INSTALLATION METHOD

1. Preparation of opening in brickwork:

Height 1030–1050mm, width 382–412mm and depth 150mm.

The box can either be tted as the brickwork is being laid using
the fold out brick ties (A) to secure the box, or in an existing
wall. For an existing wall, provide an opening in the brickwork
to the above dimensions and x the box in place by drilling
holes in the sides and xing in position with suitable ush­headed masonry anchors.

2. The gas, cold water inlet and hot water outlet pipes can be
brought through the pipe entry holes panel of the box (B) in
the bottom.

IMPORTANT

The Rinnai water heater serial number and model
number on the data plate located on the left hand side
of the appliance, MUST be copied to the sticker on
the inside of the access panel (C). The serial number
is needed for any warranty or service work.

3. The Rinnai water heater can now be mounted in the recess
box via the top and bottom heater securing points.

Slide the Rinnai upper water heater stainless steel mounting
bracket through the top of securing slot (D) by guiding the
mounting bracket through the slot cut-out on the top of the
recess box.

Lower the unit so that the keyhole slots in the lower stainless
steel mounting bracket are securely resting on the two bottom
threaded studs E and over the padlock tab (F).

Hold the Rinnai water heater in place and t the two 5mm nuts
to each of the threaded studs (E) so that the bottom mounting
bracket on the water heater is held rmly to the back panel of
the box.

4. Make the gas and water connections to the water heater. On
completion check for gas escapes and water leaks.

5. Use silicone to seal the pipe entry holes and seal between
the bottom, side and back panels to ensure that no water can
enter the wall cavity. The bottom panel of the box is designed
with a 2° slope towards the front allowing any water that enters
the enclosure to drain out.

6. To help reduce the risk of theft or damage, attach the supplied
padlock to the padlock tab (F) as required.
