l This MYSON KICKSPACE

®

fan convector is designed for
installation in the cavity beneath kitchen cupboards on the
vacant floor space, or other similar locations.

l For KICKSPACE

®

500, 600, 600-12V & 800 a minimum of
25mm clear headroom is required above the top of the
KICKSPACE

®

when fitted.

l The unit should be mounted on a clean and level floor area

under the cupboard base.

l KICKSPACE

®

80S & 80D models can only be installed if there
is a minimum height of 80mm from the top of the floor
covering to the underside of the kitchen unit (see Fig. 1).

l KICKSPACE

®

500, 600, 600-12V & 500 floor mounting (see

Fig. 2a) - The KICKSPACE

®

is normally fitted directly onto the

floor and the base of the unit is fitted with four mounting feet.

l KICKSPACE

®

500, 600, 600-12V & 500 plinth mounting

(see Fig. 2b) -

• As an alternative to floor mounting the unit may be fitted
into the plinth.

• A suitable support must be securely fitted to the floor.

• The top of the support must be level with the lower edge of
the cut-out when fitted.

l KICKSPACE

®

80S & 80D floor mountings (see fig. 2c) - Applies

to 80S & 80D units in 80mm plinth height kitchen unit.

l Decide the position of the KICKSPACE

®

, mark out and cut the

plinth to the dimensions using table on page 6.

l Position the KICKSPACE

®

under the cupboard in the required

location, with the front edge just behind the line of the plinth.

storage of perishable goods in the cupboard above.

3.0 Water Connection

l The KICKSPACE®should only be used on closed circulation,

two pipe, pump assisted central heating systems.

l For optimum fan convector heating performance the system

must be capable of providing sufficient hot water through the
heat exchanger. This means that:

1. The minimum pipe size from boiler to fan convector must
be at least 15mm. Microbore pipe MUST NOT be used.

2. Where the unit is fitted on to a system with other emitters
a separate circuit for the fan convector should be
considered to provide adequate water flow.

3. The system water temperature on the return of the
KICKSPACE

®

must be above 43°C for the fan to switch on.

4. This unit is NOT suitable for one-pipe systems.

5. Optimum performance will require effective balancing of

the whole system.

6. This unit must not be used to replace a radiator in an
existing system unless an adequate flow of water can be
guaranteed.

l Connect valve ends of the flexible pipes to the KICKSPACE

®

.

Note: The direction of the arrows on the valves are not
significant in this application (see Fig. 4).

l Open valves fully, check pipe connections for leaks and vent

the heat exchanger. A vent screw is provided to vent the heat
exchanger.

Pipework must be positioned correctly to ensure
flexible hoses are not kinked when installed
(see Figs. 5a & 5b). Only use the hose sets
supplied with this unit. Do not use old or
alternative hose sets.
