10.4 Fitting The Boiler
1. Remove the sealing caps from the boiler connections.
NOTE: A small amount of water may drain from the
boiler once the caps are removed.
2. Lift the boiler as indicated by the shaded areas. The
boiler should be lifted by TWO PEOPLE. Engage the slots
at the top rear of the boiler on the wall plate (Fig. 35)
(see Safe Manual Handling page 5).
3. Insert the sealing washers between the valves and
pipes on the wall plate and the boiler connections. The
rubber washers must be used on the gas connection.
4. Tighten all the connections.
10.5 Fitting the Safety Pressure Relief
Discharge Pipe (Fig. 33)
1. Remove the discharge pipe from the kit.
2. Determine the routing of the discharge pipe in the
vicinity of the boiler. Make up as much of the pipework as
is practical, including the discharge pipe supplied.
3. The pipework must be at least 15mm diameter and
run continuously downwards to a discharge point outside
the building. See section 6.7 for further details.
4. Utilising one of the sealing washers, connect the
discharge pipe to the adaptor and tighten the nut.
5. Complete the discharge pipework and route it to the
outside discharge point.
IMPORTANT: Make all soldered joints before
connecting to the safety pressure relief valve.
