INSTALLATION

WATER HEATER LOCATION
The water heater should be installed close to the most frequently used outlet
and its position chosen with safety and service in mind. Make sure people
(particularly children) will not touch the flue outlet. The flue terminal must be
clear of obstructions and shrubbery.
Clearance
must be allowed for
servicing of the water heater. The
water heater must be accessible
without the use of a ladder or scaffold.
Make sure the temperature pressure
relief valve lever is accessible and the
access cover, top panel and burner
can be removed for service.
If possible leave headroom of one
water heater height so the anode can
be inspected or replaced. Remember
you may have to remove the entire
water heater later for servicing.
The water heater is to be installed at ground or floor level on a stable fireproof
base as acceptable to local authorities. The water heater must also stand
vertically upright with the back of the water heater
against or within 25 mm of
an external wall or alternatively against a fireproof screen extending at least
500 mm above, below and either side the flue terminal. Failure to observe this
precaution can cause problems in high wind areas.
A secondary flue is not required.
It is a requirement of AS 5601 and AS/NZS 5601.1 to secure the water heater
to the wall. The top of the unit is to be secured to the wall or screen with the
wall brackets provided using fasteners suitable for the wall or screen type and
application. Refer to
“Wall Brackets”
on page 24.
The water heater must not be installed in an area with a corrosive atmosphere
where chemicals are stored or where aerosol propellants are released.
Remember the air may be safe to breathe, but when it goes through a flame,
chemical changes take place which may attack the water heater.
