There are two distinct cases:
the flame does NOT appear Flames appear
Check:
- combustion chamber position and cleanliness.
- if the heating element is working.
- room temperature (if lower than 3°C use a firelighter) and
damp.
Try to light with a firelighter.
5) Power failure
Check the electrical connection and for voltage drops.
6) Termoc broken (this trips if the thermocouple fails or is disconnected).
Check connection between the thermocouple and the circuit board. Check operation with cold tests.
7) Over temp (shutdown due to excessive smoke temperature).
Excessive smoke temperature may be caused by: the type of pellet, smoke extraction fault, blocked duct, incorrect installation,
or gearmotor "drift".
8) H2O Alarm (this trips if the water temperature detector reads a temperature of above 90°C).
Excessive temperature may be caused by:
undersized system: have the DEALER enable the ECO function.
clogging: clean heat exchange pipes, the combustion chamber and smoke outlet.
9) No Depression (this trips if the flow sensor detects insufficient combustion air flow).
The flow may be insufficient because the door is open, the door does not close properly (e.g. bad seal), there is an air intake or
smoke extraction problem, the combustion chamber is clogged, or the flow sensor is dirty (clean with dry air).
Check the flow sensor threshold among the parameters (for the DEALER).
The low pressure alarm may also occur during ignition.
Pellets may NOT fall into the combustion chamber for the following reasons:
• There are no pellets: fill the hopper.
• The screw feeder is empty: fill the screw feeder by pressing the + and - keys together.
• Some pellets have jammed in the hopper: empty the pellet hopper with a vacuum cleaner.
• The gearmotor has broken down.
• The screw feeder safety thermostat has "disconnected" the electricity power supply from the gearmotor: make sure there is
no overheating. Check using a volt-ohm-milliammeter or fit a temporary jumper.
• The excess water temperature safety thermostat has "disconnected" the electricity power supply from the gearmotor:
check if there is water in the stove. Press the button behind the stove to reset.
It is essential to contact a DEALER before starting up again.
The answers shown here summarize the information found in these specifications.
1) What fittings do I need in order to install Idrotech?
Smoke outlet of at least 80 mm in diameter.
Air intake in the room of at least 80 cm2.
¾" G manifold outlet and inlet.
¾" G outlet to drain for overpressure valve.
Coupling for ¾" G filling line.
Connection to an electrical system compliant with standards, with a 230 V +/- 10% 50 Hz thermal-magnetic circuit breaker.
Refer to page 22 for dimensions. Read the installation safety information on page 25.
2) Can I use the stove without water?
NO. Use without water damages the stove.
3) Does the Idrotech stove give out hot air?
NO. All the heat goes where it is needed: to the water. Part of the heat produced is radiated into the room. You are advised to fit
heat emitting units (radiators) in the room.
4) Can I connect the stove inlet and outlet directly to a heat emitting unit (radiator)?
NO, like all other water heaters, they must be connected to a manifold from which the water is distributed to the heat emitting
units.
Flames appear, but after the word "Start", the
message "Start Faile appear
Check: (for the DEALER)
- if the thermocouple is working.
- start-up temperature setting in the parameters.
