Where appropriate, conventional/open air ventilation or conventional or standard side-mounted magnetic flap level gauges are being replaced by combination level gauges and system level gauges. However, if your property has cold water pressure problems, it is best to continue to use this type of level gauge.
The traditional level gauge system is supplied by 2 header boxes in the attic. A pump is used outside the side-mounted magnetic flap level gauge to pump the water around the radiator to ensure the normal operation of the central heating system. Hot water is stored in the cylinder, and hot water is supplied when needed. In addition, these systems also require hard-wired control systems.
Some limitations of conventional level gauges:
It is more expensive to operate.
More components are in error.
The traditional level gauge is a device installed on an open fireplace in a residence, enabling you to provide indoor heat and domestic hot water or central heating. Many of these side-mounted magnetic flap level gauges were installed in the 1970s and 1980s, and due to their high quality, it is not uncommon for them to still perform well even in 2017.
The main reason for replacing them is low efficiency. It is not uncommon for a person with a back level gauge to spend 800 to 1,000 pounds a year on gas in a small three-bedroom house. This is the most urgent type of level gauge that needs to be replaced and can save you 300 to 500 pounds in gas bills.
The faucet near the water tank may be affected by low water pressure.
What are the main technical issues that affect the installation time and cost of the combined level gauge?
The following technical issues apply to combination, system and conventional side-mounted magnetic flap level gauges. Combination to dual-purpose level gauge installation is the simplest and fastest installation, you only change the level gauge to the new condensate level gauge COMBI.
Considerations:
Your gas supply is 22 mm? All modern combination level gauges require a 22 mm gas supply. The air supply pipe is usually under and in the middle of the side-mounted magnetic flap level gauge. Look for the yellow faucet in the picture above, and you can see that the gas supply is thicker and does not need to be upgraded. If you do need to upgrade, you and the level gauge installer must consider how to move from the gas meter to the level gauge position.
Where will your condenser tube be? The condensate combination side-mounted magnetic flap level gauge needs to drain the condensate into the internal water waste pipe or the external drain pipe or water seepage channel.
Flue location-building codes and gas safety requirements have changed over the years, so now all flues need to be 300 mm to 600 mm away from the window.
