GENERAL DESCRIPTION
(See Fig.1.)
The WORCESTER 24i or 28i is a combined domestic hot water
and central heating appliance. It consists of a gas fired boiler having a
varying output of between 7.5 kW and 23.4 kW (24i) or 8.5 kw and
27.5 kw (28i), a combined heat-exchanger and all necessary controls to
provide mains fed domestic hot water and central heating.
The appliance can operate in one of two modes as required. Hot
water only or hot water and central heating.
Hot Water Mode:
When a demand is made for hot water by opening a tap or
shower the flow switch will energise and the burner will light at its
maximum setting.
When hot water is no longer required the appliance pump and
fan may continue to operate to dissipate the excess heat within the
boiler.

A flow restrictor is fitted within the appliance which limits the
hot water delivery rate to a maximum of 8.0 (±15%) litres/minute
(1.8 gallons/minute) 24i or 10 (±15%) litres/minute (2.2 gallons/minute)
28i.
Hot Water and Central Heating mode:
When a demand is made for heating by the system controls (i.e. a
programmer or room thermostat).
The pump will energise circulating primary water around the
heating system and the burner will light. The heat output from the
appliance in this mode has been factory set to maximum. The
appliance will operate as necessary to maintain the temperature of the
radiators at the level set by the adjustment of the Heating
Temperature Control Knob.
(See Fig. 2.)
If the system no longer
requires output to maintain
the desired room temperature,
the burner will extinguish.
The pump and fan will
continue to run for a short
period to dissipate the
residual heat from the
appliance and then switch off.
The appliance will supply
heat to the central heating
system as required. A demand
for hot water at a tap or
shower will override the
central heating function for
the period of the domestic hot
water demand.

CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEM
During the first few hours of operation of the central heating
system, check that all radiators are being heated at an even rate.
Should the upper area of a radiator be at a lower temperature than the
base of the radiator, it should be vented by releasing air through the
venting screw at the top of each radiator. Make sure your installer
shows you how to carry out the operation. 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 be
required from any radiator, a service engineer should be contacted and
the system corrected.
SEALED HEATING SYSTEM
The appliance will be fitted to a sealed heating system which is
pre-pressurised. Your installer will advise you on the minimum and
maximum pressure that should be indicated on the pressure gauge.
See Fig. 2. Check regularly that this pressure is maintained and
contact your installer or maintenance engineer if there is a permanent
significant drop in pressure indicated on the gauge. If the system loses
pressure it should be re-pressurised as instructed by the installer
(N.B. Maximum pressure 2.5 bar).
CLEARANCES
Your installer will have provided adequate space around the
appliance for safety and servicing. Do not restrict this space by the
addition of cupboards, shelves etc. close to the appliance.
Minimum clearances in millimetres.
ROOM THERMOSTAT
A room thermostat may be fitted for control of the central heating
temperature. It will be located in one room of the home. The method
of setting a room thermostat varies with the type and manufacture.
Refer to the instructions supplied with the room thermostat.
THERMOSTATIC RADIATOR VALVES
If thermostatic radiator valves are to be fitted to the system then
they must conform to the requirements of BS2767:1972. It is advisable
to leave one valve permanently set at maximum to prevent the boiler
short cycling.

SHOWERS, BIDETS, TAPS AND MIXING
VALVES
Standard hot and cold taps and mixing valves used with the
appliance must be suitable for operating at the available mains
pressure. Thermostatically controlled or pressure equalising shower
valves will guard against the flow of water at too high a temperature.
Hot and cold mains fed water can be supplied direct to an
overrim flushing bidet subject to local water company requirements.
With all mains fed systems the flow of water from the 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 Worcester Heat Systems Ltd.
HOT AND COLD FLOW
If the flow of water demanded from both hot and cold service
outlets is dependent upon mains supply, it may not be possible in
some installations to operate all outlets simultaneously.
WATER MAINS FAILURE
It is important to note that in the event of a mains water supply
failure, no tap water will be available until the mains supply is
restored.
USE IN HARD WATER AREAS
In temporary hard water areas (more than 350mg/litre or 200ppm
calcium bicarbonate) it is recommended that a proprietary scale
reducer is fitted in the mains cold water connection to the appliance.
Consult the local water company for additional advice.
Installation of a scale inhibitor assembly should be in accordance
with the requirements of the local water company. An isolating valve
should be fitted to allow servicing.
The water hardness can be determined by reference to the local
water company.
DOMESTIC HOT WATER TEMPERATURE
CONTROL
By slightly reducing the flow of domestic water from the tap, the
delivery temperature will be increased. This is of particular advantage
in the winter, for example to increase bath water temperature and to
remove heavy grease deposits on plates, etc. Also this will provide an
added advantage of reducing the delay before hot water is obtained.
