COOLER LOCATION
Ensure the location is a minimum of: 3m from a solid fuel heater flue, 1.5m
from a gas flue, 5m from a sewer vent.
Check the proposed cooler location, to ensure that it is structurally capable of
supporting the weight of the cooler, or provide an adequate alternate load bearing
structure.
Always locate the cooler where it will receive a plentiful supply of fresh air. Not in a
recess where it may be starved for air or where the air is polluted.
Allow adequate access around the cooler for maintenance. Provision must be
made for access to electricity, water supplies and drains.
The ideal location for the cooler is in a central position on the roof (away from
sleeping areas and where people spend most of their time) so that the duct runs are
of approximately the same length.
Carefully consider neighbouring residences and noise levels when locating the
cooler, if necessary talk to the customer and the neighbours before carrying out the
installation.
Note! Do you need to discuss the installation of items like safety anchor
points or access with the customer?
The 550mm x 550mm dropper duct must have a raw edge or safe edge at the top.
Do not turn in a flange as this will interfere with the transition and weatherdamper.
Remove the transition and flash the dropper carefully, so there is no chance of any water
entering the roof space.
MOUNTING THE DROPPER
Cut the 50mm diameter cable exit hole in the dropper then fit and screw the cable
grommet into position (Fig 6). Locate the hole so that the cables will not interfere with the
fully opened weatherdamper.
Fit the transition temporarily to the dropper (Fig 9 page 6), then locate the dropper into
position. Use a spirit level to ensure the top of the transition is level.
Important!
The dropper must be securely fixed to the roof structure on at least 3 sides (Fig 7).
This may require the addition of some extra structural timber.
The dropper must never sit directly onto any ceiling joists or beams, as there may
be associated noise transfer, causing problems after installation, including
possible ceiling damage.
