Application notes
Please follow these pre-installation
instructions carefully. Failure to install your
HomeBoost
™
in accordance with these
instructions will invalidate your warranty.
1. Location of HomeBoost
™
The best possible location of the
HomeBoost
™ is on the cold water mains
supply to the house, by the mains stop tap
or the combi boiler inlet, depending on the
installation.
1.1 Cooling and ventilation
The HomeBoost ™ should be placed in a
position where there is adequate air flow to
cool the motor and separated from any other
appliances that generate heat.
1.2 Frost protection
HomeBoost ™ must be protected from frost
damage.
2. Cold supply to the
HomeBoost
™
HomeBoost ™ must be fitted directly to the
cold water mains house supply, or the mains
water inlet to the combi boiler as indicated in
the pre-installation checklist.
Never fit to communal risers (e.g. block of
flats), restrictive or collapsed supply pipework
(eg lead main) or secondary circuits that are
pumped.
3. General plumbing
Please note that the HomeBoost
™
is
designed to boost incoming water flow
under low pressure conditions. It cannot
overcome restricted incoming pipework
and replacement water pipes should be
installed in this scenario.
Installation must comply with the relevant
requirements or local byelaws.
It is recommended that HomeBoost
™ is
installed vertically, and every effort should
be made to accommodate this. However,
HomeBoost
™
will function correctly if
installed horizontally. It must be adequately
vented, protected from frost, and with access
provided for servicing.
Jointing compounds, Boss White, hemp and
steel wool MUST NOT BE USED. SOLDER
FLUXES MUST NOT COME INTO CONTACT
WITH THE PUMP. THIS WILL INVALIDATE
YOUR WARRANTY.
Your HomeBoost
™
is supplied with a fittings
kit to aid installation and servicing (see Fig 3)
Supplied inlet strainer must be fitted to the
inlet supply of the HomeBoost
™ .
All outlets which are located between the
mains stop tap and the HomeBoost
™
must
be protected by non-return valves. This is to
prevent backflow of water and air from these
outlets to the HomeBoost
™ , which will cause
damage to the pump.
Suitable for maximum inlet pressure of 1MPa
(10 bar).
In line with good plumbing practice and water
regulations, ensure that a non-return valve
has been fitted directly after the mains stop
tap to the house.
Earth continuity must be maintained with
4mm
2
earth connection cable.
