Water treatment | 13 3 Water treatment The quality of the fill and top-up water is an essential factor for increased efficiency, functional reliability, long service life and for maintaining the constant operational condition of a heating system. If the system is filled with water that has a high calcium hardness, this will be deposited on the heat exchanger surfaces and will obstruct the transfer of heat to the heating water.
| Water treatment of only 1 mm can cause severe overheating in metal parts and consequent damage through thermal stress. It is continuous topping up (automatic fill from incoming water) that causes thick deposits to form, leading to boiler breakdown. • ensure that no part of the system is made from materials that are permeable to gases (e.g. plastic pipes with no oxygen barrier used in floor heating systems).
Transport | 15 • CO2 (carbon dioxide) is generated as the carbonates of calcium and magnesium precipitate out. • the chemical oxidation of the metals in the system also generates hydrogen. 4 WARNING: Risk of injury from carrying heavy loads and inadequately securing loads for transport. ▶ Use suitable means of transportation, e.g. several pallet trucks, a forklift truck, crane or heavy duty rollers. ▶ Secure the load against falling. These gases must be eliminated as they are formed.

Burners Installing the burner Follow the burner manufacturer’s instructions when fitting the burner. A pre-drilled burner plate is included with the boiler vessel.
Installation | 23 5.5 Combustion gas exhaust The flue gas exhaust and stack connection must be made in compliance with applicable laws and standards, using heat resistant, condensate resistant and stress resistant rigid pipe and sealed joints. The stack must be fitted with a condensate trap and drain and the flue gas exhaust pipe must be installed at a slope of at least 2° towards the boiler. All condensate should be treated through a neutralization media before being eliminated to the floor drain.
| Installation Polypropylene Venting (Model SB625WS Series Boilers only) The Model SB625WS Series Boilers may utilize an exhaust vent installed vertically through the roof or in a chimney chase. The configuration may be up to a maximum of 100 equivalent feet of venting. One 87 or 45 degree elbow is equivalent to 5 or 2.5 feet of venting, respectively. The chimney cap is equivalent to 3 feet of venting.
Installation | 25 5.9 Combustion Air from an adjacent room 5.11.2 Neutralizing the condensate Where combustion air is to be used from within the building, air must be provided into the equipment room through two permanent openings into the inferior building. Each opening must have a minimum free area of 1 square inch for each 1,000 Btuh of the total input rating of all fuel burning equipment in the space.
| Commissioning 6 ▶ Maintain the minimum differential between the selected shutdown temperature of the high limit safety cut-out, the temperature regulator, the maximum boiler water temperature and the maximum temperature demand ( table 13). Commissioning NOTICE: Risk of boiler damage through contaminated combustion air. ▶ Never operate the boiler in very dusty conditions, e.g. if building work is taking place in the installation room. ▶ Ensure adequate ventilation.

Glossary | 47 12 Glossary Appearance The appearance of water depends on the presence of sediment, in suspension or in colloidal form, and on the presence of dissolved substances that create easily identifiable conditions like turbidity, colouration or foaming. These substances can lead to limescale, sludge, corrosion, abrasion, microbial growth and foaming.
| Glossary Checks As is the case with checks for water parameters, it is the responsibility of the system operator to ensure that any water treatment systems are functioning properly, in compliance with instructions and at the specified intervals. The supplier’s responsibility ends with the supply and commissioning of the right conditioning system for achieving and maintaining the required water parameters.
