1. Introduction Note: This boiler must be installed

and serviced by a competent person

in accordance with the Gas Safety

(Installation and Use) Regulations

1994. In the UK 'CORGI' Registered

Installers undertake the work to a

safe and satisfactory standard.

The TURBOmax is a fully

automatic, wall mounted, room sealed

combination boiler for central heating

and domestic hot water. Domestic hot

water is supplied directly from the

boiler, without requiring a copper

cylinder, cold water tank, feed and

expansion tank or associated

pipework. Domestic hot water has

priority over central heating.

The boiler has been designed for use

with a sealed central heating system,

and comes fully tested and assembled

with a built-in circulating pump,

bypass, expansion vessel and diverter

valve.

The TURBOmax carries the 'CE' Mark.

This demonstrates that the

boiler fulfils the essential requirements

of the Gas Appliance Directive

(Directive 90/396/EEC) and the Gas

Appliances (Safety) Regulations 1992.

The CE Mark also demonstrates that

the appliance complies with the

requirements of the Electromagnetic

Compatibility Directive (Directive

89/336/EEC) and the Low Voltage

Directive (Directive 73/23/EEC).

The TURBOmax range consists of

models with outputs for domestic hot

water of 24 and 28 kW. The boiler is

easily sited on any internal wall and

can be installed with either a horizontal

or vertical RSF (Room Sealed Fan

assisted) flue. Flue extensions and

additional bends and elbows are

available for increased siting flexibility.

(The boiler is not suitable for external

installation).

If desired an inhibitor may be used in

the system. Guidance on the use

of inhibitors is contained in these

instructions.

Natural Gas and LPG versions of the

boiler are available.

The boiler contains a domestic hot

water heat exchanger. The temperature

in the heat exchanger is limited by the

boiler control system and it is not

necessary to install a scale reducer on

the cold mains inlet to the boiler.

However, in exceptionally hard water

areas to prevent scale formation in the

property hot water system

pipework, a scale reducer may be

fitted.

The TURBOmax has built-in

diagnostic indicator lights which

illuminate in sequence, indicating the

operational status of the boiler. This

feature provides key information to

aid commissioning and fault finding.

The data badge is fitted on the bottom

of the combustion chamber.

See text of General Requirements for

Installation Requirements or notes.

BRITISH GAS PUBLICATION DM2:

Guide for Installation in Timber

Framed Housing

Important

The appliance must be installed and

serviced by a competent person as

stated in the Gas Safety (Installation

and Use) Regulations 1994

3.2 Boiler location

The location chosen for the boiler must

permit the provision of a satisfactory

flue termination. The location must

also provide adequate space for

servicing and air circulation around

the boiler. The boiler may be installed

in any room, although particular

attention is drawn to the requirements

of BS7671 (I.E.E. Regulations) and, in

Scotland, the electrical provisions of

the Building Standards (Scotland)

Regulations,in respect of the installation

of a boiler in a room containing a

bath or shower.

(Note: Where a room sealed boiler

is installed in a room containing a

bath or shower, any electrical switch

or boiler control utilising mains

electricity should be so situated that it

cannot be touched by a person using

the bath or shower).

Where the installation of the boiler

will be in an unusual location, special

procedures may be necessary and BS

5546 and BS 6798 give detailed

guidance on this aspect.

The boiler must be mounted on a flat,

vertical wall, which must be sufficiently

robust to take the weight of the boiler.

The boiler may be installed on a

combustible wall, subject to the

requirements of the Local Authorities

and Building Regulations.

A compartment used to enclose the

boiler must be designed and

constructed specifically for this

purpose. (An existing cupboard or

compartment may be used provided

that it is modified for the purpose).

Details of essential features of

cupboard/compartment design

including airing cupboard installations

are given in BS 6798.

If the boiler is to be fitted in a timber

framed building, it should be fitted in

accordancewith British Gas Publication

DM2 'Guide for Gas Installations in

Timber Framed Housing'.

Supplied By www.heating spares.co Tel. 0161 620 6677

3.3 Gas supply

The gas supplier should ensure the

availability of an adequate supply of

gas.

A gas meter may only be connected

to the service pipe by the supplier of

gas or their contractor.

An existing meter should be checked

to ensure that it is capable of passing

the rate of gas supply required.

Installation pipes should be fitted in

accordance with BS 6891.

Pipework from the meter to the boiler

must be of an adequate size. Do not

use pipes of a smaller size than the

boiler gas connection (15mm).

The complete installation must be

tested for soundness and purged as

described in BS 6891.

3.4 Flue system

The standard horizontal flue system

(Art. No. 300 807) is suitable for

installations up to 995 mm measured

from the centre of the boiler flue outlet

to the outside face of the wall (A, fig.

4). Flue extensions (Art. No. 300 802)

are available to extend this length up

to 2965 mm. Both 90° elbows

(Art. No. 300 808) and 45° bends

(Art. No. 300 809) are also available

to increase siting flexibility.

A vertical flue system is also available

(Art. No. 300 800).

TURBOmax boilers may also be used

in SE- duct applications (SE- duct flue

system available Art. No. 300810)

Refer to the flue installation instructions

for full details.

3.4.1 Flue Termination

1. The terminal must be positioned

such that the combustion products can

disperse freely at all times.

2. In certain weather conditions a

plume of water vapour may be visible

from the flue terminal. Positions where

this could be a nuisance should be

avoided.

3. If the terminal is fitted less than 2m

above a balcony, above ground or

above a flat roof to which people

have access, then a suitable guard

must be provided and fitted (available

from Tower Flue Components,

Tonbridge, TN9 1TB: reference TFC

type K3).

Table 1:

Terminal position for fan-assisted flue

fig. 5

GW 595/0

Where a terminal is fitted less than

1m below a plastic gutter or less than

0.5m below painted eaves or any

other painted surface then a suitable

shield at least 1m long should be

fitted to protect the surface.

Note: Vertical flues must not terminate

within 600 mm of an openable

window, air vent or any other

ventilation opening.

Supplied By www.heating spares.co Tel. 0161 620 6677

3.5 Air supply

Detailed recommendations for air

supply are given in BS 5440: Part 2.

It is not necessary to have an air vent

in the room or internal space in which

the boiler is installed.

3.5.1 Cupboard or compartment air

supply

TURBOmax Room Sealed Combination

Boilers are very high efficiency

appliances.

As a consequence the heat loss from

the appliance casing during operation

is very low. For cupboard and

compartment installations it is therefore

not necessary to provide any high or

low level permanent air vents for

cooling purposes.

3.6 Electricity supply

A 230 V~ 50Hz single phase

electricity supply fused to 3 amps must

be provided in accordance with the

latest edition of BS7671 (I.E.E. Wiring

Regulations) and any other local

regulations that may apply.

THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

The method of connection to the mains

electricity supply must provide a

means of completely isolating the

boiler and its ancillary controls.

Isolation is preferably by the use of a

fused three pin plug and unswitched

shuttered socket outlet, both complying

with the requirements of BS 1363.

Alternatively, a 3 Amp fused

double-pole switch with a 3mm

contact separation on both poles may

be used.

3.7 Guide to system

requirements

3.7.1 Water circulation system

Detailed recommendations for the

water circulation system are given in

BS 6798 and BS 5449: Part 1 (for

small bore and micro bore central

heating systems).

Pipework not forming part of the useful

heating surface should be insulated to

help prevent heat loss and possible

freezing, particularly where pipes are

run through roof spaces and ventilated

underfloor spaces.

Draining taps must be located in

accessible positions which permit the

draining of the whole system including

the boiler and the hot water system.

Draining taps should be at least 1/2

in. BSP nominal size and be in

accordance with BS 2879.

The boiler is suitable for use with

minibore or microbore systems.

Copper tubing to BS 2871: Part 1

should be used for water carrying

pipework. All capillary joints in the

DHW pipework must be made with

lead free solder.

Particularly where a new boiler is to

be fitted to an existing system, it is

good practice that the system is

thoroughly cleansed. This cleasing

should take place prior to the fitting of

the new boiler and be in accordance

with BS 7593.

For advice on the application of

system cleansers contact Sentinel,

Grace Dearborn Ltd, Widnes,

Cheshire, WA8 8UD.
