Section 3: INSTALLATION DETAILS
3a: General Installation Requirements
This water heater must be installed by a licensed tradesperson, and in accordance with
1. AS 3500.4, National Plumbing And Drainage Code, Part 4: Hot Water Supply Systems.
2. AS 3500.4.2, National Plumbing And Drainage Code, Part 4.2: Hot Water Supply Systems
– Acceptable Solutions.
3. Other relevant Australian Standard, Industry or Local Water Supply regulations or codes
for mains pressure storage tanks.
Note: This water heater is not suitable for pool heating or building heating.
3a.1: Location
The water heater should be located as close as possible to the most frequently used hot water
outlets. Adequate access must be made for service to the evaporator, water temperature thermostat,
relief valve and anode. Ensure that the specification label is clearly visible. The front service cover
of the heat pump section (on top of tank) must be accessible from the front of the heater; this must
NOT face the wall. The fan MUST NOT be up against a wall (minimum clearance 500mm).
The Compact model has a noise level similar to an air conditioner (52dBA @ 1.5 metre); therefore
locating the unit away from bedrooms or living areas is recommended (both the owners & any
neighbours). Obviously installing near a bedroom window may be annoying to the occupants.
Note: All models are equipped with a sacrificial anode, accessible through the top cover. We
recommend allowing 400mm above the top of the water heater (if possible) for clearance to
replace the anode.
The water heater should be placed on a 650mm x 650mm plinth if installed on a floor subject to
wet conditions or outdoors. A properly drained overflow tray should be used where property
damage could occur from water spillage. (See AS3500.4 for further details.)
Note: The warranty does not cover damage due to leakage of the water heater
