• These instructions will guide you through the installation, maintenance and use of the Zip
Aquapoint, however, if you require any further information please call Zip customer service
on 0345 6 005 005.
• The Zip Aquapoint is an unvented water heater designed for connection directly to
incoming mains water supply and can serve one or more outlets using conventional
taps.
• Care should be taken that the unit being chosen can meet the demands of the outlets
being supplied.
• The casing is constructed of powder coated steel and heat losses are minimised by the
high efficiency polyurethane foam insulation.
• The inner vessel is constructed from glass enamelled steel sheet and pressure tested to
1.2 MPa (12 bar).
• A manually resettable safety cut out automatically cuts off the electrical supply to the
heating element in the event of a malfunction.
•
A sacrificial magnesium anode is fitted to the vessel to provide anti-corrosion protection for
the vessel and the heating element.
• Gradual erosion of the anode will occur depending on local conditions and in extreme
cases, conditions may cause rapid erosion resulting in particles being deposited as a
residue or emitted from the heater.
• The Aquapoint should not therefore, be used in applications where the quality of the water
is paramount. Regular preventative maintenance inspections are vital to achieve optimum
performance and durability of the Aquapoint.
• The condition of the anode should be checked regularly by an authorised Zip service
provider as part of the preventative maintenance programme.
• If the hot water system is not used for two weeks or more, it is recommended that a hot
tap be turned on for several minutes at a sink, basin or bath, it is not recommended that
either a dishwasher, clothes washer or other appliance be used before the heater is
returned to service.
• The Aquapoint must be installed in accordance with these instructions and all current
legislation, codes of practice and regulations governing the installation of unvented hot
water cylinders in force at the time of installation.
• Please contact Zip Customer Service for advice on 0345 6 005 005.
