Points to watch during use
- Clean the outer surfaces with warm water and soap, never with sharp tools or chemicals.
- Do not open the doors while the fire is burning, and do not leave them open.
- Do not load fuel into the boiler in sacks or bags that melt; they damage the moving grate mechanism.
- Make sure the fuel is clean, and do not use wet or damp coal.
- Never run the boiler on an installation with a closed expansion tank, and warn your installer.
- Fill the boiler with water only while it is cold.
- Let the hose run to waste for a while before filling; air inside the hose damages the system.
- Keep the user manual; following it extends both the efficiency and the life of the boiler.
- Do not change the settings made by the authorised service when it handed the boiler over in working order, without telling the service team.
- Once the unit has been connected according to the instructions and the system has been filled with water, the installer must contact the nearest authorised Yağmur Teknik service to request commissioning.
- Buy your fuel before you call the service team for commissioning.
- Do not bleed the system while the pump is running.
Fuel
The quality of your fuel has a direct effect on boiler efficiency, combustion quality, ash volume, cleaning intervals and how much fuel you burn. Test a sample before you buy. Coal with a very high calorific value can damage cast iron and steel parts. Do not use coal dust, wet coal or coke.
Installation information
- The unit must not be installed where it can come into contact with water or in very damp places.
- If the unit is installed outdoors, for example in a garden, it must be sheltered from rain and sun.
- The unit must be installed somewhere it can draw enough air for proper combustion.
- It must be installed so that it can be operated and serviced easily.
- The installer must follow every instruction and warning in the manual; otherwise the installer is responsible for any problems that arise.
- Pipework, hot water lines and flue connections that run outdoors must always be insulated.
- The flue is one of the most important parts of the system; without a good flue there is no good combustion and no efficiency.
- Pipework must start at the outlet size of the unit and reduce gradually, and must not drop below 3/4″ before the last radiator group.
- Radiator flow and return connections must be made diagonally, and every radiator group needs a bleed valve.
- An expansion tank sized for the capacity must be fitted at the highest point of the system.
- Fit ball valves on the flow and return lines, and mount the circulation pump on the flow or return line so that it pumps towards the boiler.
- Flue connections must be gas-tight, made to the outlet dimensions of the unit, and the flue cross-section must not be reduced.
- An earth connection is essential, and the unit must not be exposed to voltage fluctuations.
- Indoor installations need a ventilation opening; the boiler must sit level on a flat floor, and in central systems on a plinth at least 25 cm high.
- The safety pipes between the boiler and the expansion tank must never carry valves, check valves or filters.
Closed expansion systems are not covered by the warranty. Systems fitted with a closed expansion tank are never covered by the warranty, and Yağmur Teknik cannot be held responsible for problems arising from them. The manufacturer also accepts no responsibility for damage caused by electrical or earthing connections that do not follow the rules.
