•As dictated by current legislation, this appliance must be installed exclusively by qualified personnel. Before
starting the boiler for the first time, make sure that it is connected to a water supply and central heating system
compatible with its performance characteristics.
•The room must be ventilated by means of an air intake positioned at floor level and protected with a grill. Make
sure the grill does not reduce the passage section.
•The air inflow from adjacent rooms is allowed providing that those rooms are in depression with respect to the
atmosphere and that there are not fireplace or fan installed. When the appliance is installed outdoor, i.e. on
balcony or terrace, make sure it is not directly exposed to atmospheric agents to prevent any damage to
components which would lead to a warranty invalidation. It is recommended to provide the boiler with a
protective casing/box against bad whether conditions.
•Check the technical data reported on the packing and on the rating plate located on the inside of the front
casing. Also check that the burner is appropriate for the type of gas to burn.
•Make sure that the pipes and fittings used for the gas service are perfectly tight and that there are no
gas leaks.
•Prior to start-up, the central heating pipes should be flushed to remove any residues that could compromise the
operation of the appliance.
•The appliance can be regarded as being electrically safe when it has been connected to an efficient earth
system installed in accordance with the requirements of current safety standards. This fundamental safety
requirement must be checked and verified. In case of doubt, have the electrical system checked by a qualified
electrician. The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damage or injury caused as a result of an ineffective
or non-existent earth system.
•The domestic power supply must be checked by a qualified electrician to ensure that it can support the
maximum power absorption of the appliance, as indicated on the appliance data plate (positioned on the inside
of the front casing). In particular, make sure that the cable ratings are adequate for the power absorbed.
•Do not use adapters; multiple sockets or extension leads to connect the appliance to the mains power supply.
•The appliance must be connected to the mains power supply through an appropriate electrical isolator in
accordance with the current wiring regulations.
•When using an electrical appliance, a few fundamental rules must be observed:

3.4 Installing the boiler
■ The appliance must be installed
exclusively on a flat vertical solid wall
capable of supporting its weight .
■ The boiler should be fitted within the building
unless otherwise protected by a suitable
enclosure i.e. garage or outhouse. (the boiler
may be fitted inside a cupboard .
■ If the boiler is sited in an unheated enclosure
then it is recommended to leave the power on
to give frost protection (frost protection is
active even with on/off switch in off position).
■ If the boiler is installed in a room containing a
bath or shower reference must be made to
the relevant requirements.
In order to allow access to the interior of the
boiler for maintenance purposes, it is important
that the necessary clearances indicated in figure
1 are respected. To make the installation easier,
the boiler is supplied with a template to enable
the pipe connections to be positioned prior to
fixing the appliance to the wall.
To install the boiler, proceed as follows (see fig.
2):
a. Use a spirit level (of not less than 25 mm
long) to mark a horizontal line on the wall
where the boiler is to be fitted.
b. Position the top of the template along the line
drawn with the level, respecting the distances
indicated. Then mark the centres of the
positions of the two wall-plugs or anchors.
Finally, mark the positions of the water and
gas pipes.
c. Remove the template and install the domestic
hot and cold water pipes, the gas supply pipe
and the central heating pipes using the
fittings supplied with the boiler.
Fix the boiler to the wall using the wall plugs or
bracket and connect the pipes.

3.5 Water connections
In order to safeguard the heat exchanger and
circulation pump, especially in case of boiler
replacement, it is recommended that the
system is hot-flushed to remove any impurities
(especially oil and grease) from the pipes and
radiators.
Make sure that the domestic water and central
heating pipes are not used to earth the
electrical system. The pipes are totally
unsuitable for this purpose.
Isolation Valves must be installed on the
heating and D.H.W circuits. This will facilitate
all maintenance and service operations where
the boiler needs to be drained.
■ To prevent vibration and noise coming from
■ the system, do not use pipes of reduced diameter,
short radius elbows or severe reductions in the cross
sections of the water passages.
■ To facilitate the installation, the boiler is supplied with
an hydraulic connection kit (see fig.2).
Domestic hot water circuit
■ In order to prevent scaling and eventual damage to
the D.H.W heat exchanger, the mains water supply
must not have a hardness rating of more than 17.5
°Ck. It is nevertheless advisable to check the
properties of the water supply and install the
appropriate treatment devices where necessary .
The cold water supply pressure at the inlet to the
boiler must be between 0.5 and 6 bar.
In areas with higher water inlet pressure a pressure
reducing valve must be fitted before the boiler.
The frequency of the heat exchanger coil cleaning depends on the hardness of the mains water supply and the
presence of residual solids or impurities, which are often present in the case of a new installation. If the
characteristics of the mains water supply are such that require it to be treated, then the appropriate treatment
devices must be installed, while in the case of residues, an in-line filter should be sufficient.
All D.H.W. circuits, connections, fittings, etc. should be fully in accordance with relevant standards and water supply
regulations.
Guidance G17 to G24 and recommendations R17 to R24 of the Water Regulation Guide.
Central heating circuit
In order to prevent scaling or deposits in the primary heat exchanger, the mains supply water to the heating circuit must be
treated according to the requirements of local standards.
This treatment is indispensable in the case where the circuit is frequently topped-up or when the system is often either partially
or fully drained.
The outlet connection of the boiler safety valve must be connected to a discharge trap. The manufacturer will not be
held responsible for flooding caused by the operation of the safety valve in the case of system overpressure.

Condensate Drain
The condensate drain flexible pipe supplied with the boiler must be connected to a proper condensate trap. The
condensate discharge into the drainage system is allowed providing a condensate trap (siphon) is installed.
Any condensate discharge pipe work external to the building (or in an unheated part of it) must be insulated to
protect against frost. Before switching the boiler On, check the correct condensate discharge.
3.6 D.H.W. circulating loop
In order to joint the D.H.W out loop pipe, proceed as follows:
a) unscrew the ½” cap A and insert a ½” nipple;
b) joint the nipple to the D.H.W. circulating pipe.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

3.7 Gas Connection
The connection to the gas supply must be carried out by professionally qualified personnel in
accordance with relevant standards:
When connecting the boiler to the gas supply pipe, only use appropriate washers and gas fittings. The
use of hemp, Teflon tape and similar materials is not allowed.
Before installing the boiler, check the following:
■ The pipe work must have a section appropriate for the flow rates requested and the pipe lengths installed, and
must be fitted with all the safety and control devices provided for by current standards.
■ The gas supply line must be a minimum of a 22 mm diameter pipe with an uninterrupted supply from meter to
boiler and comply with current standards and regulations.
■ Check the internal and external seals of the gas supply system.
■ A gas shut-off valve must be installed upstream of the appliance
■ The gas pipe work must have and bigger or equal section to the one of the boiler.
■ Before starting up the boiler, make sure that the type of gas corresponds to that for which the appliance has
been set-up (see gas type label inside the boiler).
■ The gas supply pressure must be between the values reported on the rating plate (see gas type label inside the
boiler).
■ Prior to installation, it is good practice to ensure that there are no machining residues on the gas supply pipe.
■ Conversion of the appliance from natural gas to LPG or vice versa must be carried out by qualified personnel ;
