These instructions will guide you through the installation, maintenance and use of the
Zip Aquapoint III, however, if you require any further information please call Zip customer
service on 0845 6 005 005.
• The Zip Aquapoint III is an unvented water heater designed for connection directly to
incoming mains water supply and can serve one or more outlets using conventional
taps.
• Care should be taken that the unit being chosen can meet the demands of the outlets
being supplied.
• The casing is constructed of impact resistant plastic and heat losses are minimised by
the high efficiency polyurethane foam insulation.
• The inner vessel is constructed from glass enamelled steel sheet and pressure tested to
1.2 MPa (12 bar).
• A manually resettable safety cut out automatically cuts off the electrical supply to the
heating element in the event of a malfunction.
•
A sacrificial magnesium anode is fitted to the vessel to provide anti-corrosion protection
for the vessel and the heating element.
Description
Gradual erosion of the anode will occur depending on local conditions and in extreme
cases, conditions may cause rapid erosion resulting in particles being deposited as a
residue or emitted from the heater.
The Aquapoint III should not therefore, be used in applications where the quality of the
water is paramount. Regular preventative maintenance inspections are vital to achieve
optimum performance and durability of the appliance.
The condition of the anode should be checked regularly by an authorised Zip service
provider as part of the preventative maintenance programme.
If the hot water system is not used for two weeks or more, it is recommended
that a hot tap be turned on for several minutes at a sink, basin or bath, it is not
recommended that either a dishwasher, clothes washer or other appliance be used
before the heater is returned to service.
