Self-installation of a gas boiler wall

Qualitatively executed installation of wallgas boiler allows to solve such problems of engineering maintenance of the house as heating, and in the case of a double-circuit boiler - also hot water supply. And the procedure for installing boiler equipment is not a difficult and difficult task and can be performed independently.

Stages of installation of a wall gas boiler

1. The installation of a gas boiler starts with the determination ofplace of its location. The best option is to select a section of the wall where access to the boiler will not be difficult when carrying out preventive works. Also, it should be borne in mind that a chimney will come to the boiler to remove the combustion products.
2. After the place for the boiler is determined,make a hole for the chimney through the wall or roof. It should be of sufficient diameter to provide natural draft. If the boiler is operated through a forced draft chimney, the hole must have a diameter corresponding to the size of the forced draft chimney.
3. Next, a gas boiler is installed on theWall by means of anchor bolts or hooks. After the suspension of the boiler equipment, the assembly stage of the hood begins. Most often the hood is assembled from straight and angled modules. After the installation of the chimney, the hole in the wall is sealed with foam.
4. After the installation of the gas boiler and extractor hoodsthe stage of its connection to the heating circuit begins. If the boiler is a two-circuit, then immediately connects to the mains of cold and hot water supply. When connecting to a cold water supply system and a return line, it is recommended to install water purification filters to prevent dirt from entering the boiler. It is also recommended to install shut-off valves, so that you can turn off the water for preventive and repair work.
5. At this step, you must connect the boiler to the gas supply system.
6. If the boiler is volatile, thenconnection of an emergency operation system or an uninterruptible power supply to electricity. After that, the plug of the gas boiler is connected to an uninterruptible power supply or battery.
7. The last stage of installation of a gas boiler istesting the work of both the boiler itself and the entire heating and water supply system as a whole. First the heating circuit is filled with water through the return line, the cold water inlet valve opens into the second heat exchanger for hot water supply, the hot water tap opens. After the system is filled with water, the boiler switches on. Then, its work on heating the water in the heating circuit and hot water supply system is checked, all pipes and connections are inspected for the presence of streaks. If everything works properly, the installation of the gas boiler has been successfully completed. You can safely use the device.

As can be seen from the above material,installation of wall-mounted gas boilers is a fairly simple task that can be performed independently. But if there is no self-confidence, then this procedure is better to entrust to professionals.
