Placement of New Tank
Step 2
• The water heater must be installed
outdoors, close to the most
frequently used hot water outlet.
• Optimum installation location is on
the warmest side of house.
• The location must consider noise
impact on living areas. Avoid
positioning near bedrooms or
neighbours' bedrooms. Although the
running noise level is very low (51
dB(A)) it can be expected that the
heat pump will run during the night.
• Adequate access must be available
to the relief valve and anodes.
• Safely position the new unit on a
level surface in accordance with all
plumbing and building regulations.
• A properly drained overflow tray
must be used where property
damage could occur from water
spillage. (See AS/NZS3500.4.2 for
further details.)
Note: The warranty does not
cover consequential damage
due to leakage of the water
heater.
