CONDENSATE DISPOSAL
SYSTEM NO. 2 - CONDENSATE PUMP
IMPORTANT
Firebird condensing boilers when in condensing mode extract more heat from the flue products and the resulting
condensate which is mildly acidic needs to be drained from the boiler via a condensate pipe to the drainage system.
Provision must be made for the removal of condensate from the boiler to a internal soil stack, waste pipe,
external soil stack, gully or soak-away as per BS6798.
The 75mm trap is provided with the boiler and situated on the front of the boiler (under the cleaning door) as per
figure 1, page 45. This should be checked at regular intervals and cleaned at annual service.
The condensate line should be plastic and minimum diameter of 22mm.
Copper or steel cannot be used.
A fall from the boiler of 1:40 minimum.
As few bends as possible to reduce the risk of trapping condensate.
CONDENSATE PIPEWORK THAT IS EXTERNAL OR IN AN UNHEATED GARAGE SHOULD NOT
EXCEED 3 METERS AND LAGGED WITH WATER PROOF INSULATION TO PREVENT FREEZING.
CONDENSE PUMP (KIT IS AVAILABLE AS AN OPTIONAL EXTRA)
