Transport
The heater must never be transported to the installation site in a horizontal position. Observe the instructions on the packaging! Do not remove the
heater from the packaging until it is at the installation site. Take great care when moving the heater during transport and always place it down gently.
3.3
Installation Site
Install the heater in a frost-proof room. Install the heater on a level and stable floor. If the room is damp, raise the heater on a platform. If the heater is to
be installed below the rooftop, you may want to install a water collection tank with the same capacity as the heater.

Assembly
Internal circulation should be avoided. The pipe routings in all heater circuits should be designed such that internal circulation is avoided. It is
recommended that a nonreturn valve or non-return flap with backflow preventer is integrated into all heater circuits.

Heating Water Connection
Connect the heating coil in the counter current operation. Do not invert the supply and return connections. Keep the charging line as short as possible
and insulate it well. Arrange the drain valve in the charging line.
