III. HEATER LOCATION
For optimal performance, place the heater as close as possible to the points
of use (we recommend not more than a 5-meter distance). This will minimize
the loss of heat and provide hot water faster at the point of use.
• It is an appliance that must be installed vertically to operate properly. When
the installation is finished and before filling it with water and switching on
the power supply, make sure it is effectively vertically mounted, using a
testing instrument (such as a bubble level).
• Install your water heater so that the control panel is not obstructed, to
facilitate its maintenance and operation leave a free space of at least 50
cm for access to the electrical parts.
• The water heater's location should be as practical as possible, near the
areas where hot water is used in order to avoid heat loss or freezing in
areas of extreme cold.
• The heater requires protection against the rain, preferably a roof at a
minimum of 80cm from the heater cover.
• This water heater can be installed inside or in enclosed spaces, because
it does not require ventilation.
• The heater must be perfectly fixed to avoid movement during earthquakes
and/or tremors, in order to prevent it falling from its position. It must also
be protected by a roof or niche to avoid direct contact with the rain.
• The heater must be mounted with its support, anchors and hooks
(included). Failure to use the anchors and bolts (included), can cause
damage to the installation.
• •Make two horizontal drill holes with a ½" concrete bit at a distance of 240
mm (see FIG 2).
• Generally, for different wall types, especially walls with bricks, perforated
blocks, or blocks with limited firmness, this mounting must be checked for
safety. The wall mounting hooks must be able to support a weight three
times the weight of the heater full of water.
• Do not place objects under the water heater, to avoid damages.
Before connecting the device, you must:
• Make sure that the product characteristics (refer to the data on the label located
on one side of the heater) comply with the requirements for its correct operation.
