Application
This product is a boiling water device intended for domestic use only.
Important note:
The heating tank is suitable for water at a supply
pressure between Minimum 1.5 BAR (23psi) and Maximum 5 BAR (75psi).
A suitable pressure reducing valve can be purchased from any plumbers
merchant or online at
www.frankefilterflow.co.uk
Safety
This product must be installed by a qualified installer in strict
accordance with the instructions and comply with local Water Supply
Regulations and safety standards.
Children, or users with a physical or mental disability, should not use
this tap unless they have received sufficient instructions about its
operation from a person responsible for their safety. Children must
never be allowed to play with the appliance.
The Minerva is a built-in domestic electrical appliance. The boiler is fitted
with an electrical lead terminating with a 3 pin fused plug for plugging
into the 13amp domestic electricity supply. It is important to use a
conveniently located socket with a built in switch that can be easily
accessed to switch off and isolate the boiler at any time.
The heater must only be connected to the 230V mains electricity supply
through either an earthed independent wall socket in the ring main or via
a fused spur.
The maximum consumptive power of the unit is 1500 watts.
Always shut off the mains water stopcock before installation.
Never lift the heater tank by the flexible connector hoses.
The power must only be connected POST installation and once the tank
has been completely filled with water and vented.
Always disconnect the power to your heater before you close the
mains stopcock. Restore power to the heater after the mains stopcock
has been opened.
Filter maintenance
The water filter supplied with this unit is designed to keep the heater
tank free of limescale, to protect the tank from aggressive soft water
and to prevent taste problems associated with chlorine.
Important note:
The filter cartridge must be changed at least annually
to maintain its efficiency. Neglecting to change the cartridge at regular
intervals may invalidate your warranty. Please refer to the separate
filter maintenance guide for information relating to the filter unit and
instructions for replacing the filter cartridge.
Important information relating to the plastic housing
Plastic is susceptible to UV light degradation and may become brittle
over time. As a precaution the filter housing should be replaced every
10 years.
Do not under any circumstances: allow the housing to come into
contact with solvents, household cleaners and sprays or a naked flame.
Sensible precautions
If you are planning to leave the premises for an extended period (eg. on
holiday) it is a sensible precaution to turn off both the electricity supply
to the boiler and the water supply to the filter.
Installation sequence
Before you begin installation
Important note:
Check the mains water pressure. It must not be
below 1.5 BAR (measured during a high demand period), or above 5
BAR (measured during a low demand period). If the pressure exceeds
5 BAR a pressure reducing device must be fitted. A suitable pressure
reducing valve can be purchased at www.frankefilterflow.co.uk
Take into account the space required for the Inlet Pressure Relief
Valve and Tundish, Waste T-piece and the Filter Set, making sure
there is convenient access for routine filter cartridge changes and
servicing the tank.
The unit must be installed in a frost free environment.
Ensure there is sufficient ventilation for the tank to avoid
overheating. If you feel that the ventilation is inadequate drill some
holes in a suitable position at the top and bottom of the cupboard
panels. Normally lack of ventilation is less of an issue when the tank
is installed behind the plinth (kick-space).
Identify and mark the hot and cold water pipes.
Mark this on the tap inlet and on the water pipe.
Shut off the mains water supply.
Switch off the mains electrical supply.
