Foundations
The Ormandy Rycroft Breeze should be mounted on prepared foundations that are level.
Lifting
One lifting point is provided on the top of the Breeze control panel bracket.
Avoid the use of chains as the links may cause damage.
Caution: Never lift or move the Breeze-Plate by its pipework or pipe connections.

suitable gasket and sealing agent.
Liquid Expansion
Changesinvolumewithtemperaturemustnotbeoverlooked.Thesystempressurewillrise
dramaticallyifthereisnowhereforwatertoexpand.Itisnotadvisabletouseareliefvalveasa
meansofreleasingtheexcesswater.
Ventedsystemsexpansionisviatheventpipewhichdischargesbackintotheatmospherictank.

Filling
Beforellingthesystem,checkthatthedrainvalveisclosedandallairventsareopen.
Flush out the system before installing the Ormandy Rycroft Breeze-Plate to remove any foreign
matter. Close any manual air vents and run the Breeze. Crack the vents to release air.
Caution: Do not ll the system too quickly, otherwise pockets of air may become trapped.
Do not ush the system through the plate heat exchanger, as this could result in the plates
becoming blocked or cause a loss in performance.
