INSTALLATION

HIGH WIND CONDITIONS

In areas where high winds frequently occur, it WILL be necessary to:

Locate the water heater a minimum of one (1) metre away from high vertical walls.

Install a wind break to protect the water heater from the prevailing winds.

147 Models Only: Replace the standard flue terminal with a HIGH WIND top (at extra cost). A high wind top is not available for 109 models.

COLD WATER SUPPLY

Water Heating Applications

Where the cold water supply pressure exceeds that shown in the table below, an approved pressure limiting valve is required and should be fitted as shown in the installation diagram (refer to diagram on page 19).

Mechanical/Process Heating Applications

A cold water feed regulator (Pressure Reducing Valve) should be installed on the cold water make up line. The minimum water pressure should be as shown in the table below. Backflow prevention in accordance with AS/NZS 3500.1 may be required.
