Installation Installation Introduction The law requires that installation is carried out by a properly qualified person Install in accordance with current British Standard Code of Practice 342 part 2 and British Standards 5440, 5546, 6644, 6700, 6798 and 6891. Location The location chosen for the heater must permit the provision of a satisfactory flue and an adequate air supply.
Installation Fig. 2 • Total flue length should not exceed 8M for either vertical (a) or horizontal (b) applications. Size 20/190 • Appropriate flue length reductions should be made for each 45° & 90° bend in the system. • All horizontal runs should be adequately supported and maintain a 3°...
Installation Air Supply Detailed recommendations for air supply are given in BS 5440 part 2. The following notes are intended to give general guidance: Where the heater is to be installed in a room or internal space the heater requires the room or internal space containing it to have a permanent air vent.
Installation Important The supply of air to a space housing the heater(s) by mechanical means should be:- a) Mechanical inlet with natural extraction. b) Mechanical inlet with mechanical extraction. NB - Natural inlet with mechanical extraction must not be used. Where a mechanical inlet and mechanical extraction system is used, the design extraction rate must not exceed one third of the design inlet rate.
This problem can be minimised by reducing the water temperature in the heater and by fitting suitable water pre- treatment equipment. Note When installing Andrews Water Heaters in hard water areas we would recommend that a water treatment specialist is consulted. 7708252 120819 Issue 8.1...
Installation Water Connections - General 3.8.1 Hydrojet System Fig. 4 The heater is fitted with the Hydrojet Total Performance System incorporated in the cold inlet dip tube. The tube is designed to increase turbulence and reduce sediment build up, reduce thermal stacking and increase delivery.
Fig. 7 Unvented Systems should be fitted by an Approved Installer. When used in an unvented system, the Andrews Water Heater will supply hot water at a pressure of 3.5bar (50.8lbf/in provided that this pressure is available at the mains feed. During...
Installation Condensate Drain Connection This is a condensing water heater and requires a drain to allow the condensate to discharge safely. If a drain is not in close proximity, a condensate pump may be required to pump the condensate to the closest drain. A self-priming trap is integrated in the condensate/pressure tube, allowing the connection to the ½”...
Installation 3.10 Gas Connections THE APPLIANCE MUST ONLY BE USED WITH NATURAL GAS. The installation of the gas supply should conform to the requirements of IM/16 published by British Gas p.l.c. or BS 6891. Jointing compound used must conform to BS 5292 pt 5. Caution Do not apply heat in close proximity to the gas control as this will result in damage occurring to the control.
Commissioning Commissioning 20/190 4.1.1 To Light the Burner Caution Do not operate the water heater until the storage vessel is completely filled with water, with water running from all hot taps. Open the main gas supply valve after all connections to the gas control valve are complete, and test all connections with leak spray.
Commissioning Users Safety Guide Note For your safety read before lighting the appliance Warning 1. Always follow manufacturers instructions when lighting the appliance. Failure to do so may result in damage to property, personal injury or loss of life. 2. Before lighting check all round the appliance area for gas.
(ECO). In the event of high water temperature the gas supply will be shut off automatically. The high temperature condition must be identified and rectified before the heater is relit. See Section 7 (fault finding). Note If in doubt contact Andrews Water Heaters 7708252 120819 Issue 8.1...
Operation Burner flame check Steel Burner: These models are equipped with self-adjusting air mixture and do not have an adjustable air shutter. At the time of installation and during annual maintenance, a visual check of the pilot and burner flames should be made to determine if they are burning properly.
Operation Temperature selection procedure For energy efficient operation of your water heater, the suggested initial temperature setting is 60°C. Warning If the water heater display does not show ‘Operational’ in the ‘Status’ indicator, there may be an operating malfunction with the water heater. If this is the case, a numeric code will be displayed.

Servicing 5. Annually remove the inner door and main burner assembly to clean orifices and related parts of any dirt or other foreign material. Inspect the burner ports for obstructions or debris and clean with a wire brush as needed. Wire brush and/or vacuum clean the combustion chamber as needed to remove scale deposits and debris.
Page 32
Servicing Servicing Burner Assembly 6.2.1 The burner assembly should be cleaned and checked annually 1. Move the gas service cock to "OFF". Isolate from the electrical supply. Unhook and remove the outer door. 2. Disconnect from the bottom of the gas control valve, the pilot tube, and disconnect all wires from gas valve.
