WARNING !
READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLING THE
UNIT.
All un-vented water heating systems above 15 litres (this includes the ESP Ec o c e n t
Hot Water ASHP’s) MUST be installed to meet the requirements of the local area
Building Regulations. It is a legal requirement that the local Building Control Officer
be notified of any proposed installation of un-vented water heating systems over 15
litre capacity.
Furthermore, it must be fitted by an installer who has successfully completed a
recognised course in the installation of un-vented heating systems such as CITB and
be familiar with installing the Ecocent unit. Failure to properly fit the unit may affect
its safety, efficiency and invalidate any guarantee.
Safety requirements in the UK call for an expansion space (internal or external),
safety devices to prevent the stored water exceeding 100°C, and pipe work to convey
discharged hot water safely away from the safety devices.
THE UNIT MUST BE INSTALLED, COMMISSIONED AND MAINTAINED BY A COMPETENT
INSTALLER IN ACCORDANCE WITH BUILDING REGULATION G3 (ENGLAND AND WALES),
TECHNICAL STANDARD P3 (SCOTLAND) OR BUILDING REGULATION P5 (NORTHERN
IRELAND) AND THE WATER FITTING REGULATIONS (ENGLAND AND WALES) OR WATER
BYELAWS (SCOTLAND). FOLLOWING INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING, THE
OPERATION OF THE UNIT SHOULD BE EXPLAINED TO THE USER AND THESE
INSTRUCTIONS LEFT WITH THEM FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
