7isar - Installation and ServicingGENERALThe following notes are intended for general guidance:1. The boiler MUST be installed so that the terminal is exposedto external air.2. It is important that the position of the terminal allows the freepassage of air across it at all times.3. Minimum acceptable spacing from the terminal to obstructionsand ventilation openings are specified inTable 4.4. Where the lowest part of the terminal is fitted less than 2m(6'6") above a balcony, above ground or above a flat roof towhich people have access then the terminal MUST beprotected by a purpose designed guard.Terminal guards are available from boiler suppliers. (Ask forTFC flue guard model no. K6 - round, plastic coated). In caseof difficulty contact:Grasslin (UK) Ltd., Tower House, Vale Rise, Tonbridge,Kent TN9 1TB.Tel: +44 (0) 1732 359 888. Fax: +44 (0) 1732 354 445www.tfc-group.co.ukEnsure that the guard is fitted centrally.5. The flue assembly shall be so placed or shielded as toprevent ignition or damage to any part of any building.6. The air inlet/products outlet duct and the terminal of the boilerMUST NOT be closer than 25mm (1") to combustible material.Detailed recommendations on the protection of combustiblematerial are given in BS. 5440-1:2000. In IE refer toI.S.813:2002.IMPORTANT. It is absolutely essential to ensure, in practice,that products of combustion discharging from the terminalcannot re-enter the building or any other adjacent buildingthrough ventilators, windows, doors, other sources of natural airinfiltration, or forced ventilation / air conditioning.If this should occur the appliance MUST be turned OFF, labelledas 'unsafe' until corrective action can be taken.TERMINALThe terminal assembly can be adapted to accommodate variouswall thicknesses. Refer to Frame 12 .AIR SUPPLYIt is NOT necessary to have a purpose-provided air vent in theroom or internal space in which the boiler is installed. Neither isit necessary to ventilate a cupboard or compartment in which theboiler is installed, due to the low surface temperatures of theboiler casing during operation; therefore the requirements of BS6798, Clause 12, and BS 5440:2 may be disregarded. In IE therequirements of I.S.813:2002 may be disregarded.WATER CIRCULATION SYSTEMIMPORTANT.A minimum length of 1 metre of copper pipe MUST be fitted toboth flow and return connections from the boiler beforeconnection to any plastic piping.The central heating system should be in accordance withBS.6798 and, in addition, for smallbore and microboresystems, BS.5449.WATER TREATMENT - see Frame 6GAS SUPPLYThe local gas supplier should be consulted, at the installationplanning stage, in order to establish the availability of anadequate supply of gas. An existing service pipe must NOT beused without prior consultation with the local gas supplier.The boiler MUST be installed on a gas supply with a governedmeter only.A gas meter can only be connected by the local gas supplier ora CORGI registered engineer. In IE by a Competent Person.An existing meter should be checked, preferably by the gassupplier, to ensure that the meter is adequate to deal with therate of gas supply required.N.B. The principle of the 1:1 gas valve ensures that the isarm30100 is able to deliver its full output at inlet pressureswell below those required by BS. 6891.IMPORTANT.Installation pipes MUST be fitted in accordance with BS. 6891.In IE refer to I.S.813:2002. Pipework from the meter to theboiler MUST be of an adequate size, i.e. no longer than 20mand not less than 15mm O.D.The complete installation MUST be tested for gas soundnessand purged as described in the above code.FLUE INSTALLATIONPluming will occur at the terminal so terminal positions wherethis could cause a nuisance should be avoided.The flue must be installed in accordance with therecommendations of BS. 5440-1: 2000. In IE refer toI.S.813:2002.Table 4 - Balanced flue terminal positionTerminal Position Minimum Spacing1.
