Boiler Safety Devices

Boiler Shutdown

The boiler software is designed to recognise the potential for

an overheat lockout and will shutdown before this happens.

To restart the boiler, press the reset button, see diagram 2.

If the boiler fails to resume normal operation and all external

controls are calling for heat, then call your Installation/Servicing

company or Glow-worm service.

Frost Protection

With the gas and electric supplies ON and irrespective of any

room thermostat setting, the integral frost protection device

will operate the pump

when the temperature of the boiler

water falls below 8

O

C.

The pump will stop after 10 minutes if the temperature is

higher than 10

O

C or has already reached 35

O

C.

The burner will only activate if the boiler temperature does not

reach 10

O

C after 30 minutes or at any time if the temperature

drops to 5

O

C.

The burner will switch off when the temperature reaches

35

O

C.

NOTE:

Any other exposed areas of the system should be

protected by a separate frost thermostat.

Condensate Drain Blockage

As a safety feature the boiler will stop working if the condensate

drain becomes blocked. During freezing conditions this may

be due to the forming of ice in the condense drain external to

the house. Release an ice blockage by the use of warm cloths

on the pipe. The boiler should then restart. Contact your

Installation/Servicing company or Glow-worm service if the

fault persists.

Safety Discharge Valve

The safety discharge valve and discharge pipe is fitted to the

boiler. If there is any discharge from the pipe, switch off the

boiler electrical supply, then call your Installation/Servicing

company or Glow-worm service.
