Safety features

a) manually resettable thermal cutout set to 85ºC +/– 3ºC.

b) expansion relief valve (supplied) set at 6 bar.

c) protected against frost whilst power is on.

d) sacrificial anode for added protection against corrosion for element and tank – must be checked regularly (6 months) and replaced where necessary as gradual erosion will occur. In extreme cases local water conditions can cause rapid erosion of the anode resulting in particles being deposited as a residue. The Aquapoint should not be used where water quality is critical.

Installation Location

The water heaters should be installed on the floor, provided connections are at the top. All models can supply one outlet or multiple outlets with no special taps required. When deciding the final location of the heater, consideration should be given to the safe and visible disposal of any water resulting from leaks or seepage. This is particularly relevant when the heater is located in a roof space, cupboard or any concealed location.
