Standards and regulations
3.1.1 Boiler room
The boiler should be set up in a separate boiler room.
Ensure that there is a proper supply of fresh air for correct combustion.
Set up the boiler in the boiler room.
Because of the noise made by the fan motor and the combustion (about the same level
as in a modern oil-fired boiler), installing the Solo Innova close to a room where noise
may be a problem is not recommended.
Please observe the guidelines and the various national and local regulations.
Solo Innova boilers are designed and approved as heaters for hot water systems with
permissible outflow temperatures of up to 95°C.
3.1.2 Firing with wood
A large number of different gases is generated when wood burns. These gases constitute
the main part of the wood’s calorific value and contain formic and acetic acids. When
the boiler fan is running, the gases are mixed in the correct proportions with air of
combustion at high temperature. Combustion is then very efficient and soot-free, there
is optimal economy of combustion (high efficiency), and boiler life is preserved. At the
same time, the environment is best protected, as the tar and dust etc. content in the flue
gas is low.
Optimal and environmentally friendly burning of the wood requires mixing of the air of
combustion from the fan and gases from the fuel in the correct proportions. Fan
operation assumes that the boiler can always discharge its heat, and BAXI therefore
always recommends that the Solo Innova be connected to a BAXI buffer tank.

System types
3.2.1 Operation with buffer tank
BAXI recommends permanent connection of a BAXI buffer tank to the Solo Innova.
See system diagram Section 4.3.
This offers the following advantages:
The boiler can always discharge its heat.
Improved combustion, greater efficiency, lower fuel consumption.
Better environmental protection, less soot and tar build-up.
Longer boiler life.
Greater operating comfort. Firing occurs when required. The filling chamber can be
filled completely. The buffer tank provides the house with heating/hot water as
required.
3.2.2 Buffer tank size
BAXI supplies complete buffer tanks in sizes 500 and 750 litres, with and without built-
in hot water reservoir. Types 500 B and 750 B with hot water reservoirs are equipped
with two connections for installing electric heating elements. The buffer tanks are
heavily insulated with CFC-free polyurethane foam.
If buffer tank size is to be determined by ease of use and boiler operating conditions, a
minimum reservoir volume as specified in the table in Section 4 (Technical
specifications) is recommended.
BAXI will be happy to assist in calculating the reservoir size if a bigger buffer tank is
desired in order to cover heating and hot water requirements over a longer period.
3.2.3 Load valve
The guarantee is not valid unless a thermostatic load valve is installed (see Section 1.4.5
and the tables in Section 4.3).
