AccuBoost unit thermal protection:
- The AccuBoost has an operating ambient temperature range of 4°C to 49°C.
- If installed in a loft area, garage, outbuilding or any position where temperatures may fall
below 4°C or rise above 49°C thermal protection must be provided.
- There is a possibility that the sun or other appliances that generate heat could warm the
water within the pressure vessel. This should be considered when choosing a location for
the AccuBoost unit.
- The AccuBoost range of products are designed for use with cold mains water only.
- The AccuBoost units are capable of a maximum water temperature of 35°C and a
minimum of 4°C. The cold water should be stored and distributed below 20°C to prevent
Legionella growth.

Ventilation:
-
Ensure adequate airflow to cool the motor. Ideally, leave 100mm air gap around the pump.
- The AccuBoost unit and pump should be positioned away from other appliances that
generate heat.
Loading/support:
- The AccuBoost unit should be installed on a smooth, flat, level surface so that the pressure
vessel is vertical.
- The base of the unit should be fully supported across the entire base to ensure maximum
stability and safe loading. Refer to Figure 5
- The floor/mounting surface must be able to withstand the maximum full weight of the
AccuBoost unit (please refer to the technical specification for the weights of each unit).
Additional supports should be added to the support surface if required.
