Heater Positioning and Installation
• The electrical installation of this heater must be
approved by your local electricity company.
• The installation must be carried out by a competent
electrician.
• Electrical installation and local safety regulations
must also be adhered to.
Procedures to be followed
All National and Local Safety Codes should be ad-
hered to both at the planning and installation stages.
Choosing the Heater Position
The heater can be positioned anywhere within the
room to be heated. It is preferable however to place
the heater under a window so that the cold air in this
vicinity can be warmed, causing natural convection.
The floor and/or the wall must be able to take the
weight of the heater. Please, therefore, note carefully
the weights given in the Technical Data section of this
instruction. If in doubt, consult a building engineer or
architect.
Olsberg storage heaters generally need no protective
under board when standing on normal flooring, as
long as this is flat and smooth and can withstand tem-
peratures of 80°C minimum.
Floorings which do not withstand point loading can
lead to the heater feet subsiding into the flooring, thus
interfering with, or preventing completely, convection
below the heater.
In the case of soft, load-sensitive or non-heat-resistant
floors or carpeting, as well as to even out any sur-
faces, it is advisable to first put down a protective
board the size of the underside of the heater. When
using high- or thick-pile carpeting a protective board
or floor-standing consoles should definitely be used.
Assembly
The heater should be only removed from its packag-
ing near to its place of final assembly.
Small cracks or chips in the heater core bricks have
no influence on the operation of the heater.
Minimum Clearances
For reasons of safety, the following minimum clear-
ances are to be adhered to:
•
From cover and side panels ...........................10cm
•
From air-outlet grille........................................25cm
Tilting Safety, Wall Mounting and Floor Fixing
Olsberg electric storage heaters must be protected
against tipping over. To do this, the heaters are to be
fixed to the wall or to the floor.
The heater should first be mounted to the wall as
shown in Fig.1 using the screw and wall-plug pro-
vided. The fixing screw can be threaded through ei-
ther the left-hand or right-hand inside panel.
If the heater cannot be fixed to the wall, it is possible
to fix it to the floor itself. 2 drill holes of Ø6.5mm are to
be found in the left and right hand floor of the heater
(Fig.2).
Floor fixing must be carried out using suitable fixing
materials. We recommend hexagonal head screws
(DIN 571) with corresponding washers and floor-
plugs.
