The Comb 24 HE should rest on a concrete slab or reinforced platform with a minimum clearance of 200 mm from the floor. Verify that the surface can support the unit’s weight and that the surrounding area allows for the ventilation. Shut off the gas supply and isolate the boiler from the mains to ensure safety during installation. Connect the gas line using a 1/2‑inch copper or PEX pipe, tightening all fittings to 10 Nm to prevent leaks. Attach the cold water supply and hot water return lines with the supplied 3/4‑inch brass fittings, securing them with lock nuts. Wire the control panel according to the schematic: 230 V AC, 50 Hz, 3‑phase. Install the exhaust vent, a 150 mm diameter stainless‑steel pipe that must run vertically to a height of at least 3 m above the roofline, incorporating a 45° bend at the top to facilitate proper draft. Seal all joints with silicone caulk to prevent air ingress. Perform a pressure test by raising the system to 1.5 bar and holding for 30 minutes to ensure integrity. Turn on the gas and check for leaks with a soapy solution. Power up the boiler, set the thermostat to 55 °C, and observe the first heating cycle. Verify the ventilation system is functioning: the exhaust should expel combustion gases outside, and the intake should draw fresh air from the room. Document all installation parameters and retain the commissioning log for warranty purposes. All steps meet the code!!

Operational Setup

Set the thermostat to desired temperature, press the start button, allow the boiler to warm up. Check the water pressure gauge; it should read 1.0–1.5 bar. Verify the heating and hot‑water circuits are active. Adjust the flow‑rate valve to balance comfort and efficiency. Monitor the display for errors!!! !!

Initial Startup and Function Testing

Before powering on the Main Comb 24 HE, verify that all connections are secure and that the water supply is closed. Open the main water valve and allow the tank to fill until the pressure gauge reads 1.2 bar. Next, close the valve, check for leaks, and ensure the condensate drain is clear. With the unit unplugged, press the Power button and observe the LED sequence: a steady green indicates readiness, while a flashing amber signals a fault. Once the green light stabilises, the boiler will begin the pre‑heat cycle. During this phase, the heating element warms the water, and the thermostat registers the temperature. After 10 minutes, the display should show “Ready” and the Hot Water and Heating icons will light. To confirm proper operation, set the thermostat to 22 °C and the hot‑water tap to 50 °C. Verify that the water temperature rises to the set points within 5 minutes. If the temperature does not reach the target, check the flow‑rate valve and ensure the circulation pump is running. Finally, run a test cycle by selecting the Test mode on the control panel; the boiler will cycle through heating and hot‑water functions, displaying each status. Successful completion of the test will be indicated by a green checkmark and a 5‑second pause before the system returns to standby. If any error codes appear, consult the troubleshooting section for corrective actions. The boiler’s LEDs flash green during normal operation and amber if a fault is detected, giving feedback.
