Start-Up And Maintenance; Functional Test; Combination With Automatic Boiler (E.g. Pellet Or Oil-Fired Boiler) - Windhager LogWIN Operating Manual

1. Important information for system operators

1.5 Start-up and maintenance

Please permit Windhager Customer Service or have one of our customer service Partners put your new boiler
into service. In this way, all functions of the new unit will be thoroughly checked; you will also benefit from the
detailed information provided by the system installer. Installation by a qualified technician as well as the main-
tenance required by the guarantee limitations and undertaken by Windhager Customer Service or a customer
service partner will guarantee the optimal use and service life of your boiler system. This is the only way to
assure the benefits of this technologically advanced boiler and guarantee safe, environmentally friendly and
energy-saving system operation.
The following preconditions must be met before you order the initial start-up:
1.) Boiler installed correctly.
2.) System fully wired up electrically.
3.) System rinsed, filled and vented – heat consumption must be possible.
4.) Boiler connected to domestic water and filled.
5.) Sufficient quantity of fuel available (pellets, split logs, oil or gas).
6.) The customer must be present during start-up.
The initial start-up cannot be carried out if any of these points are neglected. The customer will be charged
for any unnecessary costs arising as a result.
Start-up and maintenance by Windhager Customer Service or a customer service partner are part of the
guarantee requirements of the enclosed "guarantee limitations".
Note!
When the boiler is heated up for the first time, bad smells may result from gas emissions from in-
sulation or paint residue being burnt off. Ensure that the boiler room/installation room is therefore
well vented. Condensation may also form near the coasting surfaces and the combustion chamber
temperature may only increase after a delay.

1.6 Functional test

EN 12828 and ÖNORM B8131 require that the function of the system and related safety equipment be checked
and certified yearly by a qualified technician (installer, heating system contractor).
At two-year intervals, the heating water condition must be checked (ÖNORM H 5195-1) by a heating expert (instal-
ler) (see BioWIN assembly instructions – Heating water); this is to prevent corrosion and sediment accumulation in
the heating system and boiler. For systems using more than 1,500 litres of water (e.g., systems with accumulator
tanks), this inspection is required on an annual basis.
In the event of repair work requiring a change of water in the heating system, the heating water is to be checked
within 4 to 6 weeks after such work.
Corrosion and sediment resulting from improper heating water are not covered by the guarantee and warranty.
1.7 Combination with automatic boiler
If the LogWIN and an automatic boiler (e.g. pellet or oil-fired boiler) are connected to one flue, the cladding,
filling, lighting and ash doors and all cleaning openings of the LogWIN must be closed when the automatic boiler
is operating in order for the cladding door switch to be released and the automatic boiler to operate correctly
(inleaked air).
(e.g. pellet or oil-fired boiler)
