3.1 Standards, regulations and directives
3.2 Notes on installation and operation
When installing and operating the heating system observe the following:
• local building regulations regarding the installation conditions
• local building regulations regarding ventilation and extract air
systems and the chimney connection
• regulations regarding connection to the power supply
• technical rules of the gas supplier regarding the connection of the gas
burner to the public mains gas supply.
• Regulations and standards regarding the safety equipment level of
water-filled heating systems.
The following also applies in Switzerland:
The boilers have been tested and approved by the SVGW in accordance
with the requirements of the Clean Air Regulation (LRV, Appendix 4) and
the Fire Safety Regulations Guide from the VKF. During installation,
observe the guidelines for installing and operating combustion
equipment G3 d/f, the gas guidelines G1 from the SVGW, and local fire
safety regulations in force within the canton.
In Austria, the guidelines G 1 (ÖVGW TR-Gas) and the regional building
regulations must be observed during installation. The requirements
concerning safety measures for small-scale combustion equipment
(emissions) and energy saving measures (efficiency levels) according to
Art. 15a B-VG have been met, as have the ordinances used to implement
these requirements at a local level.
The following is to be observed for Belgium:
• Stipulations of the Belgian Royal Decree of 17/07/2009 (maximum
CO value with 100% burner load = 110 mg/kWh and NOx <
70 mg/kWh; see Declaration of Conformity).
• NBN D 51-003 - Internal lines for natural gas and positioning of the
consumer units - General regulations
• NBN B 61-001 - Boiler rooms and chimneys: Boilers with a power
rating of 70 kW or higher - Regulations for the installation room, the
air supply and flue gas extraction.
3.3 Duty to obtain a permit and provide notification
▶ The local gas supplier must be notified of and approve the gas boiler
installation.
▶ Please note that regional approvals may be required for the flue
system and the connection of the condensate outlet to the public
sewerage system.
▶ Prior to commencing installation, inform the local flue gas inspector
(where appropriate) and water authority.
3.4 Installation location
3.5 Quality of the heating water
As pure water cannot be used for heat transfer, water quality is
important. Poor water quality can damage heating systems due to scale
formation and corrosion.
3.6 Pipework quality
When using plastic pipes in the heating system, for example in
underfloor heating systems, ensure these are impermeable to oxygen. If
the plastic pipes do not comply with these standards, they must be
separated from the rest of the system using a heat exchanger.
3.7 Frost protection
During installation and operation of the heating system,
observe all country-specific standards and guidelines.
Also observe the details on the boiler data plate.
NOTICE: Risk of damage to the system from frost!
▶ Site the heating system in a room safe from the risk of
frost.
DANGER: Risk of fire from flammable materials or
liquids!
▶ Never store flammable materials or liquids in the
immediate vicinity of the boiler.
NOTICE: Boiler damage through contaminated
combustion air or contaminated air in the vicinity of the
boiler!
▶ Never operate the boiler under dusty conditions or
where the atmosphere is contaminated with
corrosive substances. These might be, for example,
paint shops, hairdressing salons and agricultural
operations (manure).
▶ Never operate boilers where trichloroethene,
halogenated hydrocarbons or other corrosive
chemical substances are used or where such
material is stored. These substances are contained,
for example, in certain adhesives, solvents, cleaning
agents and paints. In such cases, always select
balanced flue operation in a separate, hermetically
sealed installation room that has a fresh air supply.
Water quality is an essential factor for increased
efficiency, functional reliability, long service life and for
maintaining the constant operational condition of a
heating system.
▶ Observe the water quality requirements contained in
the "Water Quality Operator's Log".
▶ Warranty claims for the boilers will only be
considered provided the water quality requirements
have been met and the operator’s log has been
maintained.
NOTICE: Boiler damage through corrosion!
▶ Never operate this boiler as a gravity-fed or as open
vented heating system.
NOTICE: System damage through frost!
▶ If there is the risk that pipework may freeze up when
operating in room temperature-dependent mode
(e.g. radiator in a garage), set the pump overrun time
to 24 hours.
