Open vented primary systems

The Greenstar regular boiler range is designed for connection to an open vented fully pumped heating and hot water system.

The following points are for guidance only. The system installation should be carried out in accordance with BS 5449:Part1.

The cistern must be arranged to provide a minimum static head of 0.25 metres above the top of the highest point in the heating circuit.

Air in the appliance is expelled through the vent pipe or dissipated into the system. Manual air vents should be fitted at any high points in the system.
