Descaling

Periodic descaling is recommended and is dependent on the hardness of the water. We
recommend a descaling procedure be carried out every 3 to 6 months in hard water areas
and 12-24 months in soft water areas.
NOTE: This procedure involves the partial dismantling of the appliance and should only be
carried out by a factory trained service provider. Failure to have the appliance correctly
serviced, by an authorised service provider, may affect the product's warranty.

Installation Requirements

Before installing, ensure that the following are available:
a) Sufficient space to position the heater so there is at least 150 mm
clearance above the heater for service access, 65 mm to its left and
20 mm to its right – the tap outlet usually should be positioned at least
200 mm above a draining board or drip tray.
b) Standard local requirement power cable positioned as shown on the paper mounting
template for connection from the rear of the heater to the terminal block within the heater,
this will require an isolating switch fitted in the fixed wiring and attached to a secure
surface. This switch must provide all pole disconnection and a contact separation of at least
3mm installed in accordance with the wiring rules. Alternatively a standard 220-240V, 10
amp general purpose outlet, within 1500 mm of the Hydroboil Unit.
NOTE: When installed with a plug and cord the plug must be accessible
c) Cold water supply with a minimum working pressure of 70 kPa and a maximum
working pressure of 700 kPa connected via an isolation valve.
d) Outlet drainage to a sink draining board or to a drip tray.
e) Access to drainage from a vent situated at the base of the heater.
f) In all installation instances the walls of the heater must be vertical and the base
horizontal, there can be no exceptions to this rule.
Note: If the water pressure is likely to exceed 7 bar, a 3.5 bar pressure reducing valve must
be installed in the cold water supply line.
