INSPECTION OF EQUIPMENT

Check the water heater and associated equipment for any damage. DO NOT INSTALL OR OPERATE ANY WATER HEATER THAT HAS BEEN DAMAGED. ANY ADDITIONAL DAMAGE OR FAULTS CAUSED BY UNAUTHORISED START UP MAY NOT BE COVERED BY WARRANTY.

WATER HEATER LOCATION

This water heater is supplied for outdoor installation only. For indoor installations the correct indoor conversion kit is required (refer to “Hood Conversion” on page 16). Whether located outdoor or indoor, the position of the water heater should be 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 pressure relief valve lever is accessible and the entire front panel and burner assembly can be removed for service. Remember you may have to remove the entire water heater later for servicing.

You must be able to read the information on the rating label.

The installation must comply with these installation instructions and with the requirements of AS/NZS 3500.4, AS/NZS 3000, AS 5601 and all local codes and regulatory authority requirements. In New Zealand, the installation must conform with NZS 5261 Code of Practice for Installation of Gas Burning Appliances and the New Zealand Building Code.

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.

The water heater must be mounted on a level fire proof base such as a concrete slab, concrete plinth, steel plate etc. Water heaters must NOT be installed on carpeting.

The front of the water heater must not be obstructed by any gas or water piping, electrical conduits, etc.

FIRE RESISTANT MATERIALS

Fire resistant materials should comply with the requirements of AS 5601 Appendix C. If in doubt, seek advice from your material supplier or your local regulator.

INDOOR INSTALLATION

The correct draft diverter must be fixed to the top of the water heater (Refer to “Hood Conversion” on page 16) and connected to a properly constructed flue, to discharge the combustion products outside the building. The flue must be self supporting and not impose a load on the water heater. Use a slip joint or similar to allow for disconnection and to enable the water heater top panel and draft diverter to be removed for servicing. There must be a vertical rise of 600 mm from the draught diverter before changing direction. The flue design and installation must comply with AS 5601.

NOTE: Reduction of the flue diameter or alteration to the draft diverter may void the water heater warranty.

The water heater is to be installed at ground or floor level and must stand vertically upright. There are also special requirements in AS 5601 for water heaters installed in a garage, an enclosed space and other locations. Remember all local authorities have regulations about putting water heaters into roof spaces.
