Ferroli
The part
Replace the condensate siphon on Ferroli Modena 32C for D5 / F1 pressure faults after a hard frost or heavy servicing schedule.
Isolate safely
Isolate, drop the case front. Undo the siphon quick-release clip on Ferroli Modena 32C, tip out old fluid.
Fit and commission
Prime the new siphon with 250 mL clean water before refitting — dry siphons throw immediate flue-pressure faults.
Recommission checklist
Refill the Ferroli Modena 32C to 1.2 bar cold. Bleed high-point radiators and the internal AAV.
Run a full flue-gas analysis after 15 minutes. Log the reading against the OEM commissioning envelope in the Benchmark book.
