METHOD OF ASSEMBLY
This heater makes use of an
industrial cylinder (9kg ALVA
cylinder recommended) with a 5/8”
BSP thread; horizontal exit valve.
The Bullnose regulator supplied
with the heater tightens to the left
hand side (anti-clockwise).
(Figure A)
If you have bought a new gas cylinder, the cylinder needs to be
purged (cleared out), before its rst use. If it is not purged of air,
the heater will not work properly. This should happen at the gas
lling station when you ll up the cylinder. Always check this with
your gas supplier.
When connecting the supplied hose
and regulator to the heater, rst
insert the tip of the hose into hot
water for softening purposes.
NOTE: Take care when inserting the orange hose end into the
hot water to prevent scalding.
NOTE: Make sure that the hose is inserted fully, covering the
entire hose end connector. Place clamps in position, taking care
that it is directly on the hose end connector and fasten securely.
DO NOT over tighten the clamps. Repeat this step to the other
hose end.
ALVA offers a call out service to assist with heater setup.
