Requirements
.
•
Before starting installation the
WARNINGS
(page 3) and
CAUTIONS
(page 4)
should be read and fully understood.
•
It is recommended that the piping and water connection is carried out by a qualified
plumber.
•
Thoroughly flush the water supply pipes before installation to remove any water borne
debris.
• The electrical installation including earthing and cross bonding should comply with current
IEE regulations and any Local Authority requirements.
•
Zip Contract and Tudor water heaters must be installed according to the specification on
the rating plate and the technical specifications.
• Take care to protect the wiring from damage during installation and ensure that any
uninsulated wiring is not directly accessible after installation.
• For maintenance work an isolating valve should be installed in the water supply line to
the heater.
• A minimum clearance of 270mm is required underneath the overbasin heater units and
above the underbasin units to allow for the removal of the element plate assembly and for
servicing purposes.
• When considering the location of the heater, consideration should be given to the safe and
visible disposal of any water resulting from leaks and seepage.
Wall Mounting.
The unit will be supported by being hung on a bracket fixed to a support wall, using the
fixings provided (as shown fig.1).
Therefore it is important to ensure that the wall is strong and solid enough to fully support
the unit when full.
It is important to ensure when drilling the wall, that the selected position avoids any
pipework or electrical cabling.
To mount the heater, the bracket ‘hooks’ locate into the slots provided in the back of the
unit, allowing it to hang flat against the wall.
IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO REMOVE THE CASING TO MOUNT THE
WATER HEATER ON THE WALL BRACKET.
