5 - CONDENSATE DISPOSAL
To re-locate the factory-fitted trap outside the boiler
casing, use the following procedure:
Note: This procedure must be carried out before the
boiler is installed.
1 Remove the top casing panel(s) from the boiler.
2 Unscrew and remove the screws fastening the left
side panel to the rear casing panel of the boiler.
3 Carefully separate the left side and rear panels just
enough to gain access to the condensate outlet on
the left rear of the condensing heat exchanger (see
Fig.16).
4 Push out pre-cut 'knock-out' from the condensate
outlet hole in the rear of left side casing panel.
5 Remove the right angle end of the flexible
condensate discharge hose from the outlet
connection on the condensing heat exchanger.
6 From the front of boiler, remove the straight
connector end of the flexible hose from the top of
the condensate trap.
7 Reverse the flexible hose and pass the straight
connector end through the new hole in the left hand
casing panel. Push the straight connector firmly onto
the condensate outlet connection of the condensing
heat exchanger - push on at least 20 mm.

8 Refit the left hand casing panel to the rear panel
using the reverse procedure, ensuring all fixing
screws are used.
9 Remove the trap from the mounting bracket.
10 Unscrew and remove the trap mounting bracket
from the left side panel.
11 Fix the trap mounting bracket to the wall adjacent
to the boiler in the required position.
Note: The top of the trap must be below the
condensate connection on the boiler.
12 Re-fit the trap to the mounting bracket.
The mounting bracket supplied with the trap
MUST be used - the trap should NOT be
supported by the condensate pipework only.
13 Connect the flexible condensate hose to the trap,
pushing the right angle hose connector onto the
trap inlet connection.
IMPORTANT: The flexible hose must fall
continuously from the outlet to the top of the trap.
