Installation and Servicing ecoTEC plus61.4.13 Protection against freezingThe boiler has a built in frost protection programme aslong as the electricity and gas are left switched on.This device operates the burner and system pumpwhen the temperature inside the boiler falls to 3°C.Any other exposed areas of the system should beprotected by a separate frost thermostat.If the mains electricity and gas are to be turned off forany long periods during severe weather, it isrecommended that the whole system, including theboiler, should be drained to avoid the risk of freezing.Make sure that, if fitted, the immersion heater in thecylinder is switched off.If you have a sealed water system contact yourinstallation/ servicing company as draining, refillingand pressurising MUST be carried out by a competentperson.As a safety feature the boiler will stop working if thecondensate drain becomes blocked.
