When choosing the location of the Infinity hot water package the following should be taken
into account.
1. The cylinder has a necessary clearance of 100mm to the back and sides, 600mm to the front, and
200mm above.
2. The water heaters should mount on a wall or suitable framework as near as possible to the storage
cylinder to minimise pipe work losses.
3. There are internal and external water heaters so there are options available in locating the water
heaters. The cylinders must be mounted indoors.
4. There must be enough gas available for the entire load of the water heaters.
5. There must be water and electric available.
6. The floor must be strong enough to support the full weight of the cylinder when full.
7. There should be enough room and lighting to service the units.
8. If the heaters are at high level, or access is by means of a ladder, there should be a ladder or
scaffolding available onsite at all times.
9. There must be suitable drainage available so that if there was a leak at any time from the heaters
or cylinder, including a leak of hot water, it would not cause damage to the building, furnishings, or
inhabitants.
10. There must be a suitable place when using internal units to get the flues out of the building in a
safe manner.
