Installation Mode; Instructions For Installation - Fondital GARDA S/90 AC Serie Instalación Y Mantenimiento

To the user and installer,
Thank you for choosing a GARDA radiator. Please read the following notes carefully.
The installer should leave at least one copy of this booklet with the user.
These radiators are guaranteed against manufacturing defects for 10 years as from the date of purchase
or installation. The actual date is the one specified on the purchase document or the declaration of
conformity of the system issued by the installer. Under the guarantee, any radiators found to have
manufacturing defects will be replaced, and compensation will be paid for any injury to persons or
damage to property.
The radiators must be installed by a properly qualified person in compliance with the relevant laws in
force and the rules of good workmanship.
The instructions for installation, use and maintenance set out below and in our technical and commercial
documentation must be followed carefully.
Clearly faulty radiators must be rejected prior to installation.

INSTALLATION MODE

The GARDA S90 AC series radiators can be connected to the heating system by means of a valve con-
nected on the bottom of the central element, which features a ½'' threaded hole.
We recommend to use the valves indicated in the Fondital commercial catalogue that allow both the
double-pipe and single-pipe installation. In case of single-pipe connection, it is better to install maxi-
mum 2 radiators in the same circuit.
With the GARDA S90 AC series radiators, the valves can be installed in a visible or hidden position as
required by the customer or according to the technical requirements, as shown in figures A and B.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION

Points to be borne in mind during installation:
• These radiators can be used in hot water and steam systems up to 120°C.
• The maximum operating pressure is 16 bar (1600 kPa).
• The following distances must be kept to when installing the radiators:
- at least 12 cm from the floor
- at least 2÷5 cm from the wall behind
- at least 10 cm from the alcove or shelf.
• Each radiator must have an air valve (supplied standard)
• The water in the heating system must have a pH value of 7-8 at 25°C and must be treated with pro-
ducts suitable for multi-metal systems, with reference to standards in force in the country of instal-
lation. Only specific products must be used, such as CILLIT HS 23 Combi, SENTINEL X100 or FERNOX
F1.
• The guarantee is not valid if the radiator is used with water that corrodes the metals used.
• For plugs and adapters, always use original o-rings (supplied standard).
