FITTING THE BULKHEAD
Route the heated water pipe to the outlet
position and push on the fittings as shown in
Fig.16
. Connect the heated water pipe to a ½”
BSP x 15mm female thread elbow or straight
coupler compression fitting
(Fig.19)
.
Note:
This fitting is not supplied as variations
in installations requires selection of the most
suitable fitting.
Screw the supplied male-thread connector into
the female fitting
(Fig.20)
using PTFE tape to
give a watertight joint.
Note:
The male-thread connector supplied has
a shoulder. If fitting into a flush wall, make an
additional 8 mm allowance for this shoulder at
the finished surface. The connector can be cut
to size if required.
The threaded connector should protrude from
the wall surface between 8 mm and 13 mm.
Make good the wall.
The bulkhead and its cover are supplied
assembled. Separate the two halves by carefully
prising apart at the smaller of the two elbow
apertures.
Secure the elbow to the bulkhead body with the
three screws supplied
(Fig.21)
.
Screw the bulkhead assembly onto the threaded
connector temporarily. Mark the position of the
two fixing holes
(Fig.22)
securing the bulkhead
to the wall.
Note:
If screw thread protrudes too far out of
the wall, it can be be cut to the correct length
using a hacksaw.
Unscrew and remove the bulkhead assembly.
Check the location of the pipe in the wall before
drilling.
