Step 3 - Mount Manifold and Connect Expansion Vessel
•
Orientation of the manifold is optional, but the direction of flow must follow the
arrow on the manifold. The red handle is a service valve (boiling water isolation
lever) for future maintenance.
•
Position the boiling tank vertically beneath the tap so that the flexible hoses and
tap connector (black lead, 3.5 mm jack) can comfortably reach the tap and water
supply.
•
Choose desired location for manifold and mount using pipe clips (not supplied).
•
Select a suitable location for the expansion vessel, consider the reach of hose
labelled ‘manifold to exp vessel’ as well as the need to keep the vessel itself in an
upright orientation (fitting at the bottom).
•
Mount the expansion vessel bracket to the required surface using screw pack.
•
Attach the other end of hose labelled ‘manifold to exp vessel’ to expansion vessel
using 1 black washer.
•
Secure expansion vessel in place against bracket using metal band.
Step 4 - Connect Boiling Tank and Solo Tap
•
Remove red caps from inlet and outlet connections at the back of the boiling tank.
•
From offtake 2 of the manifold attach hose labelled ‘manifold to tank’ using 1 large
white washer. Connect remaining end to tank inlet using 1 small white washer.
•
Connect hose labelled ‘tank to tap’ to the tank outlet using 1 small white washer.
Connect other end to threaded boiling tap connection using 1 small white washer.
•
Connect the black lead tap connector which is attached to the tap to the back of
the tank. This is a 3.5 mm jack which connects just above the tank inlet and outlet.
