The installer is the person responsible for installing the unit. The installer must comply with the following

instructions:

– Read and follow all instructions supplied with the unit.

– Carry out installation in accordance with the applicable standards and specifications.

– Explain to the operator how the system works.

– Make the operator aware of his obligation to inspect and maintain the unit.

– Hand over all operating instructions to the operator.

1.1.3 Operator’s obligations

To ensure that the unit gives optimum service, the operator must follow these instructions:

– Read and follow the instructions in the operating manual.

– Installation and commissioning must be performed by appropriately qualified technicians.

– Make sure the installer explains how the system works.

1. Important information for system operators

1.3 Sources of danger

1.3.1 Fire protection

The entire system must comply with technical fire protection requirements in accordance with the applicable

regulations, standards and guidelines.

All flammable materials in the close vicinity of the pellet central heating boiler for living areas must be protected

against the effects of heat, in particular in the area of the front window.

Attention!

Do not drape clothing or other items over the FireWIN for drying them.

Do not touch the front window – danger of burns.

1.2 Safety precautions

The boiler and related accessories are state of the art and meet all applicable safety regulations and operate

using 230 V AC electrical current. Improper installation or repair can pose the danger of life-threatening electrical

shock. Installation may be performed only by appropriately qualified technicians.

Caution symbols

Please take careful note of the following symbols in this Operating Manual.

Attention!

Ignoring the warnings identified can lead to personal injury.

Information!

Ignoring the warnings identified can lead to malfunction of, or damage to the boiler or heating system.

Note!

The blocks of text highlighted provide information and tips for operation.

1.3.2 Power failure (or if the blower is not running)

Attention!

Do not open the combustion chamber door, there is an increased risk of deflagration when opening

the combustion chamber door. A self-test is performed following a power failure during combustion

and then operation is continued automatically.

1.3.3 Burner pot

Attention!

Never fill the burner pot with pellets by hand. Excessive combustion material in the burner pot means

that the pellets will not be ignited optimally. Too much low temperature carburisation gas will be gene-

rated and this can lead to deflagration.

1. Important information for system operators

1.3.4 Entering the pellet storage room, storage container

All energy sources are subject to safety regulations which must be observed when working with fuels, heating

systems and storage rooms. This also applies to the storage of pellets.

After the storage room is filled, odourless carbon monoxide (CO) may be produced and there may be insuffici-

entoxygen. For this reason, do not enter the pellet storage room for 6 weeks after it has been filled. Only trained

persons may enter the storage room for the purpose of measuring gas levels.

Please also follow the instructions on the sticker:

– No access to unauthorised persons, keep children away from the pellet store!

– Ensure sufficient ventilation before entering. Keep the door open while inside.

– Only enter the storage room under the supervision of a second person standing outside.

– No smoking, flames or other sources of ignition are permitted.

– Risk of injury from moving parts.

– Pellet boilers must be switched off at least 15 minutes before filling.

– Fill in accordance with the instructions of the boiler and pellet suppliers.

– Protect pellets from damp.

If you feel unwell, leave the storage room immediately and seek medical advice.

Attention!

Do not attempt to enter an unaired storage room (particularly buried tanks).

1.4 Fuel

To ensure that your new heating system provides long-term reliable service, the following must be observed:

Quality of pellets must be in accordance with EN 14961-2 A1:

The quality of the pellets is an important factor in achieving optimum operation of the heating system. When

buying pellets, make sure that they meet the quality standards of EN 14961-2 A1 (or ÖNORM M7135 / DINplus).

For maximum reliability, source pellets from manufacturers with EN-Plus certification (or DIN-Plus, ÖNORM

M7135 or UZ38), as they are required to perform ongoing internal quality control.

Make your pellet supplier aware of these quality requirements before ordering and seek confirmation upon de-

livery.

Consequences of quality fluctuations:

Pellets are 100% unprocessed wood, so minor fluctuations in fuel quality are normal and reflect the natural ori-

gins of the material. These quality fluctuations affect the level of dirt, the ash content and therefore the cleaning

intervals.

A reduction in cleaning intervals due to fluctuations in pellet quality cannot be remedied as part of a repair under

guarantee!

required by the guarantee limitations and undertaken by Windhager Customer Service or a customer service

partner will guarantee the optimal use and service life of your boiler system. This is the only way to assure the

benefits of this technologically advanced boiler and guarantee safe, environmentally friendly and energy-saving

system operation.

The following preconditions must be met before you order the initial start-up:

1.) Boiler installed correctly.

2.) System fully wired up electrically.

3.) System rinsed, filled and vented – heat consumption must be possible.

4.) Boiler connected to domestic water and filled.

5.) Sufficient quantity of fuel available (pellets, split logs, oil or gas).

6.) The customer must be present during start-up.

The initial start-up cannot be carried out if any of these points are neglected. The customer will be charged for

any unnecessary costs arising as a result.

Start-up and maintenance by Windhager Customer Service or a customer service partner are part of the gua-

rantee requirements of the enclosed “guarantee limitations”.

Note!

During the first few weeks after start-up, condensation can occur in the combustion chamber, ash pan

and on the heating surfaces. This has no effect on the function and service life of the boiler.

1.6 Functional test

EN 12828 and ÖNORM B8131 require that the function of the system and related safety equipment be checked

and certified yearly by a qualified technician (installer, heating system contractor).

At two-year intervals, the heating water condition must be checked (ÖNORM H 5195-1 Expenditure 2010) by a

heating expert (installer) (see FireWIN installation instructions – Heating water); this is to prevent corrosion and

sediment accumulation in the heating system and boiler.

In the event of repair work requiring a change of water in the heating system, the heating water is to be checked

within 4 to 6 weeks after such work.

Corrosion and sediment resulting from improper heating water are not covered by the guarantee and warranty.

Pressing one of the six buttons firstly switches just the lighting and display on. The boiler is only switched off

when the button is pressed for the 2nd time. Wait until burnout mode has finished (not indicated on the display)

and open the combustion chamber doors.

During filling, negative pressure is created in the pellet store and this can cause burn-back in the pellet boiler.

Therefore, the boiler must be stopped from operating during the filling procedure.

Every storage room fill should be documented by adding the date and volume to the „Storage room fill“ sticker –

Fig. 3.

Attention!

The pellet boiler must be switched off correctly at least 15 minutes before the store is filled –

Fig.2. Press the ON/OFF button. Never switch off using the emergency OFF switch!

1.7 Filling the pellet store

1.8 Operating noises

The FireWIN is a modern, fully automated pellet central heating boiler for living areas with a high level of con-

venience in terms of operation and cleaning. This automation means that operating noises may occur during

normal operation.

Normal operating noises are:

Flame noises – Natural flame noise can be heard depending on the size of the flames.

Light scratching and scraping noises – Depending on the level of contamination, cleaning noises may occur

during automated cleaning or shake-out. If these become louder over time èClean the pellet central heating

boiler, especially the burner pot.

Trickling of pellets and vacuum cleaner noise – Fully automated pellet supply involves pellets being sucked

from the storage room into the reserve supply container. During filling, the suction turbine generates a „vacuum

cleaner noise“ in the storage room and the feed hose, and the trickling of the pellets can be heard in the reserve

supply container.

Clicking noises – The relays switch on or off when the control unit is installed.

Liquid noise, gurgling – This is caused by air in the heating water èBleed the system.

Air induction noises – Air induction noise occurs at the air supply induction point for combustion (air opening in

the device) èFor information on routing the induction point through air supply pipes and into an adjacent room

or about a form of operation that is independent of the room air, see the FireWIN assembly instructions.

Auger conveyor noise – During operation, the drive motor for the auger conveyor may emit low-level intermittent noises.

Note!

Due to these operating and flame noises, we do not recommend installing the device in bedrooms or

quiet rooms – see also the information in the FireWIN „Assembly instructions“.

2. Operation

2.1 Functional description, function elements and operating

controls

The FireWIN pellet central heating boiler for living areas and the Modular Energy System MES or the REG stan-

dard control combine to form a perfect unit. The FireWIN automatically fires when the control system signals a

heating requirement. Following „purging“ (safety function), ignition starts and the pellet metering auger switches

on. The burner pot is automatically filled with pellets. When flame formation has been detected (by the thermo-

control sensor), the boiler enters flame stabilisation mode and then control mode (modulation mode) and keeps to

the specified boiler temperature setpoint (between 60 °C and 75 °C). The boiler enters burnout mode if the output

drops below the minimum nominal thermal output or no heating requirement is signalled by the control system.

The blower continues to run until the burner pot has cooled down. Therefore, do not switch off the electricity sup-

ply to the device too soon.

2.1.1 FireWIN Klassik

The reserve supply container is loaded by hand. The heating surfaces are cleaned manually using the cleaning

lever. The cleaning residues from the heating surfaces and the combustion residues from the burner pot drop into

the ash pan or ash pan space.

2.1.2 FireWIN Premium

Version as FireWIN Klassik, but in addition with fully automated pellet feed

The pellet feed uses a maintenance-free suction turbine to fill the FireWIN reserve supply container fully automa-

tically with pellets from a pellet storage room or storage container. The pellet feed is switched on by the lower fill

level switch (proximity switch) in the reserve supply container or at the end of the enable time or the beginning of

the start time, and runs for as long as the reserve supply container is full. Filling is not started if the boiler is in

heating operation or the feed has been blocked by the control unit (outside the enable time, e.g. at night). If the

boiler is operating when filling is necessary, the boiler switches to burnout mode.

Switching between suction probes 1, 2 and 3 is a fully automatic process. The system changes to the next suction

probe after the reserve supply container has been filled a certain number of times. This means the storage room

is emptied as evenly as possible.
