3.4 Installation site

The location chosen for the boiler must permit the provi-

sion of a satisfactory flue termination. The location must

also provide adequate space for servicing and air circu-

lation around the boiler. The boiler may be installed in

any room, although particular attention is drawn to the

requirements of BS 7671 (IEE Regulations), the electrical

provisions of the Building Standards (Scotland)

Regulations, and in IE the current edition of IS 813 and

the current ETCI rules, in respect of the installation of a

boiler in a room containing a bath or shower.

Note

If a room sealed boiler is installed in a room

with a bath or shower, electrical switches or

boiler controls using the mains power supply

must be placed at locations that cannot be

reached by the person in the bath or shower.

If the boiler is installed 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 suffi-

ciently 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 pro-

vided 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 accordance with Institute

of Gas Engineers Publication IGE/UP/7/1998 “Guide for

Gas Installation in Timber Framed Housing”.

Please note the safety instructions below before decid-

ing where to install the boiler:

Caution!

Do not install the appliance in rooms prone to

frost. In rooms with aggressive steam or dust,

the appliance must be operated independent of

the ambient air.

When choosing the place of installation and while oper-

ating the appliance, make sure that the air supply is free

of chemical substances containing fluorine, chlorine, sul-

phur etc. Sprays, solvents and cleaning agents, paints,

adhesives etc. contain the kind of substances that can

lead to corrosion even in the exhaust system when the

appliance is operated depending on the ambient air in

the worst case scenario. Particularly in hair-cutting

salons, lacquering and finishing, cleaning facilities, the

appliance must be operated independent of the ambient

air! Otherwise, a separate installation room is required

to guarantee that the air supply is free of the above

mentioned substances.
