8.2 Extreme cold weather
In certain instances where the condensate pipe work is run externally or
in an unheated area, such as a garage, the condensate pipe work can be
at risk of freezing, even if well insulated.
A frozen/blocked condensate pipe will cause the boiler to shut down.
Worcester, Bosch Group have available helpful videos on thawing frozen
condensate pipe work on our website in the Customer service section.
WARNING:
Falling hazard!
Failure to follow this guidance may result in personal injury.
▶ Only attempt to thaw a condensate pipe that is at ground level and
easily accessible.
▶ Never attempt to thaw a condensate pipe that is at height.
CAUTION:
Risk of damage to pipe work!
Thermal shock from boiling water can damage plastic pipes.
▶DO NOT use boiling water to thaw the condensate pipe!
CAUTION:
Slip hazard
▶ Ensure that the subsequent freezing of any water does not result in a
slip hazard
If the condensate pipe has frozen:
▶ Locate the blockage.
– It is likely that the pipe is frozen at the most exposed point outside
the building or where there is an obstruction to flow. This could be
the open end of the pipe, at a bend or elbow, or where there is a
sag in the pipe in which condensate can collect.
– The location of the blockage should be identified as closely as
possible before taking further action.
▶ Thaw the frozen pipe.
– The pipe can be thawed by applying a hot water bottle, a
microwaveable heating pack (the sort used for muscular aches
and pains) or a cloth soaked in hot water to the exterior of the
pipe, close to the point of blockage.
– Hot water, but not boiling, can also be poured onto the pipe from
a watering can or similar container.
– Care must be taken at pedestrian areas where this water may
freeze and create a slip hazard.
▶ Worcester, Bosch Group have available on our website helpful videos
in the Customer service section to aid in thawing a frozen pipe.
▶ Reset the appliance and wait two or three minutes for the appliance
to restart.
▶ Contact Worcester, Bosch Group Appointments Team on:
0330 123 9339, if the boiler does not restart.
▶ Contact your installer in order to find a permanent solution to the
problem.

Packaging
Where packaging is concerned, we participate in country-specific
recycling processes that ensure optimum recycling.
All of our packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be
recycled.
Used appliances
Used appliances contain valuable materials that can be recycled.
The various assemblies can be easily dismantled. Synthetic materials are
marked accordingly. Assemblies can therefore be sorted by composition
and passed on for recycling or disposal.
Old electrical and electronic appliances
This symbol indicates that the product must not be
disposed of with other waste, but be taken to the waste
collection centers for treatment, collection, recycling and
disposal procedure.
The symbol applies to countries with electronic waste
regulations, for example the European Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment Directive 2012/19/EU. These regulations determine the
framework for the return and recycling of used electronic appliances as
applicable within each country.
As electronic equipment may contain hazardous substances, it needs to
be recycled responsibly in order to minimize any potential harm to the
environment and human health. Furthermore, recycling of your
electronic waste will help to conserve natural resources.

electrical and electronic equipment, please contact the relevant local
authorities, your household waste disposal service or the retailer where
