Rinnai Australia 19 ES Flue Installation Manual
FLUE COMPONENT ASSEMBLY
COMPONENT ASSEMBLY & CONNECTION ~ ESBEND
1. Lubricate an ESBEND inner pipe ‘O-Ring’ and fit to the inner pipe of the nominated component. Use ONLY
the supplied silicone based “O Ring” seal lubricant. DO NOT use petroleum based lubricants such as petroleum
jelly. The use of petroleum jelly, vaseline
®
or similar petroleum based lubricants will cause rapid deterioration
of the ‘O Ring’ seals.
2. Fit an ESBEND outer pipe to the outer pipe of the same nominated component.
3. Insert one of plastic centering spacer provided with ESBEND, then Lubricate the a second ESBEND inner
pipe ‘O-Ring’ and fit to previously fitted inner component.
4. Fit a second ESBEND outer pipe to the previously fitted outer component.
5. Insert the remaining plastic centering spacer provided with ESBEND, before connecting further components.
For extended offset installations use the same procedure ensuring the centering spacers are inserted as
shown.
COMPONENT ASSEMBLY & CONNECTION ~ ESCONDK
COMPONENT ASSEMBLY & CONNECTION ~ ESROOFCOWL
When connecting an ESROOFCOWL to other flue components use the same methods as described for connecting
ESPIPE900 and observe the clearance requirements detailed in the section “REGULATIONS, CLEARANCES &
GENERAL INFORMATION” refer to page 2.
ONLY use PVC cement between externally located joints of PVC pipes to secure and seal these
joints against ingress of dust and water. ONLY use non-acidic silicone sealant between externally
located joints of PVC flue pipe and any mating aluminium components (such as the condensate
trap) to secure and seal these joints against ingress of dust and water. Silicone containing acetic
acid, (characteristically having a vinegar odour), as the curing agent or other acids may cause
corrosion of aluminium components and MUST NOT be used.
On “Direct”, “Direct Extended” and “External Wall” installations 2 x ESBEND (2 x 90°) can be used.
On “Sideways”, “Under Floor” and “In-Wall” installations 1 x ESBEND (1 x 90°) can be used.
The centering spacer is a MANDATORY component, that is required for the correct alignment of
Co-axial components when ESBEND kits are used. When fitted correctly the inner and outer pipes
of ESBEND will be self centering.
ONLY use non acidic silicone sealant between the joints of ’outer’ PVC flue pipes and any mating
aluminium components (such as the condensate trap) to secure and seal these joints against
ingress of dust and water. Silicone containing acetic acid (vinegar) as the curing agent or other
acids may cause corrosion of aluminium components and must not be used.
1. All “External Wall” and
“In-Wall” flue installations
must be fitted with
ESCONDK.
Observe the correct
orientation of ESCONDK.
The arrow symbol MUST
point away from the heater
towards the termination of
the flue system.
Lubricate all inner pipe
O-Rings with the silicone
grease provided.
A condensate drain MUST BE connected for all In-Wall
installations, for details concerning the connecting of the
condensate drain see page 25.
