6.1 Location
6.1.1 Instructions
Before choosing a site for the appliance, carefully read the safety
warnings and installation manual.
•
Ensure that wall to which the appliance will be mounted on is
structurally safe in order to support the weight of the appliance.
•
Ensure that the space that the appliance is to be installed
within allows the appliance to be installed and the clearances
maintained. This will ensure that the connections to the water,
gas and fl ue can be accessed and inspected (see chapter
Clearances).
•
Explain these requirements to the appliance user.
•
Do not install the appliance above another appliance that
could damage it (for example, above a cooker that might emit
steam or grease) or in a room, which has a lot of dust in the
atmosphere which is corrosive.
•
The boiler must be fi tted inside the property and exposed pipe
work may need to be protected from frost by fi tting a frost
thermostat.
6.1.2 Regulations
Location
This boiler is not suitable for outdoor installation.
This boiler is suitable for installation in bathroom zones 2 and 3.
Timber Frame Buildings
If the boiler is to be installed in a timber frame building it should
be fi tted in accordance with the Institute of Gas Engineers
document IGE/UP/7/1998. If in doubt seek advice from local gas
undertaking or Glow-worm.
6.2 Clearances
•
To allow periodic maintenance, ensure the distances indicated
on the diagram.
Additional clearances may be benefi cial around the boiler for
installation and servicing.
For fl ue installations where external access is not practicable,
consideration should be given for the space required to insert the
fl ue from inside the property, which may necessitate clearance
larger than those specifi ed in diagram.

* A removable compartment door can be placed a minimum 5 mm in
front of appliance. A clearance of 600 mm is required from a fi xed
surface.
The boiler and fl ue are suitable for installation onto and through
combustible materials provided that:
- Minimum 5mm clearance is maintained around the
circumference of the fl ue (air intake).
- The combustible surface and fi xings are suitable for
supporting the load.
- The minimum clearances from the boiler case are maintained.
6.3 Ventilation
6.3.1 Room Ventilation
The boiler is room sealed so a permanent air vent is not required.
6.3.2 Cupboard or Compartment Ventilation
Due to the high effi ciency and low casing temperature of this
boiler, cupboard or compartment ventilation is not necessary.
•
Existing ventilation should be investigated for its purpose
before removing.
