1 INTRODUCTION
This supplement is for the LPG model of the boiler; it must be read in conjunction with the 'Installation and Servicing
Instructions' supplied with the boiler and provides the extra information which is particular to LPG.
The Alpha CD25C, CD28C and CD35C are combination boilers providing both central heating and domestic hot water at
mains pressure.
The boilers are designed for use with a fully pumped, sealed and pressurised heating system using only PROPANE gas.

3 BOILER LOCATION
Installation pipes, cylinders and pressure regulators should be fitted in accordance with BS 5482:1. Bulk tank installation must
comply with the requirements of the Home Office code of practice for the storage of liquefied petroleum gas at fixed installations.
The boiler must not be installed in a room or internal space below ground level, e.g. in a basement or cellar, except where at
least one side is open to ground level.
4 INSTALLATION
In addition to the regulations and requirements stated in the Installation and Servicing instructions, the boiler must be installed
in accordance with BS 5482:1 - The Installation of Propane Burning Appliances in Permanent Dwellings.
2.3 GAS SUPPLY
The Alpha CD25C boiler requires a gas rate of 1.87 kg/h (4.0 lb/h) or 3.6 litres/h of liquid gas.
The Alpha CD28C boiler requires a gas rate of 2.22 kg/h (4.8 lb/h) or 4.2 litres/h of liquid gas.
The Alpha CD35C boiler requires a gas rate of 2.67 kg/h (5.7 lb/h) or 5.0 litres/h of liquid gas.
The supply pipes must be capable of delivering this quantity of gas in addition to the demand from any other appliances in the
house. The boilers require at least a 22 mm gas supply pipe.
The complete installation must be tested for gas soundness against leakage.
The local Propane gas supplier should be consulted, at the installation planning stage, in order to establish the availability of an
adequate supply of gas.
