![WORCESTER GREENSTAR HEATSLAVE II Floor Standing Oil-Fired Condensing Boiler
- Fig 3](https://manuals.plus/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/WORCESTER-GREENSTAR- HEATSLAVE-II-Floor-Standing-Oil-Fired-Condensing-Boiler-Fig-3.jpg)
3.2.5 Domestic hot water (DHW)
The GREENSTAR HEATSLAVE II is microprocessor controlled and at low DHW flow
rates (washing hands etc), the burner will not fire up immediately when the
tap is opened as the heat store will meet the demand, but at high flow rates
(filling a bath for example) the burner will fire up to boost the heat store
and meet the demand.
If DHW is OFF on the programmer, the appliance will still supply DHW using
heat stored in the tank, but it will not reheat the tank, therefore the amount
of water available is limited but is adequate for washing up, filling basins
etc.
We recommend that DHW is timed off overnight and when the home is unoccupied
to save energy. The timer should be set for at least half an hour before
normal hot water demands are expected to reheat the heat store.
When reheating the heat store the controls will reclaim heat from the boiler
for the tank, this means that the pump will run (and the blue light will be
on) for some time after the burner has turned off whilst heat reclaiming takes
place.
WARNING: Scalding hazard Care should be taken when using slow running
taps and showers.
▶ In some circumstances, the combination of low water flow rate and high
setting of the hot water control thermostat can result in very hot water.
3.2.6 Eco mode
Domestic hot water eco mode
Eco mode is an energy saving feature which alters the cycling function of the
burner for heating the heat store tank. In normal operation the burner will
fire more frequently between demands in order to maintain a stored temperature
close to the hot water set point you have entered. In Eco mode, the burner
fires less frequently between demands meaning that the heat store temperature
is maintained at a lower average level, but the tank set point remains the
same.
By selecting Eco mode you will be using less energy as the tank is allowed to
cool a little more before reheating to the set point.
Selecting Eco mode
- Press and hold for at least four seconds to enter the energy saving Eco mode, when Eco mode is active, “Eco” will be displayed.
![WORCESTER GREENSTAR HEATSLAVE II Floor Standing Oil-Fired Condensing Boiler
- Fig 4](https://manuals.plus/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/WORCESTER-GREENSTAR- HEATSLAVE-II-Floor-Standing-Oil-Fired-Condensing-Boiler-Fig-4.jpg)
Exit eco mode
▶ To exit Eco mode, press and hold for at least four seconds, “Eco” will
disappear
3.2.7 Frost protection
- The boiler has built in frost protection to protect the boiler, the boiler must have power for this to operate.
- If you are leaving the property unoccupied during cold weather, please leave your programmer on constant and your room thermostat set to around 10 to 15°C.
- If the temperature within the boiler falls below 8°C the pump will run to circulate water and prevent the system freezing.
- If the temperature within the boiler falls below 4.5°C the boiler will fire immediately, bringing the boiler temperature up to 12°C to avoid the possibility of the system freezing.
- This process will be repeated until such time that the boiler temperature does not drop below 4.5°C.
3.2.8 System pressure
This boiler is fitted to a sealed heating system which is pre pressurised.
Your installer will advise you of the minimum and maximum pressure indicated
on the pressure gauge.
▶ Check regularly that the pressure is maintained.
Optimum system pressure when your boiler is cold (area A) and the pump is off. The indicated pressure will change as the pump switches on, for more accurate readings check pressure when the pump is not running.
- If the pressure gauge reads less than 1 bar then the system requires re-charging.
- Check for leaks on heating system (pipe work and radiator valves).
- Contact your installer or maintenance engineer if a permanent significant decrease or increase in pressure is indicated on the pressure gauge.
- Constantly having to re-pressuring the heating system should be investigated as the concentration of inhibitor in the system will be reduced; this can result in corrosion within the heating system.
Filling loop
If the sealed system pressure within your system drops to below 0.5 bar (shown
on the pressure gauge) you will need to increase the pressure to ensure your
boiler continues to run without problems.
**** Your installer should have informed you where to find the filling system
and instructed you in its use.
Once the external filling loop has been located, follow the instructions for
re-pressurising the system.
- Unscrew blanking cap.
- Attach the hose to the valves, screw on hand-tight.
- Turn the handle/screwdriver slot through 90° to open valves.
- The handle/screwdriver slot will be in line with the valves.
- When the pressure reaches between the 1 and 1.5 bar marks (zone A), turn the handles/screwdriver slots back, through 90°, to close the valves.
- The handle/screwdriver slot will be at 90° to the valves.
- Remove the hose and replace the blanking caps.
Maintenance
4.1 Troubleshooting
Boiler alert state
Should a fault develop with this boiler (or the system), the boiler will enter

▶ Make a note of these fault codes, in the table below as an example see figure 7, fault codes E5 and 218.
▶ Contact Worcester, Bosch Group for assistance and quote any fault codes displayed.
Flashing fault code | Three figure number |
---|---|
e.g. E5 | e.g. 218 |
Boiler stops with no fault code
In most cases these fault conditions will clear automatically when the
associated fault clears e.g. waiting for an area of the boiler to cool down.
If the boiler fails to automatically reset itself after a period of 30mins,
call Worcester, Bosch Group, contact details are on the back page of this
manual.
4.2 Servicing
You must have the boiler regularly serviced by a competent, qualified OFTEC
registered engineer using approved spares, to help maintain the economy,
safety and reliability of the boiler.
The boiler should be serviced once each year after installation unless the
installation conditions and usage demand more frequent services.
** The service engineer must complete the Service Record in the checklist
after each service. The completed checklist will be required in the event of
any warranty work and may be required by the local Building Control Inspector.
The checklist and service interval record can be found at the rear of the
Installation, Commissioning and Servicing Instructions.

WARNING:
Caution must be exercised when venting radiators or adjusting system pressure
after commission of your boiler.
Do not repeatedly vent your radiators, if the problem persists, contact a
heating engineer.
▶ Do not vent air from radiators whilst the central heating is switched on:
turn your boiler off.
▶ Whilst venting radiators do not allow the pressure on the boiler to drop
below the pressure at which it is normally set.
CAUTION:
If the pressure in your heating system is repeatedly rising (this can be
checked via the boiler pressure gauge and should be checked when the system is
cold), and especially if you need to keep venting the radiators, urgent action
is required and you must contact a heating engineer. This can indicate that
there is corrosion occurring within the heating system.
▶ This must be properly addressed to prevent serious damage to the entire
system.
▶ Failure to properly maintain the heating system may affect your warranty.

4.5 Maintaining your boiler
Your new boiler represents a long term investment in a reliable, high quality
product.
In order to realise its maximum working life and to ensure it continues to
operate at peak efficiency and performance, it is essential that servicing and
maintenance checks are performed at least once a year by an OFTEC engineer or
other suitably qualified person.
If you would like to know more about servicing options from Worcester, Bosch
Group, please visit worcester-bosch.co.uk.
Please tick the appropriate box on your warranty registration card for further
details of the Worcester, Bosch Group Service Contract.
When your boiler requires servicing please contact a Worcester, Bosch Group
contact centre (see inside front cover for details).
In addition to the service contract we are pleased to offer a one-off annual
service or breakdown call out for your boiler.
Maintenance tips
Regularly check the oil level in the tank. Running the tank empty or low can
lead to damage to the burner.
Do not obstruct the flue outlet or the air inlet.
Use in hard water areas
In exceptionally hard water areas a device to prevent scale formation may be
fitted. 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 for servicing.
5.1 Ventilation information
Boiler location
** The boiler can be installed under a worktop as long as the following
conditions are met:
- The worktop above the boiler is easily removable for maintenance.
- There is at least 10mm clearance above the boiler.
- The front of the boiler is not enclosed.
Ventilation
Air vents must be functional at all times and the air supply must not be
restricted or contaminated.
The boiler clearances must meet the minimum shown below for servicing and
venting purposes.
- If this clearance is less than 75mm the flue ‘knock-out’ panel sections must be removed to improve air circulation and cooling.
Do not place clothes or objects to hinder the air circulation required by the boiler.
Servicing clearances
Conventional flue boilers require an adequate supply of fresh air which must
be delivered to the boiler for combustion purposes through a permanent inlet,
such as an air brick, into the area where the boiler is situated.
If a cupboard or compartment which is to be used for storage or airing is
built around the boiler after installation there must be a non-combustible
partition around the boiler. Refer to the installation manual for minimum vent
sizes.
5.2 General notes
To get the best from your boiler. please read these instructions carefully.
Central heating systems
During the first few hours of operation of the central heating system,
check that all radiators are being heated at an even rate. If the top of a
radiator is at a lower temperature than the bottom then it should be vented by
releasing air through the venting screw at the top of the radiator. Ask your
installer to show you how this is done. Repeated venting will reduce the
quantity of water in the system and this must be replenished for safe and
satisfactory operation of the boiler.
When excessive venting or water leaks are found in the system you must contact
a service engineer to inspect the installation and rectify any fault.
Only use additives compatible with the boiler and system. Use of incompatible
additives can cause damage and will invalidate the boiler guarantee.
Condensate drain
This is a condensing boiler and the terminal will, at times give out a plume
of water vapour. This is quite normal.
The boiler also produces quantities of condensate which is discharged
regularly via a pipe to the disposal point. This pipe must not be blocked or
altered in any way.
Clearances – Service
Your installer will have provided adequate space around the boiler for safety
and servicing access.
Do not restrict this space with the addition of cupboards, shelves etc. next
to the boiler.
Room thermostat
A room temperature controller must be fitted to control the central heating.
Refer to instructions supplied with the thermostat for information on siting
and setting.
Thermostatic radiator valves
It is recommended that this type of valve is fitted to all but one of the
radiators (or at least those in the sleeping accommodation). The remaining
radiator, which must be where the room thermostat is located, should be un-
controlled and must be left open.
Oil supply
This appliance is for use with Kerosene (Class C2)only. Running the oil tank
empty or low may result in damage to the burner.
Energy saving
6.1 Tips on energy saving
Room thermostats
Reducing the setting of the room thermostat by 1°C can reduce fuel consumption
by up to 10%.
New control systems
Upgrade your heating control system with the latest equipment available. The
minimum level of control for a heating system is a programmer, interlocking
room thermostat and thermostatic radiator valves.
Radiators
More often than not radiators will be sited underneath a window, so the warm
air from the radiator heats the colder incoming air from the window.
The performance of the radiator will be affected if the curtains are allowed
to drape over the radiator or shelves are fitted above it.
The positioning of furniture and tables in front of the radiator should also
be avoided.
It is advisable to manually adjust all radiator valves every 2-3 months to
prevent them from sticking. It is also important that the plastic tops of all
valves are always in position and not cracked or damaged to help prevent
accidents. Care should be taken when vacuum cleaning carpets to avoid damage
to valves and pipework.
The heating system and the outputs of the radiators have been carefully
selected by your installer. The temperature obtainable in any given room is
dependent on all radiators being operated at the same time. If you decide to
turn off radiators in unused rooms, spare bedrooms etc., you may experience
slightly lower room temperatures in rooms adjacent to unheated rooms.
Heating economically
The boiler is designed to provide a high level of comfort while keeping oil
consumption and the resulting environmental effect as low as possible.
The central heating control on the boiler should be set as low as possible
while still maintaining a comfortable room temperature.
The temperature of each room can be set individually using the thermostatic
radiator valves (except the primary room with the room thermostat).
Roof insulation
Around 30% of the heat loss from a property is through the roof. Replace any
old insulation with new insulation, preferably to a minimum thickness of
200mm.
Window frames
Single glazed windows, particularly those with steel frames, can lose a great
deal of heat.
Consideration should be given to replacement with PVCu or wooden framed double
glazed units.
Curtains
Lined curtains, or heavier full length curtains can provide excellent
insulation. However, always ensure that the curtains do not drape over
radiators.
Draughts
Try to ensure that draughts around doors, windows, letter boxes and keyholes
etc., are reduced by using a suitable draught excluder.
WARNING:
- Do not block or seal any air vents that are installed to ensure the central heating boiler (or other appliance) operate safely.
