INSTALLATION 

21 

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  front  cover  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 level on a concrete or brick plinth 
or  other  fireproof  base  as  approved  by  the  local  authority.  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 water heater must be secured to the wall or screen using the 
brackets provided. 
 
Kits  are  available  to  enable the  water  heater  to  be  installed  partially  recessed 
into an external wall. 
 
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.
