Installation - Rheem 701 Owner's Manual And Installation Instructions

LOCATION
This boiling water unit is suitable for indoor installation only.
INSTALLATION STANDARDS
The boiling water unit must be installed:
by a qualified person, and
in accordance with the installation instructions, and
in compliance with Standards AS/NZS 3500.4, AS/NZS 3000 and all local codes
and regulatory authority requirements.
In New Zealand, the installation must also conform to Clause G12 of the New
Zealand Building Code.
BOILING WATER UNIT APPLICATION
If this BWU is to be used where an uninterrupted boiling water supply is necessary
for the application or business, then there should be redundancy within the building.
This should ensure the continuity of boiling water supply in the event that this boiling
water unit was to become inoperable for any reason. We recommend you provide
advice to the system owner about their needs and the buildings backup redundancy.
OPENING THE UNIT
The jacket is removed from all models, by undoing the 4 retaining screws at the top
and bottom of the jacket, and pulling the jacket forward.
MINIMUM CLEARANCES
For ventilation reasons, all units require a minimum clearance of 50mm on all sides.
For ease of servicing (where there is sufficient space) Rheem recommend 300mm
clearance from the top of all units. For element replacement reasons Rheem
recommend clearance of 150mm from the right hand side of 3 to 10 litre units and
300mm from the left hand side of the 15 to 40 litre units. Rheem recommend a
minimum clearance of 400mm measured from the underside of the BWU jacket to
any sink bench.
MOUNTING
The BWU when installed is suspended from mounting screws located into keyhole
slots at the back of the BWU (refer to Dimension & Mounting Specification on page
27).
Be sure that the mounting screws are securely inserted into the keyhole slots. The
screws MUST be anchored in such a way, that they will hold the weight of the unit
when filled with water, (refer to the specifications table on page 26).
