2 Please read carefully
Read through these instructions completely before commencing installation.
The HPM Single Lamp Instant Heat is designed for installation in the
ceilings of toilets and bathrooms where heat is required. The appliance
is fitted with a plug and lead for ease of installation. Two or more Instant
Heats may be required for larger bathrooms.
The infrared lamps heat by direct radiation rather than by heating the air in
the room, so the Instant Heat should be located directly over the drying area.
Instant Heat must not be installed where there is a possibility of water
splashing on to the lamps. Locate in accordance with the requirements of
the Australian/New Zealand Wiring Rules AS/NZS 3000 relating to damp
situations. This means that no part may be located directly above any part
of the bath or shower recess or enclosure. For unenclosed showers refer to
Wiring Rules conditions.
A minimum volume of 1m
3
is required around each Instant Heat to prevent
build-up of heat. Additional Instant Heats may be placed side-by-side if at
least 1m clearance between them is observed.
All wiring must be carried out by a licensed electrician.
3 Location
The Instant Heat is for ceiling mounting
only, with the lowest point to be at least 2.2
metres above floor level. It is not intended to
be installed in wardrobes or within 300mm
of sides of walls, as per Figure 1. There is a
danger of combustion if placed too close to
curtains or other flammable materials.
4 Ceiling preparation and installation
The clearances between Instant Heat and adjacent building members
shown in Figure 2 shall be observed. Thermal insulation or similar material
shall not be placed on top of the unit, and adjacent material to the side
shall be kept clear to a minimum distance of 150mm (Fig 3).
Joists, beams and rafters shall not be cut or notched to install Instant Heat.
After determining the location of Instant Heat use the template to mark out
and cut the aperture (Fig 4).
5 Fixing to ceiling
Remove all packaging before installation.
Remove fascia and lamp. Check that
power to the circuit has been isolated
before connecting plug to mains supply.
Push the Instant Heat body into the
opening, ensuring the retractable clips do
not catch on the hole cutout. Once fully
recessed, push in the 3 clips and use a
screwdriver to tighten.
6 Final assembly
Refasten the fascia cover which is designed to snap onto the housing flange
sitting flush against the ceiling. Insert the lamp into the socket, tightening
well to ensure good electrical contact and long life. Wipe the fascia and the
bulbs clean. Reconnect the power from the mains and test.
7 Wiring
The Instant Heat may be dimmed for variable heat output. The recommended
dimmer is Excel Life Cat EM700TR.
Wall switches/controls should be located in a position that is not within reach
of a person in the bath or shower.
