1.10 WATER CIRCULATION SYSTEM
IMPORTANT: A minimum length of 1 metre of copper
pipe MUST be tted to both ow and return connections from
the boiler before connection to any plastic piping.
The central heating system should be in accordance with
BS6798 and, in addition, for smallbore and microbore systems,
BS5449.
Water treatment is covered later in these instructions.
Refer to Section
1.17
1.11 BOILER CONTROLS
System controls should be installed to ensure the boiler has
no demand when there is no requirement from the system, in
compliance with Building Regulations.
Heating systems utilising full thermostatic radiator valve control
of temperature in individual rooms should also be tted with a
room thermostat controlling the temperature in a space served
by radiators not tted with such a valve.
When thermostatic radiator valves are used, the space
heating temperature control over a living / dining area or
hallway having a heating requirement of at least 10% of the
minimum boiler heat output should be achieved using a room
thermostat, whilst other rooms are individually controlled by
thermostatic radiator valves. However, if the system employs
thermostatic radiator valves on all radiators, or two port valves,
then a bypass circuit must be tted with an automatic bypass
valve to ensure a ow of water should all valves be in the
closed position.
1.12 ELECTRICALSUPPLY
WARNING: This appliance must be earthed
Wiring external to the appliance MUST be in accordance with
the current I.E.E. (BS7671) Wiring Regulations and any local
regulations which apply.
The mains supply to the boiler and system wiring centre
shall be through one common fused double pole isolator and
for new heating systems, and where practical replacement
installations, the isolator shall be situated adjacent to the
appliance.
1.13 CONDENSATE DRAIN
The condensate drain provided must be connected to the
drainage point on site. All condensate drainage pipework and
ttings must be made of plastic.
IMPORTANT: The condensate drain pipework should
be installed in accordance with BS6798.
The drain outlet on the boiler is sized for standard 21.5 mm
overow pipe. It is a universal tting to allow use of di󰀨erent
brands of pipework.
Refer to Section
2.15
1.8 AIR SUPPLY
It is not necessary to have an air vent in the room or internal
space where the boiler is installed.
1.9 GAS SUPPLY
Consult the local gas supplier to establish an adequate supply
of gas. Do not use existing service pipes without consulting the
local gas supplier.
The gas supply must be governed with a meter.
A gas meter can only be connected by the local gas supplier or
by a Gas Safe Registered Engineer.
An existing meter should be checked, preferably by the gas
supplier, to ensure that the meter is adequate to deal with the
required gas supply rate.
It is the responsibility of the Gas Installer to size the gas
installation pipework in accordance with BS6891.
Whilst the principle of the 1:1 gas valve ensures the Logic
range is able to deliver it is full output at inlet pressures as low
as 14 mb, other gas appliances in the property may not be as
tolerant. When operating pressures are found to be below the
minimum meter outlet of 19 mb these should be checked to
ensure this is adequate for correct and safe operation.
Allowing for the acceptable pressure loss of 1mb across the
installation pipework, it can be assumed that a minimum
permitted operating pressure of 18mb will be delivered to the
inlet of the appliance.
(Reference BS6400-1 Clause 6.2 Pressure Absorption).
The external gas cock could further reduce the operating
pressure when measured at its test point. The pressure drop
is relative to the heat input to the boiler (kW), refer to graph
below.
IMPORTANT: Ensure all gas valve connections are
gas tight with a gas soundness check up to the gas control
valve.
Installation pipes must be tted in accordance with BS6891.
The complete installation MUST be tested for gas tightness
and purged as described, for the majority of installations the
appropriate standard is IGEM/UP/1B [23], but alternatively
IGEM/UP/1 [21] or IGEM/UP/1A [22], as appropriate, can be
utilized.

Installation and Servicing
Section 1 - General
a. The method of lling, relling, topping up or ushing sealed
primary hot water circuits from the mains via a temporary
hose connection is only allowed if acceptable to the local
water authority.
b. Antifreeze uid, corrosion and scale inhibitor uids suitable
for use with boilers having aluminium heat exchangers may
be used in the central heating system.
General
1. The installation must comply with all relevant national and
local regulations.
2. Design the system for ow temperatures up to 80oC.
3. The system components must be suitable for an operating
pressure of 3 bar and a maximum temperature of 110°C.
The following components are incorporated within the
appliance:
a. Circulating pump.
b. PRV, with a non-adjustable preset lift pressure of
3 bar.
c. Pressure gauge, covering a range of 0 to 4 bar.
d. An 8 litre expansion vessel, with an initial charge
pressure of 0.75 bar.
4. Makeup Water. One of the following provisions must be
made for replacing system water loss:
a. Manually lled vessel
The vessel must:
Have a visible water level
Be mounted at least 150 mm above the system’s
highest point
Connect through a non-return valve to the system
Be at least 150 mm below the makeup vessel on the
return side of the radiators
b. System prepressurisation.
The e󰀩ciency of the expansion vessel will be
reduced in a pressurised system; a larger vessel or
smaller system volume may be necessary.
If the vessel’s capacity is not su󰀩cient, an additional
vessel must be installed on the return to the boiler.
If the system is not pressurised, the cold water
capacity must not exceed 143 litres.
Guidance on vessel sizing is given in table above.

5. Filling
The system may be lled by the following method:
Where the mains pressure is excessive a pressure
reducing valve must be used to facilitate lling.
a. Thoroughly ush out the whole system with cold
water.
b. Fill and vent the system until the pressure gauge
registers 1 bar and examine for leaks
c. Check that a 15 mm diameter pipe is correctly
located and secured (using the clip supplied)
d. Check the operation of the PRV by raising the water
pressure until the valve lifts. This should occur within
0.3 bar of the preset lift pressure.
e. Check no escape of water occurs except at the
discharge point
f. Release water from the system until the
minimum system design pressure is reached;
1.0 bar if the system is to be pre-pressurised.

Section 1 - General
Note. Systems incorporating zone valves which could
completely cut o󰀨 the ow through the system must also
include a bypass.
The boiler does not normally need a bypass but at least
some radiators on the heating circuit, of load of at least 10%
of the minimum boiler output, must be provided with twin
lockshield valves so that this minimum heating load is always
available.
Balancing
1. Set the programmer to ON.
Close the manual or thermostatic valves on all radiators,
leaving the twin lockshield valves (on the radiators
referred to above) in the OPEN position.
Turn up the room thermostat and adjust the lockshield
valve to give an uninterrupted ow through the radiator.
These valves should now be left as set.
2. Open all manual or thermostatic radiator valves and
adjust the lockshield valves on the remaining radiators, to
give around 20oC temperature drop at each radiator.
3. Adjust the room thermostat and programmer to
NORMAL settings.
1.17 WATER TREATMENT
1.16 SYSTEM BALANCING
Central Heating
The Logic range of boilers have an ALUMINIUM alloy heat
exchanger.
IMPORTANT The application of any other treatment
to this product may render the guarantee of Ideal Heating
invalid.
The Ideal System Filter will aid against the build up of iron
oxide debris, however the below water treatment is also
recommended by Ideal Heating.
Ideal Heating recommend Water Treatment in accordance
with the Benchmark Guidance Notes on Water Treatment in
Central Heating Systems.
If water treatment is used Ideal Heating recommend only the
use of SCALEMASTER SM-1 PRO, FERNOX, MBI,ADEY MC1,
SENTINEL X100 or CALMAG CM100 inhibitors and associated
water treatment products, which must be used in accordance
with the manufacturers’ instructions.
This boiler can be used with a water softener. However, the
heating system should not be lled with softened water as
any softening chemicals could enhance corrosion of certain
materials inw the heating system, including aluminium and
steel. The heating system should always be lled from the
bypass on the water softener installation.
Notes
1. It is most important that the correct concentration of the
water treatment products is maintained in accordance
with the manufacturers’ instructions.
2. If the boiler is installed in an existing system any
unsuitable additives MUST be removed by thorough
cleansing. BS7593:2019 details the steps necessary to
clean a domestic heating system.
3. In hard water areas, treatment to prevent lime scale may
be necessary - however the use of articially softened
water is NOT permitted.
4. Under no circumstances should the boiler be red before
the system has been thoroughly ushed.
