Mounting the water heater and tank

ATER HEATER MOUNTING
Before mounting and installing the water heater the following connections should be considered:
•
Flue gas system and the flue gas pipe connections
•
Air supply system and connections
•
‘Cold in’ and ‘hot out’ pipe connection
•
Condensate and pressure relief valve drainage
•
Power supply (preferably the power connection is positioned above the water heater)
•
Gas pipe.
All lines/piping must be mounted free of tension. The weight of all the installation components should be
supported separately from the water heater so there will be no standing force on the connections.
This might influence the mounting position of the water heater.
Determine the position of the flow and return pipes by using the included suspension bracket or a suspension
frame (when supplied).
While marking the holes, ensure that the suspension bracket or frame is perpendicular and the water heater
does not lean forward. If necessary adjust the position with the adjusting bolts at the lower rear side of the back
panel (see drawing). When the adjusting bolts aren’t sufficient, fill the gap behind the bolts to get the water heater
in position. The exact water heater position lies between the water heater hanging level and hanging slightly back-
wards.
The water heater should not lean forward in the mounted position.
Lock the suspension bracket with the security cover before making any other connections to the water heater. This
security cover will prevent the water heater from falling off the bracket. Don't use excessive force during the mount-
ing of the water heater connections.

ANK POSITIONING
The tank can be placed at will

on a stable floor, but not too far from the water heater(s). See § 9.6, ‘Interconnecting
pipes – equivalent length’, on page 49.
*
NB! This floor must be able to hold the weight of the water filled tank(s).
