3.2 System start-up
Checks to be made at first ignition, and after all maintenance operations that involved disconnecting from
the systems or an intervention on safety devices or parts of the boiler:
Before lighting the boiler:
• Open any on-off valves between the boiler and the systems.
• Check the airtightness of the gas system, proceeding with caution and using a soap and water solution to detect
any leaks in connections.
• Check the pre-filling of the expansion tank (ref. sec.4.4)
• Fill the water system and make sure that all air contained in the boiler and the system has been vented by opening
the air vent valve on the boiler and any vent valves on the system.
• Make sure there are no water leaks in the system, hot water circuits, connections or boiler.
• Make sure the electrical system is properly connected and the earth system works properly.
• Make sure that the gas pressure is as required for heating.
• Make sure there are no flammable liquids or materials in the immediate vicinity of the boiler.
Checks during operation
• Ignite the appliance as described in chap. 1.3.
• Check the airtightness of the fuel circuit and water systems.
• Check the efficiency of the flue and fume ducts while the boiler is working.
• Check that the water is circulating properly between the boiler and the systems.
• Make sure that the gas valve modulates correctly in both the heating and hot water production phases.
• Check the proper ignition of the boiler by performing various tests, turning it on and off with the room thermostat
or remote control.
• Make sure that the fuel consumption indicated on the meter corresponds to that given in the technical data table
in chap. 4.
• Make sure that with no call for heating the burner correctly ignites on opening a hot water tap. Check that during
heating operation, on opening a hot water tap, the heating circulator stops and there is a regular production of
hot water.
• Check the parameters are programmed correctly and perform any required customization (compensation curve,
power, temperatures, etc.)
3.3 Maintenance
Seasonal inspection of the boiler and flue
To make sure that operating efficiency and safety are maintained over time, it is necessary to have the appliance
and system checked regularly by qualified personnel. For the frequency of these operations, scrupulously observe
the requirements of national and local regulations. In any case, it is advisable to carry out the following checks at
least once a year:
• The control and safety devices (gas valve, thermostats, etc.) must function correctly.
• The fume end piece and ducts must be free of obstructions and leaks.
• The gas and water systems must be airtight.
• The burner and exchanger must be clean and free of scale. When cleaning, do not use chemical products or wire
brushes.
• The electrode must be free of scale and properly positioned.
• The water pressure in the cold water system must be about 1-1.5 bar; otherwise, bring it to that value.
• The expansion tank must be filled.
• The gas flow and pressure must correspond to that given in the respective tables.
• The circulation pump must not be blocked.
• The expansion tank must be filled.
• The boiler casing, panel and aesthetic parts can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth, possibly soaked in soapy water.
Do not use any abrasive detergents and solvents.
