INSTALLATION
WALL MOUNTING (refer to diagram A).
The unit is designed to be wall mounted and must be fitted at least one metre above the
highest draw-off point thus ensuring a good flow. It is important that sufficient clear
a
nce is
allowed to ensure access to the ball valve assembly.
The wall fixing points will accept 8mm bolts which should not be less than 50mm in length.
ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE WALL IS SUFFICIENTLY STRONG TO CARRY THE WEIGHT
OF THE UNIT WHEN IT IS FULL OF WATER.
PIPEWORK CONNECTIONS (refer to Diagram B).
The installation must conform to all local authority byelaws. The cold water supply and warning
pipe (overflow) assembly can be connected to either side of the unit. The respective apertures
are pre-formed in the outer case and these should be used as guides for cutting through the
cold water tank. A 22mm hole is required for the inlet and a 27mm hole for the
warning
pipe.
An isolating valve must be fitted to the cold water mains supply to allow for servicing.
FITTING TO THE COLD WATER TANK (refer to Diagram C).
The HYCO Apollo series of water heaters are supplied with all the components that are required
to comply with the WRC bylaw 30. The arrangement of these should conform to Diagram C.
The filter and breather assembly is a push snap-fit connection and should be fitted to the lid in
the aperture provided.
The warning pipe assembly (overflow) has three components. The threaded elbow (tank
connector) is inserted through the hole that has been cut, and tightened with the nut and
sealing washer on the inside of the tank.
The 90
o
bend internal “dip tube” is pushed firmly into the connector facing downwards. The
warning pipe (overflow) screen is located securley into the downwards external connection of
the connector.
The ball valve assembly is fitted as required, adjusting the float to ensure that the water level
in the tank does not exceed the water level line.
NOTE: after installation, replace lid and secure with the retaining screw supplied.
