Things to note before Installation
Heater installation
Country specific regulations shall be followed in any installation. The warranty of products is valid only in installations
that are done according to this manual. Wallas recommends that the device be installed by an authorized Wallas
service shop or professional installer.
Selecting the installation location
The device shall be installed into a dry space in a protected location. The device must be mounted to a solid surface.
When installing, please note that the device needs to be removable for servicing. Connections and location should be
made so that the device can be easily disconnected for removal. For maintenance, it is recommend to
leave
at least
50mm (2")
empty space below the heater for
access
.
The heater should be installed vertically level when the boat is on an even keel. The static inclination must not exceed
5°. While the device will tolerate being temporarily tilted to a steep angle (even for some hours), the burner will not yield
optimal performance if it is constantly inclined.
Select the place of installation to allow a minimum amount of bending in the warm air ducting. Avoid installing the
heater and control panel in the immediate vicinity of any potential water intrusion. If possible, install the control panel on
a vertical surface.
Installation of pipes, hoses and cables
Power cables, warm air and fuel hoses must be protected in locations where they are susceptible to mechanical
damage due to sharp edges or heat. All cables and hoses should have a fluid precluding "drip loop" to prevent water or
other fluids from following wires or hoses to the heater.
Installation space
The device can be installed within the heated space or outside of it. If located in an unheated area, heating
performance can be improved by installing the an intake air tube to the heated space (warm return air). If located inside
the heated area, air refreshing performance can be improved by installing the an intake air tube to the outside air (cold,
dry fresh air to be heated). A blend of return air and fresh air for makeup air is usually optimal.
It's forbidden to install the heater to a space which may contain gasoline fumes!
