Before you begin
1. Check the mains water pressure. The pressure must not be
below 1.5 BAR (22 psi) or above 5 BAR (73psi), measured
during a low demand period – (mid-morning or mid-afternoon).
If the pressure exceeds 5 BAR a pressure reducing valve must
be installed in the cold mains supply to protect both the boiler
and the water filter housing. The optimum pressure is 3 bar
(44psi
).
A suitable pressure reducing valve can be purchased at
www.frankefilterflow.co.uk.
2. The unit must be installed in a frost free environment.
3. Ensure that the cabinet is well ventilated. If in doubt it is
advisable to improve the circulation of air by drilling some holes
in the top and bottom of the rear panel.
4. Be careful when making the various connections to the
mains water stop valve and the boiler. Do not be tempted to
over-tighten the connections. It is only necessary to firmly
hand tighten the nuts using the patented NutRunna
®
plastic
tightening devices provided to make a secure watertight seal.
5. Locate the existing hot and cold water supply pipes.
6. Shut off the mains water supply.
7. Switch off the mains electricity supply at the socket.
safety
take note:
Boiling water is potentially dangerous. It is the
responsibility of the owner to take sensible precautions
when operating the boiling water function of the Omni Tap
and to instruct other family members and other new users
to operate it safely.
The installation must be carried out by a suitably qualified
professional in strict accordance with the instructions
provided and comply with the UK Water Supply (Water
Fittings) Regulations 1999 and safety standards.
• If a new electrical power supply is required you must seek
the services of a qualified electrician.
• The boiler must only be connected to the 230V mains
electricity supply through either an earthed independent
wall socket or a fused spur. It is advisable to check the
circuit to establish whether or not the addition of an
Omni will overload the circuit.
important note:
The
boiler should not be fitted on the same electrical supply
line with other appliances that require a constant power
supply such as a fridge/freezer.
• The boiler is fitted with an electrical lead terminating
in a fused plug for connection to the 230 volt 13 amp
domestic electricity supply. It is important to use a
socket with a built in switch and position it to provide
convenient access to switch off the boiler.
• The electrical lead or plug must not be modified in any
way.
• Turn off the mains water supply before commencing
installation.
• Never lift the boiler by the braided flexible hoses.
• The power to the boiler must only be switched on once
the installation is complete and the tank is full of water.
• Always turn off the electricity supply to the boiler before
you close the mains stop valve. Restore power to the
boiler after the mains stop valve has been opened.
• Young people and potentially vulnerable users must be
instructed how to operate the boiling water function
safely by a responsible adult.
• Refit the red plastic safety clip to the boiling water lever
after use.
• This is a domestic appliance and must not be installed in
a commercial environment.
