Installation
Install only on an external wall, as close as possible to the most frequently used hot
tap. Use a heat shield (accessory item part number 9 708 061 400) if the unit is to be installed
on a combustible surface. Allow minimum air gap of 10 mm between the flue and the heat
shield, (refer figure 2).
Ensure that the flue terminal is clear of any combustible material, and avoid
installation in a marine environment.
Install the appliance such that the base of the appliance is not more than 1.3 metres
and not less than 0.5 meters from the ground, and allow for easy access to service heater.

A gas cock must be installed in the gas supply line with provision to disconnect the
appliance. Install gate valve or full flow ball valve (fixed mechanism type) in cold water supply.
A non return valve must not be fitted. For example duo valve
We recommend that all hot water pipes be lagged if the runs are long or exposed,
and water-proof lagging should be used on all external hot water pipes. If the water supply
pressure exceeds 80% of the specified maximum, install a pressure limiting valve.
If installing a pressure limiting valve fit a cold expansion valve between the limiting valve and
the appliance. PLV = 500kPa Cold expansion = 700kPa
Refer to AG 601 and AS3500.1 for the relevant pipe size.
NOTE: Service calls for incorrect pipe sizing will NOT be covered under warranty.
Water Filter
If sludge or foreign matter is or may be present in the water supply, it is
recommended that a suitable filter be incorporated in the water supply line to the heater. All
pipes should be well flushed before connection is made.
A water filter/strainer is installed in the inlet of the brass water valve inside the appliance.
