 Propane Building Regulations and the Benchmark Commissioning
Checklist
Potterton Promax Combi 24 HE Plus LPG
G.C.No 47 393 24
Building Regulations (England & Wales) require notification of
the installation of a heating appliance to the relevant Local
Authority Building Control Department. From 1 April 2005 this
can be achieved via a Competent Persons Self Certification
Scheme as an option to notifying the Local Authority directly.
Similar arrangements will follow for Scotland and will apply in
Northern Ireland from 1 January 2006.

CORGI operate a Self Certification Scheme for gas heating

appliances.

These arrangements represent a change from the situation

whereby compliance with Building Regulations was accepted as
being demonstrated by completion of the Benchmark Logbook
(which was then left on site with the customer).

With the introduction of Self Certification Schemes, the

Benchmark Logbook is being withdrawn. However, a similar
document in the form of a commissioning checklist and service
interval record is incorporated at the back of these instructions.

This company is a member of the Benchmark initiative and fully

supports the aims of the programme. Its aim is to improve the
standards of installation and commissioning of central heating
systems in the UK and to encourage the regular servicing of all
central heating systems to ensure safety and efficiency.

Building Regulations require that installations should comply

with manufacturer's instructions. It is therefore important that
the commissioning checklist is completed by the installer. The
relevant section of Building Regulations only relates to
dwellings. Therefore the checklist only applies if the appliance is
being installed in a dwelling or some related structure.

 Safe Manual Handling

General

The following advice should be adhered to, from when first handling the boiler to the final stages of installation, and also during maintenance.

Most injuries as a result of inappropriate handling and lifting are to the back, but all other parts of the body are vulnerable, particularly shoulders, arms and hands.
Health & Safety is the responsibility of EVERYONE.

There is no ‘safe’ limit for one man - each person has different capabilities. The boiler should be handled and lifted by TWO PEOPLE.

Do not handle or lift unless you feel physically able.

Wear appropriate Personal Protection Equipment e.g. protective gloves, safety footwear etc.

Preparation

Co-ordinate movements - know where, and when, you are both going.

Minimise the number of times needed to move the boiler - plan ahead.

Always ensure when handling or lifting the route is clear and unobstructed. If possible avoid steps, wet or slippery surfaces, unlit areas etc. and take special care
on ladders/into lofts.

Technique

When handling or lifting always use safe techniques - keep your back straight, bend your knees. Don’t twist - move your feet, avoid bending forwards and
sideways and keep the load as close to your body as possible.

Where possible transport the boiler using a sack truck or other suitable trolley.

Always grip the boiler firmly, and before lifting feel where the weight is concentrated to establish the centre of gravity, repositioning yourself as necessary. See the
‘Installation’ section of these instructions for recommended lift points.

Remember

The circumstances of each installation are different. Always asses the risks associated with handling and lifting according to the individual conditions.

If at any time when installing the boiler you feel that you may have injured yourself STOP !!
DO NOT ‘work through’ the pain - you may cause further injury.

IF IN ANY DOUBT DO NOT HANDLE OR LIFT THE BOILER - OBTAIN ADVICE OR ASSISTANCE BEFORE PROCEEDING !!

 6.0 System Details

6.1 Information

1. The Promax Combi Condensing Combination Boiler is a

‘Water Byelaws Scheme - Approved Product’.
To comply with the Water Byelaws your attention is drawn to
the following installation requirements and notes (IRN).
a) IRN 001 - See text of entry for installation
requirements and notes.
b) IRN 302 - Byelaw 14.
2. Reference to the WRc publications, ‘Water fittings and
materials directory’ and ‘Water supply byelaws guide’ give full
details of byelaws and the IRNs.

6.2 Central Heating Circuit

1. The appliance is suitable for fully pumped SEALED SYSTEMS

ONLY.

Treatment of Water Circulating Systems

• All recirculatory water systems will be subject to
corrosion unless an appropriate water treatment is
applied. This means that the efficiency of the system will
deteriorate as corrosion sludge accumulates within the system,
risking damage to pump and valves, boiler noise and circulation
problems.

• When fitting new systems flux will be evident within the system,
which can lead to damage of system components.

• All systems must be thoroughly drained and flushed out. Using,

for example Betz-Dearborn Sentinel X300 or X400 or Fernox
Superfloc Universal Cleanser. They should be used following the
flushing agent manufacturer’s instructions.

• System additives - corrosion inhibitors and flushing

agents/descalers should comply to BS7593 requirements, e.g.
Betz-Dearborn Sentinel X100 and Fernox-Copal which should be
used following the inhibitor manufacturer’s instructions.

Failure to flush and add inhibitor to the system will

invalidate the appliance warranty.

• It is important to check the inhibitor concentration after

installation, system modification and at every service in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. (Test kits are
available from inhibitor stockists.)

• For information or advice regarding any of the above contact

Technical Enquiries.

6.3 Bypass

1. The boiler is fitted with an automatic integral bypass.

6.4 System Control

1. The boiler is designed for use in a heating system that

incorporates external controls, i.e. a minimum of a timer
device.

2. Suitable timer kits are available as optional extras.

3. For optimum operating conditions and maximum economy

the fitting of a programmable room thermostat is
recommended.

Water Regulations Guide.
for IE: the current edition of I.S. 813 “Domestic Gas
Installations”.

Filling Loop 5. The sealed primary circuits may be filled or replenished by

means of a temporary connection between the circuit and a
supply pipe, provided a ‘Listed’ double check valve or some
other no less effective backflow prevention device is
permanently connected at the inlet to the circuit and the
temporary connection is removed after use.

Fig. 5
6.6 Expansion Vessel (Central Heating only)

1. The appliance expansion vessel is pre-charged to 0.5 bar.

The vessel is suitable for correct operation for system
capacities up to 125 litres. For greater system capacities an
additional expansion vessel must be fitted. For GB refer to BS
7074 Pt 1. For IE, the current edition of I.S. 813 “Domestic
Gas Installations”.

6.7 Pressure Relief Valve (Fig. 6)

1. The pressure relief valve is set at 3 bar, therefore all

pipework, fittings, etc. should be suitable for pressures in
excess of 3 bar and temperature in excess of 100°C.

2. The pressure relief discharge pipe should be not less than

15mm dia, run continuously downward, and discharge outside
the building, preferably over a drain. It should be routed in
such a manner that no hazard occurs to occupants or causes
damage to wiring or electrical components. The end of the
pipe should terminate facing down and towards the wall.

3. The discharge must not be above a window, entrance or

other public access. Consideration must be given to the
possibility that boiling water/steam could discharge from the
pipe.

treatment device) then an expansion vessel must be fitted
(eg. Zilmet 160ml, R1/2 15bar).

5. If the hot water expansion is not provided for, then high

pressures can develop which may result in damage to fittings
and devices on the system.
Fig. 7

6. The boiler’s maximum working mains pressure is 8 bar,

therefore all pipework, connections, fittings, etc. should be
suitable for pressures in excess of 8 bar. A pressure reducing
valve must be fitted for pressures in excess of 8 bar. The
manufacturer of any outlet fittings, such as a shower valve,
may require a lower maximum pressure. The pressure
reduction must take account of all fittings connected to the
DHW system.

6.9 Showers

1. If a shower control is supplied from the appliance it

should be of the thermostatic or pressure balanced type.
Thermostatic type shower valves provide the best comfort
and guard against water at too high a temperature. Existing
controls may not be suitable - refer to the shower valve
manufacturer.

6.10 Hard Water Areas

1. If the area of the installation is recognised as a HARD

WATER AREA then a suitable device should be fitted to
treat the mains water supply to the boiler. Contact your
Water Distribution Company for advice on suitable devices.

Min. 2 metres above ground level (Fig. 28).

3. Measure and cut to size the concentric assembly and any

extensions that are being used.

4. Insert the concentric assembly through the hole from

outside the building.

5. If required, the flexible flue trim should be fitted prior to

this as it cannot be fitted after. Use the large ‘Jubilee’ clip to
Fig. 28 secure the trim to the flue (See Fig. 29, trim shown
dotted), with the screw part of the clip at the bottom.

6. Connect any extensions or elbows that are being used

to the concentric assembly. Engage the extension, elbow
Flue Trim or concentric assembly in the boiler flue elbow. Fit the
boiler flue elbow to the boiler adaptor.

7. Ensure that the concentric assembly and any extensions

fall back to the boiler at an angle of at least1.5° and that
the external air inlet is to the bottom.

8. Use suitable brackets to support the concentric

assembly and any extensions, and make good inside and
Spigot outside.

13 .1 Annual Servicing

Case Front Panel 1. For reasons of safety and economy, it is recommended that
the boiler is serviced annually. Servicing must be performed by
a competent person in accordance with B.S. 7967-4:2007.

If a suitably calibrated combustion analyser is available it

may not be necessary to perform a full strip down of the
appliance. Proceed as follows.
Check for/inspect:-
Evidence of leakage of products of combustion
Water leaks
Heat stress
Deterioration such as corrosion
Visible condition of seals and joints
Flue system and ventilation
Condensate drain system
Operation at designed maximum heat input
Fig. 69
If the above are satisfactory perform a combustion check
The CO/CO2 ratio must be less than 0.004 and the CO2

should be 10% ± 0.2 (max. rate) and 9.5% ± 0.2 (min.
Screws
rate). This can be adjusted - see Section 15.0 - if the
readings are incorrect. When correct combustion
readings cannot be achieved by adjustment a full strip
down must be performed - see below. Carefully check
items such as the burner, injector and heat exchanger
for blockage or damage, rectifying as necessary. Re-
check the combustion. Once satisfactory readings have
been achieved and any other defects corrected complete
the relevant Service Interval Record section of the
Benchmark Commissioning Checklist at the rear of this
publication.

Where no suitable analyser is available a strip down

service must be performed as described below.

2. After servicing, complete the relevant Service Interval

Record section of the Benchmark Commissioning Checklist at
the rear of this publication.

If a full strip-down is to be performed proceed as follows:-

3. Ensure that the boiler is cool.

4. Ensure that both the gas and electrical supplies to the

boiler are isolated.

selector switch fully anticlockwise against
the spring pressure to the reset position
2. Electrical supply = 230V ~ 50 Hz.
and hold for 5 seconds to reset the
boiler.
3. CH water system pressurised to 0.5 bar minimum when
the boiler is cold.

4. The preferred minimum gas pressure is 37 mbar.

5. Carry out electrical system checks, i.e. Earth Continuity,

Resistance to Earth, Short Circuit and Polarity with a suitable
meter.

NOTE: These checks must be repeated after any

servicing or fault finding.

6. Ensure all external controls are calling for heat and check
all external and internal fuses. Before any servicing or
replacement of parts, ensure the gas and electrical supplies
are isolated.

18.2 Error Codes

1. If a fault occurs on the boiler an error code may be shown

by the facia display.

2. The codes are either two or three digit, preceded by the

Table Of Error Codes letter 'E'. For example, code E133 will be displayed by 'E1'
alternating with '33'. E50 is shown as 'E' then '50'
E20 Central Heating NTC Fault
E28 Flue NTC Fault E20, E28 & E50 indicate faulty or incorrect components.
E50 Hot Water NTC Fault
E110 Safety Thermostat Operated E110 shows overheat of the primary water and E130
E119 Water Pressure Switch Not Operated overheat of the flue system.
E125 Circulation Fault (Primary Circuit)
E119 is displayed when the primary water pressure is less
E130 Flue NTC Operated than 0.5 bar.
E133 Interruption Of Gas Supply or Flame Failure
E160 Fan or Fan Wiring Fault E133 indicates that the gas supply has been interrupted,
E193 Pre-Circulation Fault ignition has failed or the flame has not been detected.

E125 is displayed in either of two situations:-

i) If within 15 seconds of the burner lighting the boiler
temperature has not changed by 1°.
ii) If within 10 minutes of the burner lighting the boiler
temperature twice exceeds the selected temperature by 30°.
In these instances poor primary circulation is indicated.

3. By turning the selector switch to the 'Reset' position for a

minimum of 5 seconds when E110, E130 & E133 are
displayed it is possible to relight the boiler.

4. If this does not have any effect, or the codes are displayed
regularly further investigation is required.
