INSTALLATION
2. INSTALLING THE BOILER
2.1 Boiler Location
For the assembly and because of their design, GTE boilers require
no special base or stand and their closed furnace system means
that the floor need not have refractory properties. All you have to
ensure is that the floor can support the weight of the boiler when it
is fitted for operation. If the boiler location is not determined precisely,
leave enough space around the boiler to facilitate monitoring and
maintenance operations.

comply with minimum clearance dimension D.If A = 1.2 m (door opening side), A’ = 0.5 m
If A = 0.5 m, A’ = 1.2 m (door opening side) : adapt the dimensions

2.2 Ventilation
The ventilation shall comply with applicable regulations, particularly
codes of practice.
Detailed recommendations for air supply are quoted in B.S. 6644.
Please note : remember that boilers installed in or close to rooms
in which the atmosphere is polluted with chlorine or fluorine
compounds may be subject to high corrosion.
For example : hairdressing salons, industrial premises (solvents),
cooling equipment, etc.
Boiler installed in such locations shall not be covered by the warranty.

4.2 Installation Recommendations
The installation of the boiler MUST be in accordance with the
following British Standards and Codes of Practice:
BS. 799 Pts. 4, 5, 6 & 7 Oil Burning Equipment
BS. 5410 Pts. 2 & 3 Installations for Space Heating and Hot
Water Supply
BS. 5449 PT. 1 Hot Water Systems
BS. 5854 Flues and Flue Structures in Buildings
BS. 5885 Pt. 1 Gas Burners - with outputs of 60kW
upwards
BS. 6644 Installation of Gas Fired Boilers
BS. 6880 Low Temperature Hot Water
Heating Systems
BS. 6891 Low Pressure Gas Pipework
British Gas Industrial Gas Fired Boilers and
Publication No. IM.11 Air Heaters
General
Recommendations relating to the water system are contained in
BS. 5449 Pt. 1, BS. 1, BS. 5401 Pt.2, and BS. 6880.
The following must be conformed with:
Current Building Regulations and Clean Air Act
Water Authority Regulations
Local Authority Regulations and Regional bylaws
Gas Safety Regulations
Any special regional requirements of local Electricity and Gas
undertaking.
Fire Service and Insurance Company requirements.
All electrical wiring MUST comply with the current I.E.E. regulations
for the electrical equipment of buildings. In the interests of safety, a
competent installer should be employed to effect the installation of
the appliance. Manufacturer's notes must NOT, in any way, be taken
as over riding statutory obligations.

ASSEMBLY
4.3 Filling the System
Filling shall be performed with a low flow rate from a low point in the
boiler room in order to ensure that all the air in the boiler is bled
from the high point of the system.
Always stop the pump before filling.
VERY IMPORTANT :
Instructions for starting up the boiler for the first time after the
system is fully or partly drained :
NOTE:
Never replace a boiler in an existing system
without carefully rinsing the system first. Install a
sludge trap on the return pipe, very close to the
boiler.
If all the air is not bled naturally to an expansion vessel which opens
out onto the air, the system must include manual bleeder valves, in
addition to automatic bleeder valves with the capability to bleed the
system by themselves when it is operating. The manual bleeder
valves are used to bleed all the high points of the system and to
make sure that the filled system is free of air before the burner is
turned on.
General
Recommendations relating to the water system are contained in
BS. 5449 Pt. 2 and BS. 6880.
4.4 Sludge Removal
A tapped ø 2" hole with a plug has been provided on the bottom of
the front of the boiler. Fit a quarter-turn valve on the opening to
remove the sludge.
Sludge removal leads to the draining of large quantities of water, so
remember to refill the system after the operation.

5. CHIMNEY CONNECTION
The high-performance features of modern boilers and their use in
specific conditions as a result of the advance in burner technology
(e.g. first-stage or low modulation range operation) lead to very low
flue gas temperatures (less than 160°C).
This requires :
- Flue insulation.
- the use of flue pipes designed to enable the flow of
condensates which may result from such operating modes,
in order to prevent damage to the chimney.
- the installation of a draining tee at the foot of the chimney.
The use of a draught moderator is recommended as well.
5.1 Flue Size
Refer to applicable regulations while determining the size and height
of the flue. Please note that GTE boilers have pressurised and tight
furnaces and that the pressure at the outlet must not exceed 0 mbar,
unless special sealing precautions have been taken, for instance in
order to connect a static condenser.
Detailed recommendations relating to the design of flues for GAS
fired appliances are quoted in BS. 6644 and British Gas Publication
No. IM11, whilst BS. 5410 Pt. 3 similarly applies to OIL fired boilers.

ASSEMBLY
5.2 Connecting to the flue
The connection shall be removable, and offer minimum load losses,
i.e. it must be as short as possible with no sudden change in section.
Its diameter shall always be at least equal to that of the boiler outlet,
i.e. :
- ø 450 mm for 14-16 sections
- ø 500 mm for 17-20 sections
- Boilers with 21-25 sections are supplied with a plain plate.
The maximum cutout dimensions are 500 x 700 mm.
Fit a measuring point (ø 10 mm hole) on the flue, in order to adjust
the burner (combustion check).

• Place the frame on the floor, taking care to note the TOP
and FRONT positions.
• Fit the fastening brackets as shown, depending on the
type of boiler (one ø 12x40 screw, 19 mm spanner).
2
• Establish the location of the frame on the basis of the
opening direction of the furnace door and the length of the
burner. Leave enough clearance at the rear of the boiler for
water connections (see § 4.1 of the instructions) and the
distributing tube (see § 2 of the instructions and fig. 23 in
this booklet).
• Fit the rear section on the frame, behind the fastening
brackets (see detailed drawing) and prop it up.
• Insert the lower assembly rods in the holes of the rear section
and the fastening brackets of the frame, in order to position
the rear section correctly according to the frame.

• Carefully insert the thermocord in the grooves of the section
and retain it in place with a few drops of silicone filler (every
30 cm approximately).
Note : do not pull on the seal while inserting it.
Otherwise, you may stretch it and reduce its thickness.

• Clean the bores and nipples with solvent.
Remove any traces of rust-protective paint so that
the surface is perfectly smooth. Coat with the
lubricant supplied with the sections.
7
• Place the first normal intermediate section, making sure
that it is turned in the right direction, i.e. with the flattening
groove against the thermocord.
• For safety, insert a lateral assembly rod (supplied) in the
holes of the two sections.
• Push the section gently and simultaneously onto both
nipples of the rear section with a hammer and a piece of
wood positioned in line with the bores.
• Put the assembly tool in position.
Tighten gradually so as to bring together the upper and
lower connections evenly and simultaneously.
89
• Assemble the remaining intermediate sections one by one,
to the procedure stated in figures 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8.
First assemble the normal intermediate sections, then the
special ones (see page 11 of this booklet).
Leave the assembly tool in place.

• Trim off any projecting ends of the thermocords from
the sweeping covers.
• On the lower assembly rods, fit the following at each end
in the given order : an expansion spring, a washer and a
nut (the holes of the front lugs must be aligned with the
holes of the frame brackets as the assembly rods are used
to make the boiler body integral with the frame).
• Stop tightening as soon as the gap between the spring
spires is equal to about 2 mm.
11 Fitting the Upper and Lower Assembly Rods 12 Fitting the Upper and Lower Assembly Rods
• Put in place the upper assembly rods in the two front and
rear lugs.
• Mount the two crosspieces (supplied in package FA5 / FA6)
with their bends turned backwards and fasten them to the
rods with an expansion spring, a nut and a washer.
• Remove the assembly tool.
