Rinnai 4 Smartbox SBOXI/SBOXC/SBOXF, 04-114, Issue 2, 29/01/10
Smartbox® SEMI-RECESS FRAME USE
The SBOXF (Frame) is used when a semi-recessed installation of
the Smartbox recess enclosure is required. SBOXF reduces the
cavity depth requirements of the SBOXI (Insert) by 60mm. This is
useful where the depth of a wall cavity is insufficient to allow
SBOXI to be fully recessed (for example weatherboard or other
non masonry walls).
The Smartbox Frame (SBOXF) is to be installed at
the same time as the Smartbox Insert (SBOXI) and
Smartbox Cover (SBOXC). These instructions are to
be followed in conjunction with the Installation
Instructions for Insert and Cover supplied with
those items.
GENERAL PREPERATION
1. Prepare an opening in the wall approximately 1 metre above
the ground. The opening requirements are Height 1030mm,
Width 390mm and a minimum Depth of 100mm. Ensure the
location complies with the requirements of AS 5601 Fig. 5.3.
2. When installing the SBOXF (frame) it should be orientated so
that the sealing flange is against the wall surface and the
two drainage slots are in the lower most position.
SECURING OPTIONS
The Smartbox Frame and Insert are designed for surface
mounting and may be secured using any of the methods
described below:
Securing SBOXI/SBOXF externally
Use the 8 x 100mm bugle screws that are supplied with the
SBOXF (frame) to secure both the SBOXF (frame) and SBOXI
(insert) to the wall surface.
When securing the SBOXI (Insert) and SBOXF
(frame) from the front, use ONLY the 8 screw holes
that are provided. DO NOT attempt to screw or
nail through the sealing flange of the SBOXF (frame)
as this may damage the frame.
Securing SBOXI/SBOXF internally through the side wall
Secure the SBOXI (insert) into a solid fixture such as brickwork,
timber studs etc, through the side walls using suitable
fasteners.
Securing SBOXI/SBOXF internally through the rear wall
Install noggins between wall studs and secure through the rear
wall of the SBOXI (insert) using suitable fasteners.
Securing SBOXI/SBOXF with the use of brick ties
Secure a brick tie to the side walls of the SBOXI (insert) with
pop-rivets or screws.
