WARNING !
READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLING THE UNIT
All un-vented water heating systems above 15 litres (this includes the ESP Ecocent Hot Water ASHPs)
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. This Ecocent unit must be installed and operated
in accordance with EN 806.
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.
