Packed in the box with the Remeha Avanta box is this Installation and Service manual. Read instructions and remarks carefully. This section includes the guidelines and instructions for the connection of gas, water, electricity, safety devices, the regulator, control unit, flue discharge and air supply.
The gas connection is located on the bottom of the boiler whilst the water connections, air inlet and flue gas outlet are located on the top of the boiler. The boiler is supplied as standard with gas pipe work tails.
For installation, servicing and inspection min. 600 mm in front of the boiler is required. If this free space is obtained by opening a door or removing a panel, the boiler may be installed for instance in a closed cupboard. All servicing / inspection / repairs are made from the front of the boiler.
For ease of installation we recommend clearances of 0.5 cm at the side so that the unit is easy to open, with a free space of 25 cm under the appliance and 25 cm above the appliance, as the minimum requirement.
However once installed, it is possible to reduce these clearances to 22 cm at the top, and 25 cm at the bottom provided the boiler front panel can be removed and the isolating valves are easily accessible without the use of tools.
fig. 03 Clearance requirements
59970LTGBW7H047
Clearances shown are for ease of installation - once fitted it is possible to enclose the boiler in a cupboard with 25 mm clearances around the casing provided a door is included to allow the front cover to be removed completely for maintenance and allowance is made to access the gas valve and flow / return connections.

The central heating system should not require a bypass, unless all radiators are fitted with TRV's or when the system controls could allow the boiler and pump to operate when there is no flow. Where a bypass has to be fitted, the bypass must be placed at least 1.5 metres away from the boiler.
The 'abc®' control also monitors the temperature difference across the flow and return connections and the rate of temperature rise and will automatically regulate the boiler output to ensure that it remains operational for as long as possible without the need to 'lock out' requiring a manual reset.
The system pump must be wired directly to the boiler terminal strip and be capable of providing the nominal flow at design conditions against the combined resistance of the boiler and system.

The feed and expansion tank must be situated at a minimum height of 1 metre and a maximum height of 30 metres above the boiler to provide the correct operating head pressure.
The cold feed must be at least 15 mm and the open vent must be at least 22 mm. The pipes must rise continuously from the system. The heating vent must be at least 450 mm above the water level in the feed and expansion cistern. The pump should be fitted on the flow pipe from the boiler and have isolating valves each side.
If the Avanta is installed on a sealed system, an appropriately sized expansion vessel and a safety valve MUST be installed close to the inlet side of the pump. A mains filling loop MUST be installed close to the outlet side of the system pump, along with automatic air vents positioned in the system pipe work to ensure adequate system venting during filling and operation. An adequate pressure gauge should be fitted in a position where it can be seen during filling of the system. All in accordance with the current issue of the relevant British Standards.

If used correctly water treatment can improve the boilers efficiency and increase the anticipated life expectancy of the boiler. For further information a special document "Quality requirements CH water" is available from Remeha. As most systems contain a variety of metals, it is considered good practice to provide some form of water treatment in order to prevent or reduce the following:
All scale deposits however small will reduce the efficiency of the boiler and should be prevented.
Suitable chemicals and their use should be discussed with a specialist water treatment company prior to carrying out any work (environmental aspects, health aspects). The specification of the system and manufacturers recommendations must be taken into account, along with the age and condition of the system. New systems should be flushed thoroughly to BS 7593 (1992) to remove all traces of flux, debris, grease and metal swarf generated during installation. Care to be taken with old systems to ensure any black metallic iron oxide sludge and other corrosive residues are removed, again by power flushing, ensuring that the system is drained completely from all low points.
Please ensure that the new boiler plant is not in circuit when the flushing takes place, especially if cleansing chemicals are used to assist the process.
It is important to check the inhibitor concentration after installation, system modifications, filling the system and every service in accordance with these instructions.
For the correct dosage and the suitability of inhibitors for use with our boilers and for further information on water treatment or system cleaning we advise direct contact with either of the following companies:
'F1®' manufactured by:
or: Sentinal 'X100®' manufactured by: |
A pressure relief safety valve is not needed for Open-Vented systems.
Drain points must be provided at all the low points of the system to ensure that the entire system can be completely drained. The boiler is provided with a drain in the return pipe.

Before installation, check that the gas meter has sufficient capacity for the demand. Remember to consider the consumption of all household appliances.
The Avanta boiler is suitable for both natural gas and propane firing. For propane a kit with restrictor is required. The boiler is supplied as standard set for natural gas (G20), therefore the following procedure must be carried out BEFORE the boilers are fired and commissioned for the first time on propane:
- Fit restrictor (not included with boiler)
- Adjust the fan speed (see par. 2.10.8) and adjust the gas/air ratio (see par. 2.10.3). |

59970.LT.GB.W7H.035
The Remeha Avanta is only suitable for room sealed operation with a standard concentric connection 60/100 mm Ø or the optional 80/125 mm Ø connection. Detailed recommendations for air supply and flue terminals are given in BS 5440. It should not be necessary to provide compartment ventilation when the boiler is used with a standard concentric flue.
The flue terminal must be located with care to ensure that the products of combustion are dispersed properly in all weather conditions and cause minimum nuisance to the building user or any adjacent buildings. If the terminal is positioned less than 2 m above the ground, balcony, or flat roof where access by persons is possible a suitable guard must be employed.
The boiler will produce a water vapour plume during normal operation. Positions for the Remeha Avanta are shown in the figure and table 02.
The principle of the 1:1 gas valve ensures the Avanta range is able to deliver it's full output at inlet pressure down to 17 mbar. However if dynamic pressure below 19 mbar are experienced ensure this is adequate for ALL other gas appliances in the property.

R000152-B
When the switch spur is on, the terminal strip X2 will be live (230 V).
For this option to function correctly, a link or room control must be fitted between connectors 7 and 8 of X9 terminal strip (remove existing link before use). If the 230 V supply for the external time clock is not taken from the boiler - terminal block X2 connections 4 & 5, it must be taken from the same phase as the boiler 230 V supply and correct polarities observed.
fig. 19 Wiring diagram for an external 230 V time clock
R000162-A
With an externally mounted simple 230 V switching time clock connected to connectors on X2 terminal strip and a qSense connected to connectors 7 and 8 of X9 terminal strip (remove existing link), the Remeha Avanta will provide room compensated heating and time control over CH and DHW.
An OpenTherm® room modulating control (qSense) used in conjunction with a simple external 230 V time clock will provide easy to set up and operate - timed room compensation heating.
The Remeha Avanta has an OpenTherm® interface. This enables our modulating range of OpenTherm® room controls (e.g. the Remeha qSense or iSense) to be connected without any further modifications.
If the DHW water temperature on the OpenTherm® control can be adjusted, then the Remeha Avanta will supply water at the temperature determined at the OpenTherm® with the maximum being set in the boiler. OpenTherm® is an industry standard modulating control available from several control manufacturers.
fig. 20 Wiring diagram modulating regulator
R000153-B
The Remeha Avanta can therefore be controlled directly by any other controls with this OpenTherm® logo
An outside temperature sensor can be connected to connectors 1 and 2 of the X9 terminal strip. The boiler will regulate the output using the set point of the internal heat curve. This can be set as follows:
- Outside temperature minimum set point = -15°C (adjustable
with parameter [P][2][9] to between 0 and -30°C). - Outside temperature maximum set point = 20°C (adjustable with parameter [P][2][8] to between 0 and 40°C). - Flow temperature set point at maximum outside temperature = 20°C (adjustable with parameter [P][2][7] to between 0 and 60°C). - Flow temperature set point at minimum outside temperature = 20°C ([P][1] Adjustable between 20-85°C but the highest water temperature setting for this type of boilers is limited to 75°C, see par 2.10.8.) |
An outside sensor used in conjunction with a simple 230 V time clock will provide easy to set up and operate - timed weather compensation heating based on the graph below.

If an external DHW calorifier is being used with the Avanta system boiler a DHW control sensor or volt-free thermostat can be connected to connectors 3 and 4 of the X9 terminal strip. The control will automatically detect whether a sensor or a thermostat has been connected.
fig. 23 Wiring diagram DHW calorifier sensor or thermostat
R000194-A
If required a 230 V DIVERTING three-way valve can be connected to terminal X5 of the control unit. When used in conjunction with an "Open Therm" compensator the DHW-production operates with priority.
Connector X5-1 for N (neutral), connector X5-2 for "open valve to DHW" (port A of three-way valve) and connector X5-3 for "open valve to CH" (port B of three-way valve)
If port A is connected to heating and port B to hot water X5-3 should be used to enable DHW.
The cable must be fed through the boiler's casing by means of the supplied cable gland and run trough the cable clamp on the right-hand inside of the boiler.
fig. 24 Wiring diagram three-way valve
R000160-A
The boiler must be installed in a frost-free area to prevent the condensate drain from freezing. However if the temperature of the CH water in the boiler drops too low, the integrated boiler protection device is activated as follows:
- at a water temperature below 7°C: the circulation pump is
switched on;
- at a water temperature below 3°C: the boiler is switched on; - when the water temperature is above 10°C: the boiler is switched off and the circulation pump runs for another 15 minutes. |
fig. 25 Wiring diagram for frost thermostat
R000155-B
If a 230 V switching time clock is connected to terminal strip X2, the frost thermostat wired as indicated (on connectors 7 and 8 of the X9 terminal strip) it will not bring the boiler on if the time clock is in the OFF position. In these cases the frost stat must be connected in parallel with the time clock on connectors 1 and 4 of the X2 terminal strip (frost stat contacts to close on temperature fall).
• A frost thermostat should preferably be installed in rooms with a high frost risk.
• Connect the frost thermostat in parallel to the room thermostat - connectors 7 and 8 of the X9 terminal strip (remove existing link between connectors 7 and 8 before use).
• The integrated boiler protection described above will not provide complete system or fabric protection.
• When a iSense control has been fitted to connectors 7 and 8 on X9 (see par. 2.7.4) an outside sensor as detailed in par. 2.7.5) must be used to provide system and building fabric frost protection.
• If a frost thermostat is connected parallel to the iSense on connectors 7 and 8 on X9, when the frost thermostat calls for heat (contact closed) it will override the iSense control and cause an error message (OT ERROR) flashes in the display and the boiler will operate continuously to achieve the flow set point.
The Remeha Avanta is supplied with an external interlock function. A volt free switching device (i.e. external gas pressure switch, safety thermostat for under floor heating) can be connected to connectors 5 and 6 of the X9 terminal strip after removing the existing link. When this circuit is open the boiler will shut down with the display showing (code [9]) and will restart when the circuit is closed.
fig. 26 Wiring diagram for an external interlock
R000195-A
As standard the boiler is supplied with 3 volt free connectors on terminal X7. They can be used for an external gas valve, remote alarm and boiler run indication.
• Common alarm signal connect to connectors 1 and 2 on terminal X7. Contact closes on lock out. For this purpose set parameter [2][4] from [0] to [1].
• Boiler run signal connect to connectors 1 and 3 on terminal X7. Contact closes on heat demand. For this purpose set parameter [2][4] from [0] to [2].
• Connect an external gas valve to connectors 1 and 3 on terminal X7. Contact closes when the gas valve is activated. For this purpose set parameter [2][4] from [0] to [3].
• Connect an external pump relay* to connectors 1 and 3 on terminal X7. Contact closes on heat demand. For this purpose set parameter [2][4] from [0] to [4].
* Never connect a pump directly to connectors 1 and 3 on terminal X7, but only via a relay.

Set boiler to part load: Press the [enter]-key until [L][3] appears in the display, part load has been set.
Check the flame through the sight glass which should be stable with a regular orange distribution. Once the unit has been set to part load, the 'test at full load' should be repeated.
Only make small adjustments of the adjusting screw, maximum 1/8 turns when setting O2 /CO2
Ensure that the analysing probe has a gas tight seal in the sampling point with the probe end in the centre of the flue duct.
Repeat the 'test at full load' and 'test at part load' as often as necessary until the correct values are achieved without further adjustments
Following a manual override the boiler will return to normal operating mode if no keys are pressed for 15 minutes.
The boiler is now ready for operation.
The Remeha Avanta is delivered pre-tested and operating parameters set up with standard factory settings to suit the most common systems. These setting can be adjusted to suit specific site conditions but must not be changed without reference to Remeha or one of our approved contractors

The operating parameters of the Remeha Avanta have been factory set to suit most systems. However it is possible to adjust some of the parameters to enable the Remeha Avanta to operate more efficiently to match specific system designs and site conditions. These parameters are split into two specific sections:
How to change the parameters at user level can be read on the "Short reference card" provided and therefore will not be detailed in this Installation and Service manual.
To avoid non authorised adjustments, some parameter settings can only be changed once the special access code [1][2] has been entered. This code may only be used by qualified installers.

The boiler must be switched off and allowed to cool down before any maintenance or repairs are carried out. If the central heating system is not going to be used for a long time (during the holidays, forn instance, or frost-free periods) it is advisable to put the boiler out of operation.
Now the boiler will only start working to protect itself against freezing. With external frost protection, the boiler can also prevent the central heating system from freezing.
Drain the boiler and central heating system if you will not be using the home for a long period and there is a chance of night frost.
The Remeha Avanta is practically maintenance free but should be inspected annually.
If during the annual inspection the flue gas analysis indicates that the values are outside the figures given in table 10, maintenance work should be carried out as described in par. 3.2.
Also carry out maintenance if the ionisation read-out value is lower than 3 or higher than 9µA, or when the flame core is not correct.
Only Remeha spare parts/materials should be used. All service and maintenance must be carried out by a qualified Engineer with the relevant training and certification (i.e. ACS - IEE registrations etc).
The annual inspection of the Remeha Avanta can be limited to the following checks:
- check the flue pipes and air supply pipes for leaks, see
par. 3.1.1;
- check and clean (if necessary) the condensate siphon, see par. 3.1.2; - check the ionisation/ignition electrode and change if necessary, see par. 3.1.3; - check the combustion and flame pattern, see par. 3.1.4; - fill in the Benchmark Service Record on the inside back pages of this document. |

- deposits (remove any white deposits with abrasive cloth);
- the adjustment of the ignition electrode (between 3 and 4mm);
- the quality of the gasket and condition of the porcelain (this should not be cracked) inspect and replace if necessary;
If the read-out value is lower than 3 or higher than 9µA, check cable and connections are sound if OK replace the ignition electrode.
The ignition cap is fixed on the ignition electrode and therefore cannot be removed.

59970LTGBW7H026
Do this as follows:
- heat the water temperature in the boiler to approx. 70°C;
- unscrew the top of the flue gas point of measurement; - measure the O2 /CO2 percentage and compare this to the check values in table 10. |

The Remeha Avanta has an advanced control unit. The heart of this control unit is a microprocessor, the abc®-control which both controls and protects the boiler. If an error is detected anywhere in the boiler, it will lock out and an error code will appear in the display.
The Remeha Avanta displays the error codes as follows: [E][2] (the display alternately shows an [E] and a number e.g. [2]). The meaning of the various error codes can be found in the error table, see table 12.
How to deal with errors:
• Make a note of the displayed error code.

table 12 Error codes
* When sensors have been taken out, be sure to replace them max. 40 mm underneath heat exchanger.
If you read out a not listed error, please report to Remeha.
The code [d][8], [d][5] or [d][9] can appear in the display.
Every 10 minutes the boiler will try to restart until the cause has been removed.
• Code [d][9] is a lock-out and can appear in the following situation:
- the shut down input (between terminals 5 and 6 on X9) has been activated (= opened).
The lock-out will disappear once the cause has been removed!
The Remeha Avanta control unit has an error code memory, in which the last 16 errors are stored. In addition to the error code ([E] and a number [X][X]).
• The following data is also stored:
- the number of times the error occurred (n and a number
xx).
- the operating status of the boiler (5t and a number xx). - the flow temperature (t1 and the value xx) return temperature (t2 and the value xx) at the time the error occurred. |
To get access to the error memory, access code must be entered.

The last message in the list, Er followed by cl will appear in the display;
When tracing an error, the cause can often be found more quickly if the operating status at the time the error occurred can be retrieved from the error memory.
If, following the annual inspection or maintenance any part of the boiler is found to need replacing, use Remeha spare parts only or spare parts and materials recommended by Remeha.
If any component is to be replaced and it is covered by the terms and condition as described in the warranty leaflet return the faulty component to Remeha with the details as shown in table 13.

Flue / Air inlet connection
|
The Remeha Avanta casing serves as a sealed air box, with air drawn in by the fan. On the outlet side of the fan is a venturi, into which a measured quantity of gas is injected based on the volume of air available. The fan speed control is dependent on the settings of the external control, the advanced boiler controller 'abc®' and the prevailing temperatures (measured by the temperature sensors).
This method of gas/air ratio control ensures that the gas quantity is precisely adjusted to the air quantity. Thus creating optimum combustion over the whole heat input range. The gas and air is mixed in the venturi and then passes into the specially designed pre-mix burner. After combustion, the hot flue gas is directed through a specially designed, high efficiency helicoil stainless steel heat exchanger with a large surface area, and transfers its heat to the system water circulating around the coils. In the condensing part of the exchanger the water vapour in the flue gas condense within it and the heat released during this process (the so-called latent or condensing heat) is also transferred to the system water. The condensate water so formed is discharged from the heat exchanger via a siphon.
In normal operation, the boiler's flue gas discharge will produce a visible white condensing "plume" and therefore care should be taken when choosing a location for the terminal.
The Remeha Avanta is a fully modulating boiler and can be regulated using one or more of the following methods:
An intelligent advanced boiler control ('abc®') continuously monitors the boiler conditions and ensures a very reliable supply of heat. This control system is adept at dealing with negative influences from the system such as flow reduction, airflow problems and alike. In the event of such influences, the boiler will not go to "lock-out" failure mode, but will in the first instance modulate back, and if necessary, depending on the nature of the circumstances, will temporarily switch off (shutdown or control stop), and then after a short while simply try again.
Provided that the situation is not actually hazardous, the Remeha Avanta will always try to supply heat. The 'abc®'- control prevents unnecessary additional call outs.
The Remeha Avanta is fitted with an electronic temperature regulator with flow and return temperature sensors. The flow temperature can be set to between 20 and 75°C, see par.2.10.8 (factory setting 75°C.
The boiler modulates it's output up and down to match the flow set point from internal or external control. When the boiler is at it's at minimum output and the flow temperature still continues to rise, once the flow set point is exceeded by 5°C the boiler will shut down on a controlled stop (code [8]).
The Remeha Avanta has a low-water protection based on temperature readings. By modulating down as soon as there is a risk of an insufficient water flow, the boiler will keep working for as long as possible. An insufficient water flow, however caused, - indicated by a flow/return ∆T > 22°C or a rate of rise in the flow temperature > 1°C/sec - will be sensed by the 'abc®' control which will shut the boiler down in a blocking mode with the display showing (code [9]) for 10 minutes and before re starting.
If there is no water in the boiler or if the pump is not running, it will go to lock out (code [E][7]) and require manual re-set.
If the flow temperature exceeds 98°C the high limit temperature protection device switches off the boiler in a lock out mode with the display showing (code [E][1]). This mode will require a manual re-set.
When the fault is corrected, the boiler can be restarted by pressing the [reset]-key on the control panel and holding for 3 seconds.
