FIREBIRD ‘S’ RANGE
BALANCED FLUE BOILERS
The Firebird boiler may be set for Room-sealed balanced flue operation using a Firebird condensing
balanced flue kit. This kit does not draw combustion air from inside the room. It is drawn from
outside direct to burner by airpipe supplied with boiler. Flue gases are expelled through the same
kit. However, if the boiler is installed in a compartment or small room, some ventilation air is
necessary to maintain acceptable temperature in boiler area.
Use of any equipment other then the matching Firebird low level roomsealed
concentric flue kit is not guaranteed for low level discharge and will probably
invalidate the warranty.
DOMESTIC HEATING & HOT WATER SYSTEMS
HVCA Codes of Practice and BS 5449: Part 1 “Forced Circulation Hot Water Systems” should be adhered
to when installing the boiler. Refer also to Regulations and Standards listed on PAGE 4.
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
The boiler and controls require 230V 1 phase 50Hz electric supply with a 5amp fuse.
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
A qualified electrician must carry out all electric wiring in accordance with current I.E.E Regulations and
any local regulations which may apply.
The mains electrical supply must be taken from a double pole isolating switch with a 5amp fuse,
positioned somewhere close to the boiler. Heat resisting cable must be used which can be routed into
the boiler through the access provided on either side of the base.
Ancillary controls may be provided for with terminal connections in the control panel.
Balanced flue boiler in room (eg. kitchen) does not require individual ventilation.
