CAUTION The joint between ASPKIT03 and ESPIPE900 MUST BE secured by a pop rivet or screw through the outer co-ax pipes and flue pipes are to be clipped to the wall using the stand off clips supplied or other suitable method.
FLUE COMPONENT ASSEMBLY CUTTING ~ ASPDFK, ESPIPE900 & ESROOFCOWL CAUTION Cutting is not required for the purposes of joining ASPDFK, ASPKIT03, ESPIPE900 & ESROOFCOWL together Cutting of the last component in the flue assembly (the component furthest away from the heater) may be required to achieve the required flue system length. Cutting is also required at a wall penetration.
FLUE COMPONENT ASSEMBLY ASSEMBLING WALL TERMINAL ~ ASPDFK & ESPIPE900 CAUTION Flue must terminate in accordance with AS/NZS 5601 Figure 6.2. Especially relevant is the requirement to have a minimum of 300mm clearance between the flue terminal and the finished ground level. It is not permissible to excavate a hole to obtain the required 300mm clearance, unless there is sufficient drainage provision.
FLUE COMPONENT ASSEMBLY COMPONENT ASSEMBLY & CONNECTION ~ ESBEND CAUTION 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 the 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.
CONNECTING HEATER EXHAUST & AIR SUPPLY CONNECTING HEATER EXHAUST This section describes how to connect the exhaust pipe from the Aspiration heater to the exhaust connection on flue transition ASPDFK or ASPKIT03. CAUTION ASPKIT03 ASPDFK This joint MUST BE properly secured in accordance with these instructions using the clips provided. If this joint is not secured properly, products of combustion could disperse into the room being heated which may result in a dangerous condition.
CONNECTING CONDENSATE DRAIN TUBE TO HEATER Condensate Drain Kit . A condensate kit is provided with the heater and will need to be installed for “Internal Wall” flue installations or other vertical flue installations that will require draining of the condensate products back into the heater. Barb (Top) Condensate Tray Short End 90° Bend Failure to install the condensate kit correctly may cause damage to the heater and flue system.
