Installation
Requirements
General
Prior to installation the Zip Aquapoint should be kept upright in its original
packaging and handled with care always lifting from underneath.
The Zip Aquapoint should be stored in a covered, dry area protected at all times
from the weather.
These instructions must be read and fully understood before commencing
the installation. If in doubt, or in need of further guidance please ring Zip on
0870 6088888.
Installation must only be undertaken by a competent person holding a current
Registered Operative Identity card for the installation of unvented domestic hot
water storage systems issued by an accredited body.
The Zip Aquapoint must be installed in accordance with these instructions
and all current legislation, codes of practice and regulations governing the
installation of unvented hot water cylinders in force at the time of installation.
All connections should be made to the Zip Aquapoint and its safety devices
using the 15mm or 22mm compression fittings, nuts and olives supplied.
The electrical installation including earthing and cross bonding must comply
with the current IEE regulations and any Local Authority requirements.
The cold water feed manifold assembly comprises a pressure reducing valve
with integral strainer, expansion relief and check valve, factory fitted pressure
and temperature relief valve and expansion vessel. All of these components
must be included in the installation. The pressure settings on these components
are factory set and indicated on the top of the valve. Do not break any seals
or attempt to adjust any safety valve; to do so may impair the safety of the
installation and will invalidate the warranty.
It is recommended that the unit is installed according to these instructions.
Under no circumstances should the expansion relief valve be installed in an
inverted position as fouling of the seat caused by deposits may prevent it from
operating correctly.
