does not, of itself, confer immunity from legal obligations.
1.4 The installation of the appliance must be in accordance with
the relevant requirements of the Gas Safety Regulations, current
IEE Regulations, Building Regulations, Building Standards
(Scotland) and local water bye-laws.
1.5 The installation should follow the recommendations of the
following British Standards unless otherwise indicated:
BS6798 - Specification for the installation of gas fired hot water
boilers of rated input not exceeding 60kW (Gross).
BS5449 - Central heating for domestic premises.
BS5546:1 - Installation of gas hot water supplies for domestic

BS7593 - Water treatment in domestic heating systems.
1.6. To ensure that the installation will perform to the highest
standards, the system and components should conform to any
other relevant standards.
1.7. The appliance and/or components conform, where
applicable, with the Essential Requirements of the Gas Appliance
Directive, the Boiler Efficiency Directive, the EMC Directive and the
Low Voltage Directive.
1.8. In accordance with the requirements of COSSH the appliance
does not contain any substances which are harmful to health.
1.9. Product Liability regulations indicate that, in certain
circumstances, the installer can be held responsible, not only for
mistakes on his part but also for damage resulting from the use of
faulty materials. We advise that, to avoid any risk, only quality
approved branded fittings are used.
1.10. LPG Installation. The appliance shall not be installed in a
room or internal space below ground level when it is intended for
use with LPG. This does not preclude the installation into rooms
which are basements with respect to one side of the building but
open to the ground on the opposite side.
1.11. The advice and instructions given in this document covers, as
far as possible, the forseeable situations which may arise. Contact
Worcester Heat Systems Technical Department, Telephone: 0990
