Page 3: Introduction
INTRODUCTION The Santon PremierPlus cylinder is a purpose designed unvented water heater. The unit has a stainless steel inner vessel, which ensures an excellent standard of corrosion resistance. The outer casing is a combination of resilient thermoplastic mouldings and plastic coated corrosion proofed steel sheet. All products are insulated with CFC free polyurethane foam to give good heat loss performance. -
Page 4: Water Supply
The higher the available pressure and flow rate the better the system performance. The PremierPlus cylinder has an operating pressure of 3.5 bar which is controlled by the cold water combination valve assembly. The cold water combination valve assembly can be connected to a maximum pressure of 16 bar. -
Page 5: Installation - General
A 22mm cold water supply is recommended, however, if a 15mm (1/2”) supply exists which provides sufficient flow, this may be used (although more flow noise may be experienced). A stopcock or servicing valve should be incorporated into the cold water supply to enable the PremierPlus cylinder and its associated controls to be isolated and serviced. - Page 6 SECONDARY CIRCULATION If secondary circulation is required it is recommended that it be connected to the PremierPlus cylinder as shown in Fig. 3, page 6 via a swept tee joint into the cold feed to the unit. A swept tee joint is available as an accessory (order code no. 94 970 033).

Page 8: Installation - Discharge
INSTALLATION - DISCHARGE It is a requirement of Building Regulation G3 that any discharge from an unvented system is conveyed to where it is visible, but will not cause danger to persons in or about the building. The tundish and discharge pipes should be fitted in accordance with the requirements and guidance notes of Building Regulation G3. - Page 9 Under no circumstances should the factory fitted temperature/pressure relief valve be removed other than by a competent person. To do so will invalidate any guarantee or claim. • The cold water combination valve assembly must be fitted on the PremierPlus water supply to the PremierPlus cylinder. •...

Open a hot tap furthest from the PremierPlus cylinder. • Open the PremierPlus stop cock to fill the unit. When water flows from the tap, allow to run for a few minutes to thoroughly flush through any residue, dirt or swarf, then close the tap. -
Page 16: Maintenance
MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS Unvented hot water systems have a continuing maintenance requirement in order to ensure safe working and optimum performance. It is essential that the relief valve(s) are periodically inspected and manually opened to ensure no blockage has occurred in the valves or discharge pipework. Similarly cleaning of the strainer element and replacement of the air in the expansion vessel will help to prevent possible operational faults. -
Page 17: User Instructions
DO NOT TURN OFF ANY WATER SUPPLY. CONTACT A COMPETENT INSTALLER FOR UNVENTED WATER HEATERS TO CHECK THE SYSTEM. DO NOT TAMPER WITH ANY OF THE SAFETY VALVES FITTED TO THE PREMIERPLUS SYSTEM. IF A FAULT IS SUSPECTED CONTACT A COMPETENT INSTALLER. -
