10.2 Vaillant
warranty
Vaillant provide a full parts and labour warranty for this
appliance.
The appliance must be installed by a suitably competent
person in accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation
and Use) Regulations 1998, and the manufacturer’s in-
structions. In the UK ‘CORGI’ registered installers under-
take the work in compliance with safe and satisfactory
standards.
All unvented domestic hot water cylinders must be in-
stalled by a competent person to the prevailing building
regulations at the time of installation (G3).
Terms and conditions apply to the warranty, details of
which can be found on the warranty registration card in-
cluded with this appliance.
Failure to install and commission this appliance in com-
pliance with the manufacturer’s instructions may invali-
date the warranty (this does not affect the customer’s
statutory rights).
11 Recycling
and
disposal
Recycling and disposal are already taken into account
during the development of all Vaillant products. Vail-
lant’s standards lay down strict requirements.
The recyclability, demountability and separability of ma-
terials and components are taken into account for the
selection of materials in the same way as environmental
hazards and health risks during recycling and the dis-
posal of unavoidable remains of unusable residue.
11.1 Appliance
The Vaillant boiler consists up to 92 % of metallic
materials which can be melted down again in steel and
smelting works and can as a result be reused almost
without limitation.
The EPS (Styropor)® EPP used for insulating the cylin-
der and other components can be recycled and is
CFC-free.
The plastics used are marked, so that they are ready for
sorting and unmixed separation of the materials during
recycling.
11.2 Packaging
Vaillant has reduced the transport packaging of the ap-
pliance to the necessary minimum. The potential for re-
cycling is consistently borne in mind when selecting the
packing materials.
The high-quality cardboard packaging materials have
been in demand as secondary raw materials in the card-
board and paper industry for a long time.
EPS and EPP (polystyrene)® are used to protect the
products during transport. EPS is recyclable and
CFC-free.
Even the films and tightening bands are made of recy-
clable plastic.
