capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. For products sold in Europe, this appliance can be used
by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack
of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a
safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children.
This appliance is intended to be used in commercial applications.

Qualifications

If the power cable is damaged it must be repaired only by a qualified technician. To avoid hazards, all installation
procedures must be carried out by a suitably qualified tradesperson.

Venting

Occasionally steam and / or boiling water may discharge through a vent outlet or the tap. Ensure the tap body is
located so the tap outlet safely dispenses into the drip tray or sink bowl area, and that the vent is plumbed to a safe
location, see page 8.

Lifting

Take care when lifting. The Hydroboil may exceed safe lifting limits. If you feel this is beyond your personal
capabilities, please seek assistance with the lift. Do not lift the Hydroboil by the tap, fascia or any of its connections.
Refer to the Technical specification, page 5 for the weight of the product.

Positioning

It is important to ensure the Hydroboil is positioned in an accessible area. The Hydroboil must have it’s base
mounted in a horizontal position.

following

•

Review of all the technical specifications.

•

Ensure the mounting wall can support the product weight when full of water
(See Technical specification, page 5).

•

Sufficient space to install the Hydroboil and other components in accordance
with these installation instructions.

• Position the heater so there is at least 150 mm clearance above the heater
for service access, 65 mm to its left and 20 mm to its right – the tap nozzle is
usually positioned nominally 360 mm above a draining board, drip tray or sink
bowl area.

•

For under 3kW rated models Zip Hydroboil models user easy accessible 1 x 230V
AC 13A double pole isolation switch, or socket ( correctly rated for the appliance) is

that the stop cock will not be obstructed when the Hydroboil is installed.

• Vent / outlet drainage to a draining board, drip tray or sink bowl area

.

•

A wholesome cold water supply with a minimum working pressure of:
(see Technical specification, below min. / max. water supply pressure).

•

A 0.35 MPa (3.5 bar) pressure limiting valve supplied must be fitted if the incoming mains water pressure is
likely to exceed 0.5 MPa (5.0 bar).

•

The Hydroboil must be placed with its base in a horizontal position.

IMPORTANT!

Do not proceed with the installation if these requirements are not met.

Installation instructions

Before You Begin

• Locate the paper mounting-hole template packed with the Hydroboil. (Also see
pages 13, 14).

• Read the installation and operating instructions completely.

• Decide whether to install with concealed or exposed plumbing connections.

• Concealed connections are preferred for superior appearance.

Step 1 – Positioning

• Position the Hydroboil so the spout will drain onto a draining board or drip tray.

• Position the base of the tap nozzle to be not less than 280mm (nominally
360mm) above the draining board (height should be increased only if essential
for filling larger vessels).

• Provide clearance for service access of not less than 150mm top, 65
mm left, 20mm right.

• Mark corner positions for the Hydroboil on the wall in order to position the
paper mounting-hole template.

Step 2 – Fastening

• Position mounting-hole template on wall and drill holes where shown.

• Drill holes for water inlet and vent outlet if rear access is intended.

• Install plumbing and wiring and prepare pipe ends as shown adjacent & on
page 8.

• Remove cover fastening screws from Hydroboil and lift off cover.

• Screw Hydroboil chassis to the wall using screws or bolts suited to the wall,
(supplied).

• Fasteners must be able to support the product weight when full, (see
Technical specification, page 5).
