8.0 General Information 

 

8.1 Delivery and Handling  

The FireSAFE unit is supplied from the factory on a wooden pallet suitable for handling 
by forklift equipment.  

  
The weight and size of the FireSAFE unit may require the use of proprietary lifting equipment 

in order to be handled safely. Please observe the weight indicated on the box label before 
selecting lifting method. 

The weight of the unit can also be found in the Product range – Weights section.

 

 

8.2 Delivery Inspection upon Receipt 
The FireSAFE unit should be immediately unpacked and inspected.  
Any damage must be reported to the supplier within seven days in writing.  

  

   It is important that these installation and operating instructions are studied carefully 

before any installation takes place.  The installation and operation should also be in 
accordance with local regulations and accepted codes of practice.  

 

   

   Under no circumstances should the unit be operated until correctly installed in the 

system pipework and ensure that the Controller box cover and Product cover are secured in 
their appropriate positions.    

  

8.3 Warranty 

 

1. 

The Grundfos warranty covers all defects within the FireSAFE originating from faulty 
workmanship and/or materials for a period of two years from the date of installation or 
thirty months from the date of despatch from the factory, whichever is the shorter.   

2. 

The warranty covers the replacement of any faulty parts and our labour cost to replace the 
faulty parts.  It does not cover the cost of removing, returning and refitting the FireSAFE unit 
or any secondary losses arising from the failure.  

3. 

Under no circumstances should faulty equipment be dismantled.  Failure to comply with this 
instruction could invalidate the warranty.  

4. 

Defects arising from incorrect installation, water containing debris, or harmful chemicals, 
inadequate electrical protection, faulty ancillary equipment, lightning or other circumstances 
beyond our control, are not covered by the warranty.  
 

8.4 Site Storage 
It is strongly recommended once the FireSAFE unit has been delivered to site, that it is placed 

immediately into a dust, moisture and frost-free area which has been secured to prevent 
unauthorised interference.  If this is not possible then the unit should be stored in an area 
which is as near as possible to the ideal storage conditions as described above.
