It is important that the system is flushed thoroughly before the applianceIt is important that the system is flushed thoroughly before the appliance
is left to operate (as recommended in BS 7593) in order to maintain an
efficiently operating heating system. For replacement installations, the
system MUST be flushed with the old boiler in situ, in order to prevent the
RenoXtra becoming a trap for system debris. Once the system has been
flushed, an inhibitor (suitable for stainless steel heat exchangers) should be
added. Appropriate inhibitors are available, for example Sentinel, Fernox and
Salamader.
Failure to carry out the above procedure will invalidate the
guarantee!
