2 DESCRIPTION
The Vokera EASI-FLO is an instantaneous water heater, which - by design - incorporates electronic ignition, NTC temperature control and a
coaxial flue that can be rotated – horizontally – through 360 degrees for various horizontal or vertical applications.
The EASI-FLO can also be used with the Vokera twin flue system.
All installers are asked to follow the Benchmark Scheme by adhering to the Code of Practise, which can be obtained from
www.centralheating.co.uk.

tion especially the flue system and the electrical apparatus.
-- Check and adjust – if necessary – all burner pressure settings (see

8.3 CHECKING AND ADJUSTING BURNER). 1
-- Carry out an analysis of the flue gases (see 8.4 EXTERNAL FAULTS),
and visually check the condition of the entire flue assembly.
-- Compare the results with the appliance design specification. Any
deterioration in performance must be identified and rectified with-
out delay.
-- Ensure both flue venturis are clean and free from any debris or ob-
struction.
-- Ensure both the burner and heat exchanger are clean and free from
any debris or obstruction.
-- Inspect all joints for signs of leakage and repair if necessary.
-- Refer to the commissioning section and/or replacement of parts

be made to ensure gas soundness, water soundness, and the electri-
cal integrity of the appliance.
