Do not exceed the total equivalent venting length of 100 feet
(30,480 mm) (GB142-24/30/45) and 60 feet (18,288 mm)
(GB142-60) maximum requirement each for the intake and
exhaust piping.
See table 4 for the Friction Loss Equivalent in piping and
fittings.
Example:
When you end up using 3 x 45°-elbows and the concentric
vent kit, then the total venting length may not exceed 88 feet
(26.82 m) (GB142-24/30/45) or 48 feet (14.63 m)
(GB142-60).
3 x 45°-elbow = 3 x 3 ft (0.91 m) = 9 ft (2.73 m)
concentric vent kit = 3 ft (0.91 m)
Total friction loss equivalent = 12 ft (3.66 m)
Total venting length for this example is:
GB142-24/30/45 = 100 ft (30.48 m) - 12 ft (3.66 m) =
88 feet (26.82 m)
GB142-60 = 60 ft (18.29 m) - 12 ft (3.66 m) =

9.1 Testing for gas leaks
Prior to start-up of the boiler you must check the external
tightness of the gas supply valve and confirm this in the
start-up report.
z Disconnect the heating system from the power supply.
z Check the exterior tightness of new conduit sections up
to and including the direct sealing point on the gas burner
fitting. The maximum test pressure allowed on the input
of the gas burner fitting is 14 inch W.C. (35 mbar).
9.2 Filling the boiler
Set the main switch to "1". P0.0 appears in the display of the
BC10 telling you that there is no system pressure.
z Fill the heating system to a pressure of around 20 psi
(1.5 bar).
z Observe the pressure on the BC10 or the P/T gauge in
the pump manifold for the heating circuit. The fill pres-
sure of the system should be at least the required inlet
pressure for the expansion tank plus 7.2 psi (0.5 bar).
The minimum pressure is 15 psi (1.0 bar) (on a cold
system). The maximum pressure is 44 psi (3.0 bar) (if the
heating medium temperature is at its highest possible
level). If this pressure is exceeded, the pressure relief
valve will open.
WARNING
– Cover endangered positions before leak
testing.
– Do not spray the leak testing agent onto
cables, plugs or electrical connection lines.
Do not allow it to drip onto them either.
DANGER
Leaks may be caused to pipes and screw
connections during commissioning and mainte-
nance activities.
– Carry out a proper leak test.
– Only use approved leak detection agents for
leak detection.
NOTICE
Observe the space heating water requirements
as described in paragraph 1.4 on page 6.
NOTICE
If a relief valve discharges periodically, this may
be due to thermal expansion in a closed water
supply system. Contact the water supplier or
local plumbing inspector on how to correct the
situation. Never plug the relief valve.

For first time start up it is necessary to set the DHW temper-
ature knob and the space heating water temperature knob
to the desired setting (see subsection 10.3.2 and 10.3.3).
Factory setting is "0".
9.3 Filling the condensate trap
z Make sure that you fill the condensate trap with water.
This is to prevent exhaust gases from entering the room.
z Remove the condensate trap (see fig. 32).
z Fill with water and refit the condensate trap in reverse
order.
9.4 Bleeding the gas supply valve
z Loosen the screw plug on the testing nipple for the gas
connection and venting (fig. 33, pos. 1) by two turns and
fit a hose.
z Slowly open the gas shut-off valve.
z Run the gas that is discharged through a water bath.
z Close the gas shut-off valve when no more air is
released.
z Remove the hose and tighten the screw plug again.
9.5 Checking the combustion air/flue gas
connection
Check the following points:
– Is the prescribed combustion air/flue system used?
– Have the instructions for configuring the flue system as
specified in the relevant Installation instruction for the flue
gas system been observed?

z Slowly open the gas shut-off valve.
The boiler and its individual shutoff valve must be discon-
nected from the gas supply piping system during any pres-
sure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of
½ psi (3.5 kPa).
The boiler must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
z Briefly press on the control panel cover to open it.
