Default Anyone know about fitting condensor combi boilers? plumbers.

been fitting a new central heating system into my house this weekend.

I've fitted a C+M Minima HE 30 boiler.

but its come to the last connections on the boiler.

i have the C/H pressure releif valve, and a grey (about 25mm ID) flexi bit of pipe coming from the Siphon.

Where do these go, as reading the instructions, and they are not all that clear and its changes thro it.

i want to get it all running, then get a Corgi Plumber to check it, and set it up and sign it off. (got a couple of of plumbers willing to, as they know a mate)

Cheers Danny

The C/H pressure relief valve needs to go outside and be made so that it is pointing back onto the brick face. This is because if the pressure in the system gets too high it will release, and you dont want boiling hot water shooting across a path/garden ect

The other pipe is the condesing drain.
This needs to be either buried in an appropriate soak away in the ground (Will tell you in the fitting book) or be put into a drain with a sutable inline trap
