6.1 - INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
The safety high limit thermostat [2] will shut off the boiler
and will require the limit button to be pushed to restart
the boiler. If the problem re-occurs, you should call your
service engineer.
In cases where the flow from the boiler is down to the
heating system,fitting a PUMP OVER R
UN THERMOSTAT [3]
(A Pipe Stat) is recommended. This is to prevent the
residual heat build up in the boiler from unnecessarily
activating the high limit thermostat and thus causing
nuisance.See Heat Pac Wiring Diagram on page 38.
We have factory fitted pump overrun thermostats on
Kitchen,System,Combi and Heatpac range of boilers.
TIME AND TEMPERATURE CONTROLS
The Building Regulations state that central heating
systems must have time and temperature control on the
pipe circuits (eg thermostatic radiator valves / TRVs,room
thermostats,cylinder thermostats etc.).
BURNER
The burner is factory set for use with kerosene
28 second class C fuel.
ROOM SEALED BALANCED FLUES.
(a) BS5410 – 1997 Code of practice for oil firing.
Installations up to 45 kW output capacity for space
heating and hot water supply purposes
Paragraph 11.2 Mounting
“The flue terminal should be mounted so that it is
separated from any combustible material forming a part of
the building.
Such combustible material may take the form of cladding
on the surface of a non-combustible wall through which
the flue outlet passes. In such a case, the cladding
adjacent to the flue outlet should be replaced by
non-combustible material extending not less than 50mm
beyond the outside dimensions of the flue outlet.
The wall through which the flue outlet passes may itself be
of combustible material,and if so the flue outlet, where it
passes through the wall, should be surrounded by
non-combustible insulating material not less than 50mm
thick (see Fig. 1, Page 44). The insulating material itself
should be contained in a steel liner to provide the
necessary structural rigidity and to prevent moisture
reaching the insulating material.”
Please not following important points before
commencing installation. Failure to do so will
invalidate warranty
INST
ALLATION & COMMISSIONING:
Boilers must be installed, commissioned and serviced by
qualified and experienced persons and as set out in the
installation manual,using correct test equipment.
EXPANSION VESSEL:
Total water content of system and boiler must be
calculated to determine if an additional pressure vessel is
required.
HARD WATER - LIMESCALE:
Failure to check water hardness and fit appropriate water
softening equipment will result in scale build up and
consequent reduction in water heating performance.
Check with local Water Authority if in doubt.
PLASTIC PIPING - WARNING
The boiler thermostat control and safety system is not
designed, and must not be relied on, to protect plastic
pipe from overheating. Plastic pipe must never be
connected directly to the boiler. If you choose to use
plastic pipe anywhere on your heating circuits, then
please consult the plastic pipe manufacturer for their
instructions on how to ensure their product never
overheats. Our boiler control and safety high limit
thermostats are not designed to fulfil this function. (They
may suggest the fitting of independent pipe thermostats,
or thermostatic mixing valves linking flow and return).
• Firebird accepts no responsibility for failure of plastic
piping and fittings for what ever reason.
W
ARNING:
The manufacturer cannot accept responsibility for any
damage to persons, animals or property due to error in
installation or in the burner adjustment or due to
improper or unreasonable use or non observance of the
technical instruction enclosed with the burner, or due to
the intervention of unqualified personnel.
BOILER THERMOSTAT / THERMISTOR FUNCTION
The CONTROL THERMOSTAT [1] on the boiler allows the
householder to vary the water flow temperature from a
low of 60˚C to a high of 80˚C to 82˚C,depending on the
model.
In accordance with EU boiler standards,your boiler is also
fitted with a SAFET
Y HIGH LIMIT THERMOSTAT [2],fixed at
114˚C.This system protects the boiler in the event of the
control thermostat failing and keeps the boiler safe.
