1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Obligations of the user and guidelines concerning safety
To assure operational safety and maintain optimum operation
of the equipment:
read the manual of the boiler and observe their guidelines,
the manual should be kept and stored in a safe place in
the boiler room allowing using it at any moment of boiler
operation,
ensure that the equipment is never operated by children
or persons who have not read the contents of the manual
and adults with disabilities preventing them from the safe
operation,
the system should be made in compliance with the applica-
ble regulations and in accordance with the rules and recom-
mendations contained in the manual.
before setting and connecting the boiler check whether all
components are in good working order and whether the
boiler has a complete equipment,
the boiler should be inspected and cleaned at least once a
year and it should include removing a layer of deposited soot
and ash, which reduces the eciency of the boiler,
avoid exceeding water temperature in boiler over 95°C,
maintain operating pressure not exceeding 1.5 bar.
NOTE! Boiler installation in accordance with the applicable
standards and regulations and rst start-up should be car-
ried out by a qualied installer.
1.2. Selection of correct power of the boiler
Nominal power of purchased boiler (that is maximum thermal
eciency, which can be achieved during continuous use and
maintain the eciency declared by the producer) should be
selected in a way corresponding the real demand for thermal
energy even in case of occurrence of very low temperatures.
Do not purchase boiler with power higher than this planned
in the design. Selecting boiler with too high power will result in
higher fuel consumption and lack of full control over the com-
bustion process and therefore higher operation costs, while too
small boiler will not ensure sucient power necessary to heat
up the building.
Approximate boiler power can be calculated using a boiler
power calculator on our website www.pereko.pl. Furthermore,
you should also consider: thickness of walls and insulation, the
thermal permeability of rst x joinery (including: tightness of
windows and doors, type of window panels used) and climatic
zone, where the heated building is located.

2.5. Fuel
Wood pellet is a primary fuel used in the KSP Spark: PN-EN ISO
17225-2:2014– class A1. Fuel used for combustion in the boil-
er should have sucient caloric value > 17 MJ/kg, be dried
(moisture content ~ 10%) and have size recommended by the
producer 6±1 mm. Use of moist or too large fuel can lead to
locking in the feeder and serious failure of the boiler. Ash content
should be lower than 0.5%, the unfavourable chemical compo-
sition of the fuel can result in sintering and formation of large
amounts of dust and soot and increased fuel consumption.
3. BEFORE STARTUP
3.1. Boiler setting
The boiler requires non-ammable ooring, in form of a foun-
dation, but it is allowed to place it on non-ammable wall
base with height not lower than 50 mm. The boiler should be
placed in a way ensuring free access to the equipment, allowing
its cleaning and maintenance. Therefore it is recommended to
maintain the minimum distances when the boiler is set:
distance from the front of the boiler to opposite boiler room
wall should not be smaller than 2 m, Operation and main-
tenance manual,
the distance of boiler side from the wall of the boiler room
should be lower than 1 m,
the distance of rear part of the boiler from the wall of the
boiler room should be equal to at least length of the connec-
tion, that is 0.25 m.
The room, where the boiler is located, should have gravity
ventilation in good working order, including:
1. air-supply duct in the external wall with cross-section not
lower than 50% of chimney cross-sectional area on height
maximum 1 m over the ooring or not lower than 200 cm2
for boilers with power up to 25 kW or 400 cm2 for boilers
over 25 kW,
2. separate air-exhaust duct on the internal wall with
cross-section not lower than 140 × 140 mm with an outlet
located under the boiler-room roof near the chimney.
NOTE! It is forbidden to use mechanical exhaust ventilation
in the room where the boiler was installed.
9
PageOperation and maintenance manual for the KSP Spark series boilers equipped with feeders. The producer reserves the right to introduce technical modications.
3.2. Connection to chimney
1. It is necessary to prepare stand-alone, tight chimney ue,
which will be used for ue gas owing from the boiler.
2. The ue should be placed at least 0.5 m over the roof ridge
to avoid the occurrence of backdraught. The intersection of
the ue should be appropriately selected for the boiler power
and height of the chimney. The minimum cross-section of
masonry chimney should not be lower than 14 × 14 cm!
The intersection of non-insulated steel chimneys should be
bigger by 20%.
NOTE! It is recommended to use chimney system resistant
to corrosion, with a decanter for condensate, due to the
high eciency of the boiler and low temperature of ue
gases <120°C. Additionally the chimneys led outside the
building require insulation.
3. Check condition of the chimney (preferably by a chimney
sweep) before connecting the boiler to the chimney and
check whether the chimney is free from connections of the
heating elements.
4. The boiler should be connected with chimney using a con-
nector. It is not recommended to use the connection at a
straight angle because it will cause a loss in the chimney
draught. Flue with chimney should be joined with a connec-
tor made of steel sheet. We put it on the outlet from the ue,
x on the chimney and seal with high-temperature silicone.
The connector should be directed slightly upwards from 5°
to 20°. If boiler ue will have a length over 400 mm then
it is recommended to insulate it with a thermal insulation.
NOTE! The KSP Spark boilers heater should be installed in
accordance with the applicable Regulation of the Minister
of Infrastructure (Journal of Laws of 2002 no. 75 item 690
and Journal of Laws of 2009 no. 56 item 461.).

with the DHW exchanger module
3.3.4. Closed water installations
KSP Spark heating boilers red with solid fuels and with au-
tomatic fuel charging can be used in closed water heating
systems provided that the device intended for removal of heat
excess, that is two-function cooling valve REGULUS DBV-1, was
installed.
NOTE! The above equipment should be inspected mini-
mum twice per year. The rst inspection should be carried
out during seasonal start-up of the boiler with the water
distribution system.
12
Page Operation and maintenance manual for the KSP Spark series boilers equipped with feeders. The producer reserves the right to introduce technical modications.
3.4. Connection of the boiler to electrical system
The boiler requires an electrical system with rated voltage
230/50Hz in compliance with the applicable regulations. The
system should be terminated with plug-in socket equipped
with protective conductor contact with connected protective
conductor terminal PE to protect against electric shock.
3.5. Filling the system with water
3.5.1. Filling the boiler with water
before rst start-up
1. Flush heating system and boiler before lling it with water to
remove all contaminations.
2. Fill the system with water through the drain cock using the
exible hose. Water intended for feeding the heating boil-
er should meet the requirements of the PN-93/C-04607
standard. Quality of water lling the central heating system
inuences its durability therefore this water should be free
from the contaminations, oil and aggressive chemical sub-
stances. Water hardness should not exceed 2-4 (mval/l). Too
hard water causes deposition of sediment in the boiler and
heating system what decreases eciency and may damage
the boiler.
3. Stop feeding of water when the system is full that is water
will start owing out from the signalling pipe of the ex-
pansion vessel located in the highest point of the system or
when the pressure gauge indicates 1.5 bar. Relling should
take several seconds to make sure that the water ows down
from the vessel.
4. Close boiler drain cock and disconnect exible hose from the
equipment when the system is lled.
3.5.2. Relling the system with water
Heating system with open container allows direct contact of
heating water with the air what results in evaporation and ne-
cessity to rell it.
NOTE! It is forbidden to add cold water to the heated up
system. Adding water to heated boiler components may
damage it and is synonymous with loss of the warranty.
The system can be relled with water only when the boiler is
cold. Firing up should be restarted after lling the system.
3.5.3. Draining water from the system
It is not recommended to drain the water from the system after
the heating season because it increases the risk of occurrence
of the corrosion and formation of boiler scale. The exception
is a time needed to carry out necessary repair and long-term
standstills of the boiler during strong frosts. In the latter case, it
is recommended to drain water from the system (to avoid freez-
ing and therefore damaging of the system) and relling it with
water when the frost is over.

4.6. Cleaning and maintenance
4.6.1. Cleaning ash drawer
Check ash container every two days and empty it if necessary.
Ash drawer should be emptied on regular basis to ensure that
combustion residues are not reaching the base of the furnace.
Ash should be stored in a metal container with tight cover. The
container should be placed on the non-combustible substrate or
directly on the ground, in suitable distance from the combustible
materials, until the ash is completely quenched.
NOTE: Hot glow remains in the ash for a long time!
4.6.2. Furnace cleaning
If the ame if reddish or weak, and the smoke is emitted, it
can indicate that there are ash residues or formed deposits in
the furnace, preventing correct operation of the boiler and they
should be removed.
Remove furnace every two days. Lift it slightly and then
clean from ash and possible deposits. Pay special attention to
unclogging the holes using the sharpened tool. This operation is
particularly important if the pellet of unknown quality is used.
The frequency of this operation depends on the frequency of
boiler operation and type of fuel.
It is recommended to inspect the base of the furnace, clean-
ing it from possible ash.
NOTE: before start-up of the boiler you should check
whether the furnace is tightly moved to the rear towards
the ap and igniter tube is inserted to the opening in the
furnace.

4.6.3. Combustion chamber cleaning
Clean the combustion chamber, remove ash accumulating in the
chamber every week.
4.6.4. Cleaning window panel in the
doors
The glass panel in the doors should be cleaned when it is cold
and using ammonia-based degreasing and non-aggressive
agents such as a solvent. Do not allow contact of aggressive
agents with a paint covering the boiler because they could dam-
age it. The doors should be left open if the glass panel is hot prior
to cleaning to cool it down. Do not use materials, which may
damage or scratch the glass.
4.6.5. Battery replacement in remote
control
Replace used up the battery with a new one CR2025 3V paying
attention to the correct setting of the poles (pole are marked
on the remote control) and then close the remote control and
dispose of old battery in accordance with the applicable regula-
tions. Use only above-mentioned batteries.
4.6.6. Flue gas fan cleaning
NOTE: all operations connected with cleaning and/or
maintenance should be carried out when ELECTRICAL SUP-
PLY IS CUT OFF!
The boiler is equipped with ue gas fan located in its rear part.
Possible deposits of dust or ash, accumulating on fan blades,
lead to non-uniform and loud operation. It is necessary to clean
the fan at least once a year. The cleaning should be carried out
only by the service or qualied specialist because this operation
requires disassembling some parts of the boiler.
4.6.7. Service inspection and boiler
maintenance
These works are planned for execution min. once per year by
the service. They are indispensable to ensure ecient operation
of the equipment and they are a warranty of its safe operation.
Precise cleaning of combustion chamber and heat exchanger;
Cleaning of the ue gas motor, disassembly and cleaning
of the ue gas exhaust ducts, application of new silicone in
locations where it is foreseen;
Inspection and checking of tightness of seals, their replace-
ment and applying the silicone in locations where it is
foreseen;
Emptying and cleaning the tank;
Inspection of electrical part and electronic components;
Cleaning and inspection of pipe and pressure switch;
Inspection and possible replacement of wear and tear com-
ponents: furnace, heater, ash drawer etc.
It is recommended to carry out an inspection of the heat ex-
changer and remove mineral and lime deposits once a year
for models with the generation of tap water.
