GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
'Minimum' water supply pressures in Table 1 must be supplied. The water heaters will operate at lower pressures
but will not achieve the rated flow.
•
Water chemistry and impurity limits are detailed in the separate Warranty booklet. Most metropolitan water
supplies fall within the requirements. If you are unsure about your local water quality, contact your water authority.
If sludge or foreign matter is present in the water supply, a suitable filter or strainer should be incorporated in the
water supply to the water heater.
HOT WATER DELIVERY TEMPERATURE
•
The delivery temperature set point programmed into
the electronic ignition and control module is 60°C.
The actual delivery temperature may be lower
depending on the prevailing operating conditions, for
example, low incoming cold water temperature and
high water flow rate.
•
Local regulations and/or the requirements of AS/NZS
3500 must be considered regarding the temperature
limitations of hot water supplied to areas used
primarily for personal hygiene. The temperature of
water to these areas may be limited to 50ºC or less.
This can be achieved by the use of a Temperature
Limiting Device (TLD). Installation with a TLD is to be
in accordance with the diagram right.
MOUNTING THE APPLIANCE
•
See Table 1, (Specification table) for individual appliance weights. The wall or structure on which the units are to
be mounted must be capable of supporting these weights and the associated pipe-work.
•
Ensure that suitable fixing screws or bolts are used to secure the unit to the wall; in accordance with AS/NZS
5601.Wooden plugs shall not be used.
•
Figure 2. page 13 shows the position of the mounting holes on the back panel of the appliance
•
The appliance can be mounted directly against the wall or structure. There is no need to use, non combustible
sheeting or leave an air gap between the appliance back panel and the wall or structure for the purposes of
meeting the temperature hazard requirements of AS/NZS 5601.
SERVICE CONNECTION POINTS
Propane
Gas
See Table 1, (Specification table) for individual appliance connection / fitting dimensions.
That these dimensions are NOT an indication of the pipe sizes required.
NOTE
•
An approved full flow isolation valve and disconnection union MUST be fitted to the cold water inlet.
•
A non return valve is not required unless required by local regulations. Isolation valves must not be fitted directly
to the appliance.
•
Purge gas and cold water supply lines to remove air and swarf before final connection of the appliance. Swarf in
either the gas or water supplies may cause damage or malfuntion. These are not covered by warranty.
