PARTS SUPPLIED

INSTALLING WITHIN A BATHROOM

If the appliance is to be fitted within a bathroom, a good understanding of the zoning within bathrooms is required to ensure the unit is mounted in a safe position. The appliance is rated as IPX4 and should be installed outside of Zones 0 -2. We would advise when the unit is fitted within a bathroom, the plug is removed from the unit, and a suitable fused spur is installed in accordance with BS 7671. In addition, when used in a bathroom, it must be protected by a suitable RCD to prevent the risk of electric shock.

2.25m above the floor
Zone 2:| The area stretching to 0.6m outside the bath or shower and

above the bath or shower if over 2.25m

INSTALLATION OF HEATING ELEMENT

IMPORTANT: Before drilling, ensure that no wires or pipelines are behind the wall to prevent damage.
IMPORTANT: This heater is heavy. Two people are recommended for installation.

Your new heater comes with 2 heating elements for separate heating. These two elements can work independently of eachother. To link both elements and have them work as one unit, please see page 15. First ensure that you have all the correct parts needed for installation of the heating element:

• Heating Element x2
• PTFE Tape
• Spanner

• The heating element is designed to be fitted into the bottom of the unit and can be fitted into either the left or right port. Before installing, decide on the location where your heater will be mounted, take care to ensure that the element will be accessible and that the power cord can reach a suitable socket when your heater is mounted to the wall.
• Wrap the provided PTFE tape around the thread of the heating element, ensuring the full thread is covered.
• Then carefully turn the heater on its side with the port you have chosen for installation facing upwards. This allows for easy installation of the element and prevents the possible leakage of Glycol.
• Remove the locking nut from the port using the provided spanner and keep safe for future installation.
• Gently insert the element into the port and screw into place. Ensure that the control panel is facing the front of the unit before installing onto the wall.

WALL MOUNTING

NOTE : Depending on your wall type alternative fixings may be required to secure the heater to your wall.

Step 1| Measure the distance between the two columns that you will be hanging your heater from on the top of the heater and the two ends on the bottom of the rail. Then measure the distance vertically between the top and bottom holes. Make a note of the measurement, and mark four points on the wall that distance apart. Use a spirit level to ensure that they are level.
---|---
Step 2| Drill 4 holes into the wall where you have marked using a Ø10mm drill bit and insert the wall plugs provided.

Secure the brackets to the wall using the screws provided with the grooves all facing upward, then insert the bracket covers onto the grooves.

Ensure that the brackets are secure before commencing onto the next step.

|
Step 3| Carefully hang the radiator onto the brackets. It is highly recommended that two people perform this step, due to the weight of the radiator.
