CEILING INSTALLATION
Heater platform and clearances

The heater must be mounted on a platform to enable access for
servicing and maintenance.

Minimum clearances must be maintained around the heater as
shown.

A 600mm wide walkway must be provided from the ceiling
access point to the appliance.

Permanent artificial lighting must be provided at the appliance
with the switch adjacent to the access opening.

Check that the section of the roof in which the heater is to be
installed is capable of supporting the additional load of the
heater. Where possible, the heater should be mounted over a
load-bearing wall so that it is not being supported by the ceiling
joists alone.

Check that the heater does not cause deformation of any part of
the building structure.
Flue connection - TQ3, TQ4, TQM5, TQS3, TQS4

This heater must be flued using AGA approved 100 mm metal
flue pipe.

External joins - socket must face downwards. Internal joins -
socket must face upwards.

Socket joins must be adequately sealed - eg, Silastic 747 silicone
sealant.

Twin-wall metal flue must be used for any part of the flue that is
not readily accessible.

Twin-wall metal flue is recommended for flue exceeding 2m in
length.
Flue lengths: Flue bends:
- Maximum vertical: 4.8m - Maximum 2 x 90

Condensate drain tee assembly:
The flexible tube supplied as part of the condensate drain tee assembly is intended to prevent excessive strain of the condensate drain fittings when
fitting and securing the rigid PVC drain line. It is not designed to take the place of a 90
o
bend.
Seal remaining drain transit plug located on the opposite side of the heater to
condensate drain using silicone sealant or PVC primer and solvent cement.
