How to Install a Hounsfield 12/19 Internal Wall Mounted Boiler – Quick Installation Guide
Unpacking the Boiler
Remove:
- front cover – loosen four retaining screws
- burner assembly
- heat exchanger assembly
Mounting the Wall Plate
Wall plate fitting kit includes a 10mm masonry drill and seven Rawl plugs.
Electrical Connection
OPTION: A control panel with an integral frost thermostat for garage installations. Pt. No. EL20008
Fitting the Heat Exchanger
Condensate Drainage
OPTION: Condensate soak away kit including lime stone chippings (Pt.no. RP024)
RECOMMENDATION: Seal condensate pipe work with Rectorseal Tru-blu, a non-setting sealant that doesn’t that doesn’t dry out like glue and remains easy to dismantle, it’s also suitable for oil line connections.
Fuel Supply
IMPORTANT: Tuscan boilers utilise a single pipe suction lift fuel supply system; it’s essential to keep the number of joints between the oil tank and the burner to a minimum, use pipe benders rather than fittings.
Note: One of the advantages of the ELCO and pump configuration we use is that unlike a Riello burner where sometimes a deaerator like a Tigerloop is essential they are absolutey not required with a Tuscan Boiler; they will of course act as a ‘plaster’ masking faults with the fuel supply system. Better to resolve the problem; deaerator’s have their own inherent problems.
Regulations
IMPORTANT: Boiler installation must comply with Building Regulations, associated E.N./ British Standards and industry good practice. Installation of a magnetic system filter forms part of this compliance.
