(although not applicable to the Republic of Ireland). Warmflow oil fired boilers are designed to burn 28 second redwood No 1 (Kerosene Class C2) fuel or with some adjustment 35 second redwood No 1 (Gas Oil Class D). In order to comply with current building regulations only kerosene must be burned when used with low level flue or low level balanced flue.
— — The Kabin Pak comes factory fitted with a Warmflow Bluebird Boiler and insulated low level flue kit complete with a terminal guard. An adaptor is available to allow the low level flue to be extended using standard twin wall round flue.

In areas of hard water a suitable water softener would also be recommended. Sealed Systems All Warmflow boilers are suitable for use on a sealed heating system. It is recommended that a CE approved pressure relief valve (PRV) set at 3 bar is fitted to the system. The industrial bluebirds can be fitted with a 4 bar PRV.
Air Vents On the system boiler an automatic air vent complete with its own check valve is fitted to the top of the boiler heat exchanger. It is recommended that an air vent is fitted at the highest point in the system. However where the pipework comes off the boiler and drops down an automatic airvent should be fitted to the top of the boiler.
Electricity Supply 220 – 240V. 1PH, 50 Hz The boiler/burner and other external electrical equipment should be wired with heat resistant cable via a fused double pole isolating switch which should be fitted with a 5 amp fuse. The appliance must be effectively earthed and all external wiring should comply with current IEE Regulations.

Flues Conventional Flues The flue should be designed in accordance with the local bye-laws and the Clean Air Act. Draught stabilisers are not recommended for oil fired boilers. Sharp bends or horizontal runs should be avoided and the flue should terminate 2 feet (600mm) above the ridge of the dwelling.

8.3.1 Installation of a Flue (BF-R, HLBF-R, VBF) Make a suitable sized hole in the wall or ceiling for the flue kit. Add the dimensions given on pages 7 (Dimension G) and 10 (Flue Vertical Dimension). The cavities around the opening must be sealed and protected by a non-combustable sleeve. Remove the top panel (kitchen and utility models) and the combustion chamber lid.
8.3.2 Installation of High Level Balanced Flue (HLBF) Installation instructions as per the balanced flue except there are no seals involved as the flue is not telescopic. There are no extension pieces available for these units and only 2 rearward facing options are recommended for the 90/120 range of boilers.

Kabin Pak Installations Although the Standard and Slimline Kabin Paks are manufactured from galvanised steel, it is recommended that after a period of weathering (approx 4-8 weeks) that the Kabin Pak is painted with a suitable primer and finish coat to prevent corrosion. When using the Kabin Paks with the integral low level flue only 28 second redwood number 1 (kerosine) may be used in order to comply with building regulations.
Fitting a Standard Kabin Pak Vertical Flue Adaptor Remove the 2 screws connecting the flue main body to the Kabin Pak and lift off. It may be necessary to break the seal between the flue main body and the top of the flue pipe.
Fitting a Slimline Kabin Pak Vertical Flue Adaptor Remove the flue terminal (4 screws) and fit the adaptor as shown (4 screws). FLUE TERMINAL VERTICAL FLUE ADAPTOR Note: Where there is a possibility of air being trapped in the boiler the installer must ensure that the automatic air vent is fitted to the boiler.
10.0 Oil Supply Oil Tank Steel tanks constructed to BS 799 Part 5 1987 should be painted on the outside only and mounted on piers to prevent corrosion. Plastic oil tanks are also available and can be suitable for installation at ground level. However, kerosine should never be stored in translucent plastic containers.
