If outside-temperature controlled programmer (TA...) is connected to boiler:


• The anti-cycle time is adjusted by the programmer to the suit the system.
• The factory setting for the anti-cycle time (3 min.) and the heating mode hysteresis setting, if applica-
ble, are deactivated.
• In cyclic mode, the switching of the boiler on or off is subject to a time delay in order to prevent diver-
gence between the average CH flow temperature and the specified CH flow temperature.
As a result (depending on the heat draw), the specified CH flow temperature is briefly exceeded.
In extreme cases, it can happen that the burner does not switch off until the maximum CH flow temper-
ature is reached even though a lower CH flow temperature has been specified.

Thank you for purchasing an RD 532/RD 428 condensing appli-
ance.
The RD 532/RD 428 Series has been developed by the Bosch
Group and the strictest quality control standards are demanded
throughout every stage of production.
Indeed, the Bosch Group have led the field in innovative appliance
design and performance for many years.
The result is that your new RD 532/RD 428 appliance offers you
the very best of everything – quality, efficiency, economical run-
ning costs, proven reliability and value for money.
What’s more, you also have the assurance of our no nonsense
2 year parts and labour guarantee.
And it’s backed up by British Gas - Offering a complete mainte-
nance scheme to keep your boiler operating at peak condition and
efficiency.
No wonder that more and more people are agreeing that when it
is gas, it has to be a British Gas/Scottish Gas Condensing appli-
ance.
Benchmark
The “Benchmark” initiative is the new code of practice to encour-
age the correct installation, commissioning and servicing of
domestic central heating boilers and system equipment.
The “log-book” is a vital document that must be completed by the
installer at the time of installation. It confirms that the boiler has
been installed and commissioned according to the manufacturers
instructions.
Without the completion of the “log-book”, manufacturers may
refuse to respond to a call–out from a householder, who will be
advised that he or she must call back the installer, who has not ful-
filled his obligations to record the information required by the ini-
tiative.

General notes

Combustible materials
B Do not store or use any combustible materials (paper, thin-
ners, paints etc.) in the vicinity of the appliance.
Health and safety
B This appliance contains no asbestos products.
B There is no potential hazard due to the appliance being electri-
cally unsafe.
B There are no substances used in the construction that are a
potential hazard in relation to the COSHH Regulations (Con-
trol of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 1988).
Combustion Air/Ambient Air
B Keep combustion air/ambient air free of corrosive substances
(e.g. halogenated hydrocarbons which contain chlorine or flu-
orine compounds). In this way corrosion can be prevented.

1 General notes
To get the best from your appliance please read these instruc-
tions carefully.
Sealed heating systems
The appliance is fitted to a sealed heating system which is pre-
pressurised. Your installer will tell you of the minimum and maxi-
mum pressure which must be indicated on the pressure gauge.
Check regularly that the pressure is maintained and contact your
installer or maintenance engineer if there is a permanent signifi-
cant drop in the pressure. If the system loses pressure it should
be repressurised and the cause of the fall investigated.
Central heating systems
During the first few hours of operation of the central heating sys-
tem, check that all radiators are being heated at an even rate. If
the top of a radiator is at a lower temperature than the bottom then
it should be vented by releasing air through the venting screw at
the top of the radiator. Ask your installer to show you how this is

6 6 720 610 600 GB (04.06)


General notes

done. Repeated venting will reduce the quantity of water in the


system and this must be replenished for safe and satisfactory
operation of the appliance.
Should water leaks be found in the system or excessive venting is
required then a service engineer must be contacted to inspect the
installation and rectify any fault.
Only additives that are compatible with aluminium may be used in
the system. Any incompatible additive used will invalidate the
guarantee.
Condensate drain
This is a condensing appliance and the terminal will, at times, give
out a plume of water vapour. This is quite normal.
The appliance produces quantities of condense which is dis-
charged regularly through the siphon.
Clearances
Your installer will have provided adequate space around the appli-
ance for safety and servicing access. Do not restrict this space
with the addition of cupboards, shelves etc. next to the appliance.

Room thermostat
A room thermostat may be fitted to control the central heating.
Refer to the instructions supplied with the thermostat for informa-
tion on siting and setting. A programmable thermostat may also
be used with this appliance to provide additional timed control of
the central heating.

General notes

Thermostatic radiator valves


It is recommended that this type of valve is fitted to all the radia-
tors except one, usually radiator where the room thermostat is fit-
ted. They should conform to the requirements of BS2767:10.
Showers, bidets, taps and mixing valves – RD 532 Boilers
Standard hot and cold taps and mixing valves must be suitable for
operating at mains pressure. Thermostatically controlled or pres-
sure equalising shower valves will guard against the flow of water
at too high a temperature.
Hot and cold mains fed water can be supplied directly to an over-
rim flushing bidet subject to local water company requirements.
With all mains fed systems the flow of water from individual taps
will vary with the number of outlets operated simultaneously and
the cold water mains supply pressure to the property.
Flow balancing using “ball-o-fix” type valves is recommended to
avoid an excessive reduction in flow to individual outlets.
For further information contact British Gas Technical Services
Department.
Hot and cold flow – RD 532 Boilers
The flow of water demanded from both hot and cold service out-
lets is dependent upon the mains supply, it may not be possible
in some installations to operate all outlets simultaneously.
Water mains failure – RD 532 Boilers
If there is a failure of the mains water supply then no water will be
available at a tap or shower until the mains supply is restored. The
appliance will still operate in the central heating mode.
Use in hard water areas – RD 532 Boilers
In exceptionally hard water areas a device to prevent scale forma-
tion may be fitted. Installation of a scale inhibitor assembly should
be in accordance with the requirements of the local water com-
pany. An isolating valve should be fitted to allow for servicing.

8 6 720 610 600 GB (04.06)


General notes

Alternatively the maximum temperature of the domestic hot water


may be reset to about 45 °C which will reduce the risk of scale
formation in these hard water areas.
Ventilation
This is a room sealed appliance and does not require any air for
combustion from inside the house. If the appliance is fitted into a
cupboard or a compartment is built around the appliance after
installation then the compartment must be separated from the
boiler space by a perforated non-combustible partition as
described in BS6798.
Notwithstanding the requirements of BS6798, there is no need
for ventilation openings to be provided in the compartment
because of the low heat loss from the casing.
Do not allow the flue terminal fitted on the outside wall to become
obstructed or damaged.
Pump
The pump will have been set by the manufacturer and must not be
manually re-adjusted.

Tips on saving energy

4 Tips on saving energy


Heating economically
The boiler is designed to provide a high level of comfort while
keeping gas consumption and the resulting environmental effect
as low as possible. The gas supply to the burner is con-trolled
according to the level of demand for heat. The boiler con-tinues to
operate with a low flame if the demand for heat reduces. The tech-
nical term for this process is modulating control. Modulating con-
trol keeps temperature fluctuations small and provides even
distribution of heat throughout the home. This means that the
boiler may stay on for relatively long periods but will use less gas
than an appliance that continually switches on and off.
Central heating systems with room thermostats/thermo-
static radiator valves
The central heating control on the boiler should be set to the max-
imum rated temperature of the central heating system or to posi-
tion “E”, when the maximum central heating water temperature
obtained is 75˚C.
The temperature can be set individually in each room (except pri-
mary room with the room thermostat) using the thermostatic radi-
ator valves. If you wish to have a lower temperature in the primary
room than in the other rooms, leave the room thermostat at the set
temperature and turn down the radiator using the radiator valve.
Reduced-output operation
Considerable fuel savings can be made by slightly reducing the
room temperature. Lowering the temperature by 1 °C can bring
about energy savings of up to 5 %. However, it is not advisable to
allow the room temperature to fall below +15 °C. The room tem-
perature for reduced-output mode can be set separately on the
room thermostat. Instructions are given in the control unit operat-
ing instructions.

18 6 720 610 600 GB (04.06)


General Information

Hot water
A lower setting on the hot water temperature control can result in
considerable energy savings.
For RD 532 appliances:
The on-demand activation using the ECO-button makes possi-
ble the maximum savings of gas and water.
