE TO EARTH, SHORT CIRCUIT AND POLARITY using a suitable test meter. 1. Remove the outer case and lower cover (17.2.1 & 3). 2. Test for gas soundness up to the boiler service cock - BS 6891.

ROMA 55 FF 16. Fault finding Carry out initial fault finding checks i.e. check that gas, water and electrical supplies are available at the boiler. Before starting, carry out preliminary electrical system checks i.e. earth continuity, resistance to earth, short circuit and polarity with a suitable test meter.
