The cylinder is a purpose designed unvented water 

heater. The  unit  has  a  stainless  steel  inner  vessel, 

which  ensures  an  excellent  standard  of  corrosion 

resistance.  The  outer  casing  is  a  combination  of 

resilient thermoplastic mouldings and plastic coated 

corrosion  proofed  steel  sheet. All  products  are 

insulated  with  CFC  free  polyurethane  foam  to  give 

good heat loss performance. (see Table 06, page 19)

The unit is supplied complete with all the necessary 

safety and control devices needed to allow connection 

to  the  cold  water  mains. All  these  components  are 

preset and not adjustable.

This appliance complies with the requirements of the 

CE marking directive and is Kiwa approved to show 

compliance with Building Regulations (Section G3).

The following instructions are offered as a guide to 

installation which must be carried out by a competent 

plumbing  and  electrical  installer  in  accordance  with 

Building  Regulation  G3,  The  Building  Standards 

(Scotland)  Regulations  1990,  or  The  Building 

Regulations (Northern Ireland). 

NOTE: Prior to installation the unit should be stored 

in an upright position in an area free from excessive 

damp or humidity.

THE 

BENCHMARK SCHEME

Benchmark places responsibilities on both manufactur

-

ers and installers. The purpose is to ensure that cus

-

tomers are provided with the correct equipment for their 

needs, that it is installed, commissioned and serviced 

in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions by 

competent persons and that it meets the requirements 

of the appropriate Building Regulations and relevant 

electrical qualifications. The Benchmark Checklist 

can be used to demonstrate compliance with Building 

Regulations and should be provided to the customer 

for future reference.  Installers are required to carry 

out installation, commissioning and servicing work in 

accordance with the Benchmark Code of Practice which 

is available from the Heating and Hotwater Industry 

Council who manage and promote the Scheme. Visit
