7.0 Burco boiler Installation
7.1 Before connecting to the power supply
• Remove all packaging and plastic coating from the appliance.
• Check the unit has not been damaged in any way during transportation. Report any damage to the
company who sold you the boiler right away.
• Check the available power supply corresponds to that shown on the rating label of the appliance,
which must be A.C. (Alternating Current).
• Ensure the yellow steam cap is removed from the steam vent prior to powering appliance.
• The location must be frost free.
7.2 Connecting to the water supply
• Connection from the cold-water supply to the appliance should only be made by the hose supplied.
• In hard water areas, it is always advisable to fit an inline filtration unit to limit scale build-up. If you
have purchased a Burco boiler that does not have a water filter system included, we recommend
you fit a separate water filter between the boiler and the mains
supply.
• Always ensure mains water supply is turned off, or localised
isolation valves are closed before attempting to connect boiler
to the mains water supply.
• The inlet water connection to the inlet solenoid valve is ¾” BSP,
this should be connected to the mains water supply via an
accessible isolating tap.
• The blue pipe connects to the grey fitting which can be found underneath the appliance.
• Firmly push the blue pipe into the small outlet hole on the grey fitting.
• Ensure grey connection is screwed tight on the appliance and not leaking.
• Locate the second grey connection fitting. Connect the other end of the blue pipe to this. This
second grey connection fitting is connected to the mains water supply forming a cold-water feed
from the mains water supply to the Burco boiler.
• Do not use old water hose.
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE INSTALLED IN LOCATIONS OVERSEEN BY TRAINED PERSONNEL & ON A
FLAT, HORIZONTAL SURFACE.
