FITTING THE
OPTIONAL ADD-IN
BOILER
The boiler for the Country 12
replaces the rear firebrick, the boiler
for the Country 8 replaces the rear
and righthand side firebricks.
Before fitting the boiler, remove the
front firebars, the side and back fire
plates and the appropriate
firebrick(s). Knock out the
knock-outs for the boiler tappings in
the back of the firebox.
Remove the backnuts and fibre
washers from the boiler tappings and
fit the boiler into the appliance. Place
the fibre washers over the tappings
on the outside of the appliance and fit
the backnuts, ensuring that the boiler
is held tightly against the rear inside
face of the appliance and that the top
edge of the boiler is level or runs
uphill to the flow tapping. On the
Country 8 also ensure that the boiler
is fitted tight against the righthand
side of the firebox.
HOT WATER SYSTEM
The optional add-in boiler which may
be fitted in the appliance has an
output sufficient for domestic hot
water heating. If the boiler is fitted
then the room heating will be
reduced.
The hot water system should be a
gravity circuit and must be correctly
vented as shown in Fig. 6.
A double feed indirect hot water
storage cylinder to BS:1556 part 1
should be used in most situations,
unless the appliance is to be fitted in
a soft water area in which case a
direct hot water cylinder may be used
provided that the boiler is glass lined.
All pipework in the primary circuit
must be 28mm diameter and the flow
pipe must rise continuously from the
boiler to the open vent.
If an indirect cylinder is used then
the primary circuit should be filled
with a suitable inhibitor to prevent
the build up of scale and corrosion.
