through a door of 2,320mm high. Without
packaging it can go through a door
1,970mm high.
Remove nails fi xing crate sides to the base. Re-
move nails from one end of the crate. Remove end

APPLIANCE LOCATION
The location selected for installation of the appli-
ance must allow the provision of a satisfactory fl ue,
an adequate air supply (for type B
be well illuminated. A purpose built plant room or
compartment is strongly recommended.
If a purpose built plant room is not available, meas-
ures should be taken to protect the appliance from
damage and prevent any extraneous matter from
being stored on or around the Heater. See BS 6644
Clauses 4, 5 and 6 for details. Any combustible ma-
terial adjacent to the appliance must be so placed
and shielded as to ensure that it's temperature
does not exceed 66ºC (150ºF).
There must be easy access to the plant room and
boiler at all times. The appliance must be located in
an area where leakage from the tank, water con-
nections or the combined temperature and pres-
sure safety valve will not result in damage to the
area adjacent to it. When such locations cannot
be avoided, a suitable drain tray must be installed
under the Heater. The drain tray must be no deeper
than 38mm and must be 100mm wider and longer
than the boiler. It should be piped to an adequate
drain using 20mm (0.75in) diameter pipe, angled
for proper drainage.
Access must be provided to the front of the boiler
with adequate clearance for servicing and opera-
tion.
