INSTALLATION – WATER HEATER

As a guide the following requirements extracted from the Australian Gas Installations Standard AS 5601,

must be observed.

At least 300 mm between the top of the flue terminal and the eaves.

At least 300 mm horizontally between the flue terminal

and the edge of any opening into the building,

measured horizontally.

At least 300 mm between the flue terminal and a

return wall or external corner, measured horizontally

along the wall.

At least 1500 mm below any openable window.

At least 1500 mm between the flue terminal and any

opening into a building, in the direction of the flue

discharge.

At least 500 mm between the flue terminal and a

fence, wall or other obstruction, in the direction of the

flue discharge.

PIPE COVER

The pipe work to the water heater can be housed within a pipe cover. A pipe cover kit (PN 299848) is

available for such an installation. Refer to the installation instructions which accompany the pipe cover kit.

RECESS INSTALLATION

The water heater can be installed recessed into a wall. A recess box (PN 299849) is available for such an

installation. An additional rating label is supplied with the water heater. This must be placed on either the

front panel of the water heater or to another position which is visible when the water heater is installed. Refer

to the installation instructions which accompany the recess box kit for information on its installation.

FROST PROTECTION

The water heater has a frost protection system. The frost protection system will protect the water heater from

damage, by preventing ice forming in the waterways of the water heater, in the event of freezing conditions

occurring.

The frost protection system will be rendered inoperable if electrical power is not available at the water heater.

Damage to the water heater caused by freezing of the pipe work to or from the water heater is not covered

under warranty. Refer to AS/NZS 3500.4 for precautions to be taken for installations in frost prone areas.

The water heater is not suitable for installation in areas where the ambient temperature falls below -20ºC

(including wind chill factor).

The cold water line to the water heater must be insulated with suitable thickness insulation if freezing

conditions are likely to occur. The insulation must be fitted to the underside of the water heater and be

weatherproof and UV resistant if exposed.
