Introduction

The unit is supplied in a standard mode which includes a rectangular air outlet duct, a rectangular air inlet duct (Not fitted) and four mounting feet (Not fitted).
Dependent on the installation you may require right angle ducts, extension ducts, double /triple spigot outlets and grilles, these items and ancillary controls are supplied as  accessories (Listed on pages 11 & 12) and should be added to your order if required.

Flexible ducts and other extensions should be sourced from a ductwork supplier (Please refer to page 10 for dimensional diagrams).
This product is designed to heat areas where the unit is to be concealed.
The unit can be mounted on feet (supplied) or hung by threaded rod or chains. When hanging unit by rod or chains ensure fixings are strong enough to take the whole weight of the product and any ancillary accessories used.
Fixing holes are available to accommodate hanging or mounting in any aspect, the unit can be mounted horizontally or vertically in most applications.
Outlet air can be ducted via a straight duct outlet. (Supplied).
At a right angle, via cranked duct or 200mm spigot adapter (optional accessories).
Air draw (return air) can be from either side, bottom, or via right angle cranked duct in any combination.
Suitable applications include- concealed behind walls and panelling, in custom made box sections, above suspended ceilings, concealed over doors, under wooden floors and staging.
This product must not be installed directly in wet rooms or high humidity areas.
This product is designed for use on standard two-pipe pumped central heating systems with a maximum water temperature of 86’c and a maximum pressure of 6 bar  (88lbs/in 2 ) pipe connections are 22mm and either pipe may be used as flow or return. Suitable valves should be fitted to supply pipework to enable servicing and or  balancing.
This product is classified as a fixed appliance and the electrical connection should be via a 3amp fused spur. The fused spur must not be directly below the heater but should  be accessible after completion of the installation. All heaters must be earthed. It is recommended that this heater is wired via a remote room thermostat.
To conform with building regulations part l (part j in Scotland) a remote room thermostat can be used in conjunction with this heater. Refer to manufacturers instructions  supplied with the thermostat.
It is recommended that these heaters be fitted with flexible pipe connections to compensate for any movement when used in a hanging installation.
Flexible connections are available as an accessory (see page 10)

Controls
Ensure the central heating system is ON. Switch on the heater (the neon switch will illuminate). Set the thermostat control (if fitted) to the desired temperature. Providing the  water temperature in the central heating system is more than 35°C and the thermostat (if fitted) is calling for heat the product will switch on. If you require a faster warm up  move the heat output switch to boost. When the room reaches the desired temperature you may move the heat output switch to low. These switches in themselves do not  isolate the unit from the mains supply

Installation guide

Depending where the heater is to be fitted and the orientation of the heater (Free standing or hung) suitable fixings should be installed.
If free standing the heater we would recommend the use of wooden batons fixed to the floor for the feet to be fixed to. (See “Surface mounting” below)
Note if hanging the heater suitable fixings should be used to accept the weight of the unit.
Do not install directly to the cross frames of a suspended ceiling as they will not be strong enough to take the weight of the heater.
Prepare apertures for flow and return air ducts where the unit is to be installed i.e. behind wall /panel or suspended ceiling.
Before commencing the installation choose the position of the return air entry to the unit, This can be through one of three options: Front, back or bottom.
The heater comes with a cover plate fitted to the bottom return air entry point.
If using bottom return air entry remove bottom blank planel and fit rectangular filter holding duct. Be aware that the slot for the filter should always face upwards.

Refit plate to opening on side of unit.
If fitting duct to rear of unit remove whole front and rear plates refit on the opposite side.
