2.5 - Installation Requirements

2.5.1 - Location

•
The boiler must be located at least 300mm above any object
to allow the elements to be removed. At least 100mm is
required at the top of the boiler to allow for connection of
pipework.
•
10mm is required at the sides of the unit.
•
The boiler must be mounted on an internal solid masonry
wall capable of withstanding the weight of the product when
full of water.
•
Consideration should be given to the routing of electric cables
to the product and the wiring to a thermostat (if used).
•
The location must be free from frost and excessive moisture.

2.6 - Installation

2.6.1 - Main Unit

•
Once the location of the boiler has been selected,
mark the hole positions as per figure 6.1 below. Use
a spirit-level to ensure the holes are aligned
correctly. Access to the bottom screw hole is
achieved by removing the bottom element plate.
•
Once marked out, drill 8mm diameter holes and plug
with masonry plugs. Screw in high strength screws
to a depth that allows the inner face of the screw
head to protrude from the wall a distance to allow
the mounting plates at the rear of the boiler to
engage (approx 5mm).
•
With suitable equipment or an assistant raise the
boiler to the fixing point and ensure each screw has
engaged into the mounting slots. Tighten the screws
to secure the boiler to the wall.
•
Once fixed to the wall the boiler may be plumbed
into the central heating system.
