If flexible pipework is used
Connect the pipe to the non-threaded side of the hosetail and secure using two jubilee clips
(See Fig. 7)
• The hosetail may need to be cut depending on the diameter of the pipe.
• Wrap PTFE tape or use silicone around the hosetail before connecting the
pipe to reduce the risk of leakage.
• When using non-standard pipework, the first thing to note is that the smooth
end of the pipe will not fit into anything other than another fitting of the same
brand. You will have to cut it off. The hose tail will push fit in to the cut end
of the pipe, but it will not be watertight. You can put two jubilee clips on it
but because of the ridges in the pipe it will not squeeze down tight. It will
need to be sealed with a bathroom type mastic sealant.
2.4 Electrical connection
• This device must be installed by a qualified Electrician following the
instructions provided in this manual. The manufacturer will not be liable for
any issues caused by poor or improper installation.
• Any alterations made to the unit (unless stated) will affect the warranty. This

• Incorrect installation may result in serious damage to property/persons.
• The heater must be installed in accordance with the country/regional
requirements and regulations and an Electrical Installation Certificate must
be provided on completion of the installation.
• The power supply must be fitted with a 30mA RCD. If required, the
Electrician may replace the cable entry gland supplied with a larger size to
secure the cable powering the heater.
Minimum cable sectional area
This should be calculated at 5-amp/mm

for distances up to 20 metres (these sections are indicative and
should be checked and adapted if necessary, for cable lengths over 20 metres).
