This manual is intended to guideengineers in the installation andmaintenance of Grant CONDENSINGOutdoor Wall Hung boilers. A UserGuide for the operation of this boiler isattached to the reverse of this manual.
The following special text formats areused in this manual for the purposeslisted below:
Warning of possible human injury asa consequence of not following theinstructions in the warning.
1.1 How a CondensingBoiler WorksDuring the combustion process,hydrogen and oxygen combine toproduce heat and water vapour. Thewater vapour produced is in the form ofsuperheated steam in the heatexchanger. This superheated steamcontains sensible heat (available heat)and latent heat (heat locked up in theflue gas). A conventional boiler cannotrecover any of the latent heat and thisenergy is lost to the atmospherethrough the flue.
The Grant CONDENSING Outdoor WallHung condensing boiler contains anextra heat exchanger which is designedto recover the latent heat normally lostby a conventional boiler. It does this bycooling the flue gases to below 90°C,thus extracting more sensible heat andsome of the latent heat. This is achievedby cooling the flue gases to their dewpoint (approximately 55°C).
To ensure maximum efficiency, the boilerreturn temperature should be 55°C orless, this will enable the latent heat to becondensed out of the flue gases.
The boiler will achieve net thermalefficiencies of 100%.
To achieve maximum performance fromthe Grant CONDENSING Outdoor WallHung boiler, it is recommended that theheating system is designed so that atemperature differential of 20°C betweenthe flow and return is maintained. Theuse of modulating circulating pumps(now widely available) and effectivecontrol systems should be considered.
The Grant Condensing boiler willhowever still operate at extremely highefficiencies even when it is not incondensing mode and therefore issuitable for fitting to an existing heatingsystem without alteration to the radiatorsizes. The boiler is capable of amaximum flow temperature of 75°C.
1.2 Boiler DescriptionThe Condensing Outdoor Modules havean insulated weatherproof enclosuremade of galvanised steel with a powdercoated finish, and are designed forexternal installation, Mounted on asuitable external wall.
The Grant CONDENSING Outdoormodules are part of the Grant range ofautomatic pressure jet oil boilers, andhave been designed for use with a fullypumped central heating system withindirect domestic hot water cylinder.They are not suitable for use with eithera direct cylinder or a 'primatic' cylinderor gravity hot water.
The boilers are suitable for use on openvented or sealed central heatingsystems. All models are supplied withthe control panel and burner factoryfitted.
The boilers are supplied with a flueterminal, but can be connected to aconventional flue system.
An external conventional flue (Green)system is available from. Refer toChapter 9 for further details includingthe list of available components of thissystem.
Caution concerning likely damage toequipment or tools as aconsequence of not following theinstructions in the caution.
The flue system materials andconstruction must be suitable foruse with oil-fired condensing boilers.Failure to fit a suitable conventionalflue may invalidate the warranty onthe boiler.

4 Boiler Installation Information4.1 IntroductionThe boiler is supplied already fullyassembled in a carton which is carefullypacked with packing materials. As theboiler is wall mounted all of the contentof the boiler casing must be removedwith the packaging before installationcan begin, to give access to the rearfixing panel. The installation proceduretherefore begins with unpacking anddismantling of the packed boiler.
4.2 Boiler LocationThe Module must be installed externally,fixed to an outdoor wall that is firm, flatand vertical. It does not require anyspecial base provisions as thetemperature of the boiler casing is lessthan 50°C.
The Module must be positioned suchthat the required clearances from thelow level flue outlet, as shown inFigure 9-3, are achieved.
Adequate clearance must be left aroundand in front of the Module for servicing.The Outdoor wall mounted boiler mustbe installed with the flue terminalterminating at least two metres aboveground level. (Refer to standard BS5410part 1). No terminal guard can be fittedif termination is less than two metresabove ground level. In this situation usethe Green flue system to achieve theminimum height. See Section 9.
The flue terminal must be a minimumdistance of 1.8m from an oil storagetank.
The flue terminal should be positionedso as to avoid products of combustionaccumulating in stagnant pocketsaround the building or entering intobuildings.
Once the outdoor boiler is fixedsufficient clearance must be allowed atthe front of and below the boiler toremove the burner and baffles forservicing.

6 Condensate Disposal6.1 General RequirementsWhen in condensing mode the GrantCondensing wall-hung boilers producecondensate from the water vapour in theflue gases. This condensate is slightlyacidic with a ph value of around 3(similar to vinegar). Provision must bemade for the safe and effective disposalof this condensate.
Condensate can be disposed of usingone of the following methods ofconnection:
Internal Connection (preferred option):• Into an internal domestic waste
system (from kitchen sink, washingmachine, etc.).
• Directly into the soil stack
External Connection:• Into an external soil stack
• Into an external drain or gulley
• Into a rainwater hopper (that is partof a combined system where sewercaries both rainwater and foul water)
• Purpose made soakaway
All condensate disposal pipes mustbe fitted with a trap - whether they areconnected internally or externally to adomestic waste system/soil stack or runexternally to a gully, hopper or soakaway.
6.2 ConnectionsConnections into a rainwater hopper,external drain or gulley should beterminated inside the hopper/drain/gulley below the grid level butabove the water level.
Condensate disposal pipes should notbe connected directly into rainwaterdownpipes or to waste/soil systemsconnected to septic tanks.
Condensate should not be dischargedinto ’grey water’ systems that re-usewater used in the home (not includingwater from toilets).
It should be noted that connection of acondensate pipe to the drain may besubject to local Building Controlrequirement.
6.3 PipeworkCondensate disposal pipework mustbe plastic (plastic waste or overflowpipe is suitable).
Copper or steel pipe is not suitableand must not be used.
6.5. Condensate SoakawayTo keep external pipework to a minimum,locate the soakaway as close as possibleto the boiler but ensure it is at least1 metre from building foundations andaway from other services, for example,gas, electricity, or other services.
The condensate pipe may be run aboveor below ground level and can entereither the top or side of the soakawaytube. Refer to Figure 6-1.
Ensure that the drainage holes in thesoakaway tube face away from thebuilding.
Backfill the soakaway tube and the holearound it with 10mm limestone chippings.
Only use a soakaway where the soil isporous and drains easily.
Any damage due to condensatebacking up into the boiler due to ahigh water table, in the case of asoakaway, or flooded drains whenthe condensate disposal is via agulley or soil stack, is not covered bythe Grant product warranty.
Do not use in clay soils or where thesoil is poorly drained.
Where it is not possible for the pipeto fall towards the point of discharge- either internally into a waste systemor externally to a gulley it will benecessary to use a condensate pump.
Condensate disposal pipes should bekept as short as possible and thenumber of bends kept to a minimum.
Pipes should be adequately fixed toprevent sagging, i.e. at no more than0.5 metre intervals.
6.4 External PipeworkIdeally, external pipework, or pipeworkin unheated areas, should be avoided. Ifunavoidable, external pipework shouldbe kept as short as possible (less than 3metres) and 32mm waste pipe used tominimise the risk of ice blocking thepipe in freezing conditions.
The number of bends, fittings and jointson external pipes should be kept to aminimum to reduce the risk of trappingcondensate.

6.7. Condensate DisposalPipeworkThe boiler is supplied with a flexibleplastic condense disposal pipe, factory-fitted to the outlet of the trap.
This flexible discharge pipe must berouted through the boiler to exit via oneof the pre-cut ‘knock-outs’ in thebottom flange of the boiler back panel -at the right rear of the bottom casing.
Push out the ‘knock-out’ from the holetaking care not to distort the back panelflange.
The outlet end of this flexible pipe willaccept 21.5mm OD to 23mm ODPolypropylene overflow pipe forconnection of the condensate dischargepipe below the boiler.
When connecting plastic dischargepipe, ensure that the pipe is fullypushed into the outlet end connectoron the flexible pipe to prevent thepossibility of leakage.
6.8 Inspection and Cleaningof TrapThe trap must be checked at regularintervals (e.g. on every annual service)and cleaned as necessary to ensurethat it is clear and able to operate.
6.6. Condensate Trap Grant Condensing Wall-hung boilers aresupplied with a factory-fitted condensatetrap to provide the required 75mm waterseal in the condensate discharge pipefrom the boiler.
This trap incorporates a float (which willcreate a seal when the trap is empty) andan overflow warning outlet (fitted with aplastic sealing cap), see Figure 6-2.
The trap is factory-fitted inside the boilercasing – mounted on the outlet of thecondensing heat exchanger - in anaccessible position to allow for routinemaintenance. See Figure 6-3.
A ‘push-fit’ elbow connects the outlet ofthe condensing heat exchanger to thetrap inlet. Ensure the elbow is fullypushed onto the ‘top hat’ inletconnector of the trap.
With the trap fitted inside the boilercasing, the sealing cap must be fitted.
Figure 6-2: Condensate trap
Figure 6-3: Condensate trap in-situ
The bottom bowl is sealed to the trapbody and cannot be removed.
To inspect and clean the trap
1. Leave inlet connector fitted toconnecting elbow.
2. Unscrew the inlet connection nut.
3. Separate trap from the ‘top hat’ inletconnector and nut.
4. Unscrew outlet connection nut,disconnect disposal pipe from trap.
5. Remove trap from boiler.
6. Remove float from trap – clean ifnecessary.
7. Inspect inside of trap and clean asnecessary.
8. Re-assemble trap, re-fit to boilerand re-connect inlet connection.Ensure that elbow is fully pushedonto the ‘top hat’ inlet connectorand disposal pipe is correctlyconnected to trap outlet.

8 Flue System and Air SupplyThe boiler is supplied with a flue terminal.Refer to Section 4.5 for fitting details.
As an alternative to the terminal suppliedthere are two external flue systems that canbe used with the Outdoor wall Hung boiler,both available from your local stockists:
• Grant Green System – This verticaltwin wall stainless steel insulatedsystem replaces the low levelterminal supplied with the boiler, andmay terminate at high level orvertically as required.
8.1 Air SupplyA sufficient permanent air supply to theboiler should be provided for propercombustion of fuel and effectivedischarge of combustion products tothe open air.
Grant module boilers draw their airsupply via the ventilation holes in thebottom of the boiler casing. These mustnot be obstructed.
Further details may be obtained fromBS 5410:1:1997.
8.2 Conventional Flue Systems
Grant condensing boilers have highoperating efficiencies and low flue gastemperatures. Care must be taken toensure the flue system is suitable for thevery low flue gas temperatures andcondensate in the flue gases.
The flue must terminate in a downdraught free area, i.e. at least 600mmabove the point of exit through the roofor preferably above the ridge level.
The condensate may be allowed to runback into the boiler. A condensate drain atthe base of the flue system is not required.
The high level flue terminal must be atleast 600mm from any opening into thebuilding, and 600mm above any verticalstructure or wall less than a horizontaldistance of 750mm from the terminal.
If an existing chimney is to be used, it mustbe lined with a smooth bore stainless steelliner suitable for use with oil firedcondensing boilers. The top and bottom ofthe annular space must be sealed.
The internal flue liner diameter for allmodels must be 100mm (4 in).
Grant recommends the use of the Grant'Orange' flue system components forthis application.
Twin-wall flues are recommended forexternally run flues to reduce thepossibility of the condensate freezing inthe flue.
No part of any flue system should bemade of an asbestos material;aluminium must not be used in any partof the flue. Only stainless steel fluecomponents should be used.
If the draught conditions aresatisfactory, the flue should terminatewith a standard cowl.
Refer to the locally applicable BuildingRegulations, BS 5410:1 and OFTECInstallation Requirements (OFTECBooks 2 and 3) for further guidance onconventional flue systems.
Under no circumstances can GrantCondensing boilers be installed withexisting flue systems. Only fluesystems and components suitable forwet flues should be used.
Failure to install the correct type of fluesystem will invalidate the warranty.
! NOTE
It is important to ensure that the fluesystem is sealed and that condensatecannot escape. Up to 1.5 l/h ofcondensate can be produced in aconventional flue system.
Do not use fire cement. The use of hightemperature silicone sealants isrecommended.
8.3 External Conventional Flue(Green System)The external system can terminate ateither high level or vertically (above rooflevel) as required. The vertical or high levelterminal must terminate in accordancewith BS 5410: Part 1. The minimumdimensions for locating the high levelterminal from building features (windows,doors, etc.) are shown in Figure 9-3.
The Green system comprises of fiveinsulated extension lengths, 45° elbows,a vertical terminal and a high levelhorizontal terminal. Locking bands areprovided with all vertical extensions andterminals. Ensure that the lockingbands are fitted.
Two types of wall bracket are alsoavailable (standard and adjustable) tosupport the vertical flue components.
The maximum vertical height (from the topof the boiler to the terminal) for the100mm diameter ‘Green’ system twin-wall flue is 8 metres. Only two 45° elbowsmay be used in the complete system.
If the flue terminal is fitted less than 2metres above a surface to which peoplehave access, the terminal must beprotected by a guard. The guard must bemanufactured from stainless steel andshould be fitted centrally over the flueterminal and securely fixed to the wall.
