4.6 Water Treatment

For optimum performance after installation, the boiler and its
associated central heating system should be flushed in
accordance with BS7593:1992 using a cleanser such as Sentinel
X300 or X400, or Fernox Superfloc.

For long term corrosion protection, after flushing, an inhibitor
suitable for aluminium heat exchangers should be used.
Examples are Sentinel X100 and Fernox Copal.

4.7 Draining Tap

A draining tap must be provided at the lowest points of the
system, which will allow the entire system to be drained.

The flow and return isolation valves are provided with drain
points for boiler heat exchanger drainage, see diagram 8.1.
