Ravenheat

The part

Replace the condensate siphon on Ravenheat CSI Primary 85T 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 Ravenheat CSI Primary 85T, 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 Ravenheat CSI Primary 85T 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.
