1. general information 1. GENERAL INFORMATION The Next SFT Water Heater is a room sealed, fanned flue, mulitpoint water heater. The appliance has been designed for domestic use only and to be connected to a mains cold water supply with a minimum pressure of 0.5 bar. A permanent electrical connection is required and should be provided by use of a fused spur. The electrical supply should be via a double pole isolating switch with 3mm contact separation in both poles.

3. installation IMPORTANT!! BE SURE TO REMOVE THE DISPLAY CABLE FROM THE PCB BEFORE COMPLETELY REMOVING THE CASING. 3.8.8. Wall Mounting Fix the water heater to the wall using suitably sized screws using both brackets at high and low level. 3.8.9.
3. installation 3.9. FITTING THE FLUE The appliance must not be installed with a flue supplied by another manufactuer. The appliance is supplied ready for connection to a concentirc air intake and exhaust outlet system. IMPORTANT!! The flue duct must not be in contact with inflammable materials, a seperation of at least 5mm must be between the flue duct and structures or walls made of flammable materials. When replacing an old appliance, the flue must be changed.
3. installation Once the appliance has been temporarily postitioned on the wall, insert the elbow into the socket and rotate to the required position. NOTE: IT IS POSSIBLE TO ROTATE THE ELBOW 360º ON ITS VERTICAL AXIS. Clamp Fig. 4 Either using the dimensions in Fig. 2 or physically marking the corresponding wall, remove the appliance from the wall and drill a Ø 105mm hole for the flue. Refit the appliance to the wall and proceed as follows: 1.
3. installation 3.9.4. Fitting the Coaxial Flue (Ø 60/100 Vertical) IMPORTANT!! The vertical starter with integral flue gas analysis point supplied with the flue kit must be used when terminating the flue vertically.
4. commissioning 4.4.1. Supply working pressure check 4. Commissioning Once the water heater installation has been completed, it is necessary to commision the appliance as follows: 4.1.
