STORAGE TANK AND GAS BOOSTER ASSEMBLY

43

Installing the Pipe Cover

To install the pipe cover under the gas booster to cover the pipe work and fittings:

1.

Position the pipe cover (10) under the gas booster (3), aligning the sides of the pipe cover with the sides
of the gas booster.

The front of the pipe cover fits behind the front skirt of the gas booster. The top flanges of the pipe cover
have holes to accommodate the screws on the underside of the gas booster. This enables the pipe cover
to fit snugly against the underside of the gas booster.

2.

Secure the pipe cover (10) to the solar storage tank with two screws (11) on each side at the top and
bottom of the side flanges of the pipe cover. Use the screws provided.
