1.0 Operating the Boiler

1.1 In Operation

The Potterton Promax SL is a range of high efficiency

condensing boilers.

In common with other condensing boilers its exceptional

efficiency means the flue gases are cooled to such an extent

that steam is often visible at the outside flue terminal.

The amount produced depends on system design, product use

and outside air temperature but it is not harmful to the

individual or the working of the boiler in any way.

Other Controls

A Potterton Electronic Programmer or other type of clock

should have been fitted in your system, together with heating

and hot water controls. Full instructions on the use of these

controls will have been supplied with them.

1.2 To Light

1. Ensure that the main gas and electricity supplies to the boiler

are ON.

2. The fan will start to run and after a short period the ignition

spark will commence. Sparking will continue until the flame is

established then stop automatically. Check that a flame is

visible through the sight glass.
