Introduction
These heaters are primarily intended for installation directly onto a wall at high level.
They must not be installed in bathrooms or other high humidity areas. Please contact us
on 01245 324900 for details of products suitable for these applications.
These heaters are designed for use on standard two-pipe pumped central heating system
with a maximum water temperature of 86° C and a maximum pressure of 6 bar
(88lbs/in²).
Pipes are 22mm and either pipe may be used as flow or return.
These heaters are classified as a fixed appliances and electrical connection should be via
a 3A fused spur. The fused spur must not be directly below the heater but should be
accessible after completion of the installation. All heaters must be earthed.
We recommend the use of full-flow isolating valves. The valves should be accessible after
completion of the installation. We also advise the fitting of an air vent at the highest point
on either the flow or return pipe to remove any air trapped within the system.
To avoid the possibility of vibration these units must be fitted on a flat even surface.
To conform to Building Regulations Part L (Part J in Scotland), a remote room thermostat
can be used in conjunction with this heater. Refer to the instructions supplied with the
thermostat. For further details please contact our Technical Support on 01245 324560.
Please note the guarantee may be invalidated if this product is not installed
and used in accordance with these instructions.
Installation Guide
1. Remove the front access cover using the supplied keys.

How a fan convector works
Fan convectors include an internal water temperature thermostat that prevents the fan
from operating until the central heating system water passing through the heat
exchanger reaches 42°C. This prevents cooler air being circulated at start up.
Heating – see diagram
Ensure your central heating system is ON. Switch on the heater (the neon switch will
illuminate). Set the thermostat control (if fitted) to the desired temperature. Set the heat
output switch to the medium output setting. Providing the water temperature in the
central heating system is more than 42°C and the thermostat (if fitted) is calling for heat
the product will switch on. If you require a faster warm up move the heat output switch
to boost. When the room reaches the desired temperature you may move the heat
output switch to low.
Warning.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of appliance
by person or persons responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard. (Refer EN 60335-1 & EN 60335-2-30
clauses 7.12 & 7.12.5)
Please note in the event of an engineer’s visit, Smith’s Environmental Products Ltd reserve the
rights to apply a call-out charge should the fault prove to be with the system or installation
and not the heater appliance.

Hot water from your central heating
system passes through the heat
exchanger transferring its heat to the
aluminium fins. Cooler air is drawn in by
the fan and is heated as it passes over
the heat exchanger beforebeing expelled
gently back into the room. This not only
gives a more even temperature spread
but will heat a room up in less than the
time of a traditional steel panel radiator.
