Grant Euroflame Condensing External Modules
During the combustion process, hydrogen and oxygen
combine to produce heat and water vapour. The water
vapour produced is in the form of superheated steam in
the heat exchanger. This superheated steam contains
sensible heat (available heat) and latent heat (heat
locked up in the flue gas). A conventional boiler
cannot recover any of the latent heat and this energy is
lost to the atmosphere through the flue.
The Grant Euroflame condensing boiler contains an
extra heat exchanger which is designed to recover the
latent heat normally lost by a conventional boiler. It
does this by cooling the flue gases to below 90° C,
thus extracting more sensible heat and some of the
latent heat. This is achieved by cooling the flue gases
to their dew point (approximately 55° C).
To ensure maximum efficiency, the boiler return
temperature should be 55° C or less, this will enable
the latent heat to be condensed out of the flue gases.
The boiler will achieve nett thermal efficiencies of
100%.
To achieve maximum performance from the Grant
Euroflame condensing boiler, it is recommended that
the heating system is designed so that a temperature
differential of 20° C between the flow and return is
maintained. The use of modulating circulating pumps
(now widely available) and effective control systems
should be considered.
The Grant Euroflame condensing boiler will however
still operate at extremely high efficiencies even when
it is not in condensing mode and therefore is suitable
for fitting to an existing heating system without
alteration to the radiator sizes. The boiler is capable of
a maximum flow temperature of 75° C.
1 - INTRODUCTION
How a condensing boiler works
1.1 Heating system design considerations
1.2
To achieve the maximum efficiencies possible from
the Grant Euroflame condensing boiler, the heating
system should be designed to the following
parameters:
Radiators:-
Flow temperature 70° C
Return temperature 50° C
Differential 20° C
Underfloor:-
Flow temperature 50° C
Return temperature 40° C
Differential 10° C
1 Size radiators with a mean water temperature of
60° C.
2 Design system controls with programmable room
thermostats or use weather compensating controls
to maintain return temperatures below 55° C.
The boiler should not be allowed to operate with
return temperatures of less than 40° C when the
system is up to operating temperature.
3 The use of a pipe stat is recommended to control
the return temperature when using weather
compensating controls.

2 - USER INSTRUCTIONS
The boiler is fully automatic once switched on, providing
central heating (and also heating your domestic hot water
if you have a hot water cylinder fitted).
If your system includes a remote programmer, the
boiler will provide hot water and central heating
during the periods set on the programmer.
To gain access to the controls, remove the front panel
by turning the handle and withdrawing it forwards at
the bottom.
Controls for Euroflame Condensing Modules - Fig. A
1Ensure that - There is sufficient fuel, of the correct
type, in the supply tank and all fuel supply valves are
open. The water supply is on. The electricity supply
to the boiler is off. The room thermostat (if fitted) is
at the desired setting. The boiler thermostat is set to
the required setting (see Section 2.7).
2 Switch on the electricity supply to the boiler.
3 If you have a remote programmer fitted in your
system, refer to the instructions supplied with the
programmer and set the programmer. Set the HW and
CH functions to TIMED. The boiler will now operate
during the 'on' periods set on the programmer.

Switch off the electricity supply to the boiler. If required,
the fuel supply valve may be closed and the water and
electricity supplies turned off at the mains.
To restart, refer to the full lighting instructions given
in Section 2.3.
1 Check that the boiler electrical supply is ON.
2 Check that any remote programmer (if fitted) is
working and is in an 'on' period.
3 Check that all thermostats are set to the desired
setting and are calling for heat.
4 Check if the burner 'Lock-out' reset button (on the
burner) is lit. If it is, press it to start the burner. If
the burner fails to light and goes to 'Lock-out'
again, check that you have sufficient fuel in the
storage tank and that the fuel supply valve is open.
Check that the fire valve in the oil supply line has not
tripped
5 Ensure that a fuse has not blown or that the
electricity supply has not failed.
6 Check to see if the safety thermostat has operated
(see Section 2.7).
If the burner still fails to light after carrying out these
checks then a fault exists. Switch off the electricity
supply to the boiler and contact your Service engineer.
Grant Euroflame condensing modules operate on Class
C2 Kerosene only. You should always quote the type of
fuel you require when ordering from your supplier.
Do not wait until the fuel runs out before you order
some more. Sludge in the bottom of the tank may be
drawn into the fuel lines. If it is possible, switch off the
boiler when the new supply is delivered and leave the
fuel to settle for an hour before restarting the boiler.
1 Boiler thermostat - This control allows the
temperature of the water leaving the boiler to heat
the radiators and domestic hot water to be adjusted.
Note: If you have a cylinder thermostat on your hot
water cylinder, this will control the temperature of
your domestic hot water. The boiler thermostat
setting must be equal to or above the cylinder
thermostat setting to enable the cylinder thermostat
to control the domestic hot water system.
2 Burner Lock-out reset button - If there is a
burner malfunction, a built-in safety circuit
switches the burner off and the 'Lock-out' reset
button (on the burner) will light. Usually such
malfunctions are short lived and pressing the reset
button will restore normal operation.
If the burner continually goes to 'Lock-out' a fault
exists or the fuel supply is low. If you have
sufficient fuel, you will need to call your Service
engineer.
3 Safety thermostat - Your boiler is fitted with a
safety overheat thermostat which will automatically
switch off the boiler in the case of a control
malfunction causing overheating.
If your boiler goes off and you try to light it but
nothing happens and the 'Lock-out' reset button on
the burner is not lit, the overheat thermostat has
probably operated. The boiler will not light until
the thermostat is reset. To reset, unscrew the small
plastic cap (see Fig. A), press the button then
replace the cap.
If this condition continually repeats, contact your
Service engineer.
4 Ventilation - Always ensure that the boiler has
adequate ventilation. Any ventilation openings
must not be obstructed. Periodically check that
they are clear.
Do not attempt to 'box in' the boiler or build a
compartment around.
Do not place any combustible material around or
on the boiler or flue pipe.
Do not place anything against the door of the
Euroflame condensing modules that might obstruct
the ventilation openings.

5 Flue terminal - The flue terminal must not be
obstructed or damaged.
In severe conditions check that the terminal does
not become blocked by snow.
6 Frost protection - Your Installer may have fitted a
frost thermostat. If not, and you are likely to be
away for a short time, leave the boiler on with the
boiler thermostat set at a low setting. For longer
periods the boiler and system should be drained.
Contact your Service engineer for draining and
filling the system.
Note: For Euroflame condensing modules we
recommend that a combined antifreeze and corrosion
inhibitor be used in the primary water system.
7 Cleaning and servicing - Lightly wipe over the
case with a damp cloth and a little detergent. Do
not use abrasive pads or cleaners.
You must have your boiler serviced at least once a
year to ensure safe and efficient operation. Contact
your Service engineer for further details.
Note: External equipment operated at 230 volts
should not be serviced or repaired under adverse
weather conditions.
8 Failure of electricity supply - If the electricity
supply fails, the boiler will not operate. It should
relight automatically when the supply is restored.
The boiler requires a 230/240 V ~ 50 Hz supply. It
must be protected by a 5 Amp fuse.
Warning: This appliance must be earthed.
If your boiler is operating on a sealed heating system,
the installer will have pressurised the system and
should have told you (or set it on the pressure gauge)
the system pressure when cold (this is normally
between 0.5 and 1.0 bar, which will increase slightly
when hot). If the pressure (when cold) is below the set
pressure mentioned above, you can re-pressurise the
system. If the system requires frequent re-pressurising,
ask your Installer or Service engineer to check the
heating system for leaks and to check the expansion
vessel air charge.
The boiler or system will be fitted with an automatic
air vent to remove air from the system. Any air trapped
in the radiators should be removed by venting the
radiators using the vent screw at the top of each
radiator. Only vent a radiator if the top is cool and the
bottom is hot. Excessive venting will reduce the
system pressure, so only vent when necessary and
check the system pressure as mentioned above. Re-
pressurise the system if necessary.
The boiler or system may be fitted with a safety valve
to release excess pressure from the system. If water or
steam is emitted from the end of the safety valve
discharge pipe, switch off the boiler and contact your
Installer or Service engineer.
The expansion vessel air charge must be checked
annually. Failure to maintain an adequate air
charge in the vessel may invalidate the warranty.
To re-pressurise the system by adding water:
1 Only add water to the system when it is cold and
the boiler is off. Do not overfill.
2 Ensure the flexible filling loop (see Fig. B) is
connected and that the shut off valve connecting it
to the boiler is open and the double check valve at
the front is closed.
A valve is open when the operating lever is in line with
the valve, and closed when it is at right angles to it.
3 Gradually open the double check valve on the front
of the filling loop until water is heard to flow.
4 Vent each radiator in turn, starting with the lowest
one in the system, to remove air.
5 Continue to fill the system until the pressure gauge
indicates between 0.5 and 1.0 bar. Close the fill
point valve.
6 Repeat steps 4 and 5 as required.
7 Close the valves either side of the filling loop and
disconnect the loop.

4.4.5 Tiger Loop system - (See Figs. 4 and 5)
1 When the storage tank is below the burner, an
alternative to a two pipe system can be achieved
using the 'Tiger Loop' type oil deaerator. This
effectively removes the air from the oil supply on a
single pipe lift.
2 The de-aerator is connected close to the boiler as a
two pipe system (omitting the non-return valve) as
shown in Fig. 4. Refer to the manufacturers
instructions supplied with the de-aerator.
The de-aerator must be mounted vertically and
externally.
3 To be used with a de-aerator, the burner must be
fitted with an additional flexible fuel hose (a
flexible fuel hose (600 mm) and 3/8" to 1/4" BSP
male adaptor are available to purchase from your
local stockist. See Section 4.4.6.
4.4.4 Two pipe system - (See Fig. 3)
1 When the storage tank outlet is below the burner,
the two pipe system should be used. The pipe runs
should be as shown in Fig. 3. The return pipe
should be at the same level in the tank as the
supply pipe, both being 75 to 100 mm above the
base of the tank. The pipe ends should be a
sufficient distance apart so as to prevent any
sediment disturbed by the return entering the
supply pipe.
2 Avoid the bottom of the tank being more than 3 m
below the burner.
3 A non-return valve should be fitted in the supply
pipe together with the filter and fire valve. A non-
return valve should be fitted in the return pipe if
the top of the tank is above the burner.
4 To be used with a two-pipe system, the burner
must be fitted with an additional flexible fuel hose
(a flexible fuel hose (600 mm) and 3/8" to 1/4" BSP
male adaptor are available to purchase from your
local stockist. See Section 4.4.6.
5 The pump vacuum should not exceed 0.4 bar.
Beyond this limit gas is released from the oil.
For guidance on installation of top outlet fuel tanks and
suction oil supply sizing, see OFTEC Technical Book 3.

The flow and return pipework can exit the boiler
enclosure either through the openings provided in both
sides (under the movable cover plates) and through the
wall when installed against the building, or down and
through the openings provided in the base of the
enclosure for 'free standing' installations.
Fit drain cocks in the central heating and domestic hot
water systems to allow the complete system to be fully
drained.
Ensure the flow pipe is vented as its the highest point
of the boiler.
To avoid the danger of dirt and foreign matter entering
the boiler the complete heating system should be
thoroughly flushed out - before the boiler is connected
and then again after the system has been heated and is
still hot. This is especially important where the boiler
is used on an old system.
For optimum performance after installation, this boiler and its
associatedcentralheatingsystemmustbeflushedinaccordance
with the guidelines given in BS 7593:1992 'Treatment of water
in domestic hot water central heating systems'.
This must involve the use of a proprietary cleaner,
such as BetzDearborn's Sentinel X300 or X400, or
Fernox Restorer. Full instructions are supplied with
the products, but for immediate information, please
contact BetzDearborn on 0151 4209563 or Fernox on
0179 9550811.
For Long term protection against corrosion and scale,
after flushing, it is recommended that an inhibitor such as
Betzdearborn's Sentinel X100 or Fernox MB-1 is dosed
in accordance with the guidelines given in BS 7593:1992.
Failure to implement the guidelines will invalidate the
warranty.

6 Provision should be made to replace water lost
from the system. This can be done manually (where
allowed by the local water undertaking) using an
approved filling loop arrangement incorporating a
double check valve assembly.
7 An automatic air vent should be fitted to the
highest point of the system, as the air vent fitted to
the boiler is for venting the boiler only.
8 The system design pressure (cold) should be between
0.5 and 1.0 bar. This pressure is equivalent to the
maximum static head in bar + 0.3 (1 bar = 10.2 metres
of water).
9 All fittings used in the system must be able to
withstand pressures up to 3 bar.
10 Radiator valves must comply with the requirements
of BS 2767(10):1972.
11 One or more drain taps (to BS 2879) must be used
to allow the system to be completely drained.
12 For proprietary expansion vessel/valve/gauge
packs, refer to the manufacturers instructions for
the correct location on the heating system.
13 An automatic filling valve should not be fitted.
Also refer to Sections 6.5 and 6.6.
1 A 15 mm discharge pipe must be connected to the
safety valve outlet connection. The pipework between
the safety valve and the boiler must be unrestricted,
i.e. no valves. The discharge pipe should terminate so
that it cannot cause injury to persons or property.
2 A 15 mm double check valve ballofix type valve is
provided on the flexible filling loop hose for
connection of the cold mains supply to the heating
system. The cold mains supply should terminate
inside the boiler casing.
3 A drain cock is fitted at the bottom on the front of
the boiler to allow the heating system to be drained
4 The expansion vessel is connected via a flexible
hose to allow it to be moved to gain access to the
baffle cleaning cover. When replacing the vessel,
care should be taken to ensure that the flexible
connecting hose is not twisted.
On underfloor systems it is essential that the return
temperature must be maintained above 40° C to
prevent internal corrosion of the boiler water jacket.
General - Grant boilers are compatible with both
copper and plastic pipe. Where plastic pipe is used it
must be of the oxygen barrier type and be of the
correct class (to BS 7291:Part 1:1990) for the
application concerned.
IMPORTANT: The first metre of pipework
connected to both the heating flow and return
connections of the boiler must be made in copper on
all types of system - sealed or open-vented.
Sealed systems - If plastic pipe is to be used, the
installer must check with the plastic pipe manufacturer
that the pipe to be used is suitable for the temperature
and pressures concerned. Pipe must be Class S to BS
7291: Part 1:1990.
Underfloor systems - Plastic pipe may be used on
Underfloor systems where the plastic pipe is fitted
after the thermostatic mixing valve. Copper tube must
be used for at least the first metre of flow and return
primary pipework between the boiler and the
underfloor mixing/blending valves.

When in condensing mode the Grant Euroflame
condensing boilers produce condensate from the water
vapour in the flue gases. This condensate is slightly
acidic with a ph value of around 3 (similar to vinegar).
Provision must be made for the safe and effective
disposal of this condensate.
Condensate can be disposed of using one of the
following methods of connection:
Internal connection (preferred option)
• into an internal domestic waste system (from
kitchen sink, washing machine, etc.)
• directly into the soil stack
External connection
• into an external soil stack
• into an external drain or gulley
• into a rainwater hopper (that is part of a combined
system where sewer carries both rainwater and foul
water)
• purpose made soakaway
All condensate disposal pipes MUST be fitted with a
trap - whether they are connected internally or
externally to a domestic waste system/soil stack or run
externally to a gully, hopper or soakaway.
Connections into a rainwater hopper, external drain or
gulley should be terminated inside the hopper/drain/
gulley below the grid level but above the water level.
Condensate disposal pipes should not be connected
directly into rainwater downpipes or to waste/soil
systems connected to septic tanks.
Condensate should not be discharged into 'grey water'
systems that re-use water used in the home (not
including water from toilets).
It should be noted that connection of a condensate pipe
to the drain may be subject to local Building Control
requirements.
Condensate disposal pipework must be plastic (plastic
waste or overflow pipe is suitable).
IMPORTANT: Copper or steel pipe is NOT suitable
and MUST NOT be used.
Condensate disposal pipes should have a minimum
'nominal' diameter of 22 mm (¾") - e.g. use 21.5 mm
OD polypropylene overflow pipe.
Condensate disposal pipes must be fitted with a fall
(away from the boiler) of at least 2.5° (~45 mm fall
per metre run).
Note: Where it is not possible for the pipe to fall
towards the point of discharge - either internally into a
waste system or externally to a gulley (e.g. for boilers
installed in a basement), it will be necessary to use a
condensate pump.
Condensate disposal pipes should be kept as short as
possible and the number of bends kept to a minimum.
Pipes should be adequately fixed to prevent sagging,
i.e. at no more than 0.5 metre intervals.
External pipework
Ideally, external pipework, or pipework in unheated
areas, should be avoided. If unavoidable, external
pipework should be kept as short as possible (less than
3 metres) and 32 mm waste pipe used to minimise the
risk of ice blocking the pipe in freezing conditions.
The number of bends, fittings and joints on external
pipes should be kept to a minimum to reduce the risk
of trapping condensate.
Note: For boiler installed in an unheated area such as
an outhouse or garage, all condensate pipework should
be considered as an ‘external’.
To keep external pipework to a minimum, locate the
soakaway as close as possible to the boiler but ensure
it is at least 1 metre from building foundations and
away from other services, e.g. gas, electricity, etc.
The condensate pipe may be run above or below
ground level and can enter either the top or side of the
soakaway tube. Refer to Fig. 11.
Ensure that the drainage holes in the soakaway tube
face away from the building.
Backfill both the soakaway tube, and the hole around
it, with 10 mm limestone chippings.

soil is poorly drained.
WARNING: Any damage due to condensate backing
up into the boiler due to a high water table, in the case
of a soakaway, or flooded drains when the condensate
disposal is via a gulley or soil stack, is not covered by
the Grant product warranty.
Grant Euroflame condensing modules are supplied with a
factory-fittedcondensatetrapto provide the required 75 mm
water seal in the condensate discharge pipe from the boiler.
This trap incorporates a float (which will create a seal
when the trap is empty) and an overflow warning
outlet (fitted with a plastic sealing cap), See Fig. 12.
Condensate trap
5.5
The trap is factory-fitted inside the boiler casing,
mounted in the rear of the boiler (opposite end to the
burner) on the inside of the right hand side panel - in
an accessible position to allow for routine
maintenance. See Fig. 9.
A flexible hose connects the outlet of the condensing
heat exchanger to the trap inlet. Ensure the straight
connector on the hose is fully pushed onto the 'top hat'
inlet connector of the trap.
With the trap fitted inside the boiler casing, the sealing
cap MUST be fitted.
If connecting the condensate discharge (either internally
or externally) into a waste system or soil stack - the
sealing cap MUST be fitted in the trap outlet.
