Connect the heated water pipe to a ½” BSP 
x 15 mm female thread elbow or straight 
coupler compression fitting

 

(Fig.25)

.

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.26)

 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.27)

.

Screw the bulkhead assembly onto the 
threaded connector temporarily. Mark the 
position of the two fixing holes 

(Fig.28)

 

securing the bulkhead to the wall. 

Note: 

If screw thread protrudes too far 

out of the wall, it can 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.
