Installation options
The suggested installation options show how ThermoSphere Micro Electric Boilers, either single or tandem units, can
be fitted in bathrooms, kitchens, to heat pump systems and as a hot water supply to appliances or underfloor heating.
Please note that the location and installation of the unit is not limited to the options shown here.
NOTE:
When the TSMEB is connected to a washing machine or dishwasher with automatic on/off controlled inlet
valve, a water hammer arrestor must be mounted at the outlet of the TSMEB. This reduces the water hammer effect
during the automatic turning off of the water inlet valve of these appliances.
The TSMEB should preferably be installed in a vertical position on an internal wall, or in an internal cupboard or space.
Direct point of use
The most efficient way to install an TSMEB is as a
direct hot water feed at the point of use. This removes
the need to run cold water pipes and install mixer
taps, as the water comes out of the tap at the desired
temperature.
This type of installation reduces both plumbing
materials and labour. It also eliminates wasted water
and wasted energy by delivering water at the correct
temperature within seconds.
Point of use with cold feeds or mixer taps
TSMEBs can be installed to supply hot water to the hot
outlets or mixer taps in a bathroom.
The TSMEB is connected to the hot outlets and cold
water is connected to the cold outlets.
The user then mixes the hot and cold water as required.
In-line Heat pump backup heater
TSMEBs can be installed as an in-line backup heater
or give heat pump systems an extra boost in very
cold weather.
Underfloor heating hot water supply
TSMEBs can be installed as the hot water source for
wet electric underfloor heating systems.
