SYSTEM NO. 2 - CONDENSATE PUMP IMPORTANT Firebird condensing boilers when in condensing mode extract more heat from the flue products and the resulting condensate which is mildly acidic needs to be drained from the boiler via a condensate pipe to the drainage system.
A heat protection shield should be fitted if the terminal is less than 850mm from a plastic or painted gutter or less than 450mm from painted eaves. FIREBIRD RECOMMENDS AS PER OFTEC RECOMMENDATIONS THAT THE FLUE SHOULD BE A MINIMUM DISTANCE OF 1 METRE FROM OPENINGS SO THAT IT DOES NOT CAUSE A NUISANCE AND PERMITS THE DISPERSAL OF COMBUSTION PRODUCTS.
