6 1.2 Technical safety equipment Gas control block The water heater has been fitted with a gas control block consisting of a thermo-electrical pilot flame safeguard, pilot flame pressure regulator, burner pressure regulator, a control thermostat (adjustable between 30°C and 71°C) and a safety thermostat (82°C).
7 It is the aim of the T.R.S. to prevent flue gasses from the water heater entering the room where the water heater has been placed, instead of passing through the flue to outside atmosphere. The thermo-couple circuit is interrupted and the gas supply is disconnected as soon as the T.

12 2. FOR THE INSTALLER 2.1 Installation instructions This water heater must be fitted in a location which will permit the provision of an approved flue system and adequate ventilation. A service clearance of 15 cm at the sides and rear of the unit and 60 cm at the front of the unit should be allowed for ease of servicing.
13 the current building regulations should be used. Installation should be carried out generally as shown on the following diagram. See drawing 4. A.O. Smith water heaters are tested to a maximum pressure of 12 bar and a maximum working pressure of 8 bar.
14 All connections and joints should be tested for gas soundness with a suitable leak detector (do not use a naked flame). 2.1.4. Flue system The water heater should be fitted with a flue system connected to the draught diverter. The flue pipe should rise for at least 50 cm.
15 2.2 Commissioning Filling the water heater 1. Close the drain tap. 2. Open the cold water tap to the water heater and open all taps where hot water can be drained for de- aeration. The water heater is filled as soon as cold water flows from all taps.
16 2.3 Pilot adjustment The pilot can be adjusted by means of the regulating screw under the plastic cover on the right hand side of the gas control block. Turn the screw clockwise to reduce the gas pressure and anti clockwise to increase the pressure.
17 2.6 Setting the nominal heat input The gas control has been factory preset to the water heater nominal heat input. A further check of the burner pressure should be carried out during the commissioning of the unit after installation. The following procedure should be followed.

19 2.8 Maintenance To ensure safe and efficient operation of the water heater it is recommended that it is cleaned and serviced at least once a year by a qualified competent person. 2.8.1 Sacrificial anode The life cycle of the anode is determined by the quality and the quantity of the water flowing through the apparatus.
20 2.8.3 Decalcification Formation of lime scale depends on the quality and quantity of the water used. In addition higher water temperatures lead to more deposit in the appliance. A temperature setting of 60°C is recommended in order to keep the calcification at a low level.
21 Flue down draught safety device If the flue tube safety device has switched off the appliance, the appliance can be put back into operation through the normal procedure. If the flue tube safety device repeatedly puts the appliance out of operation then this points to problems with the flue.
22 3. FOR THE USER 3.1 Commissioning Warning Installing and commissioning of this water heater should only be carried out by a qualified competent heating engineer. Filling the water heater 1. Close the drain tap. 2. Open the cold water tap to the water heater and open all taps where hot water can be drained for de- aeration.
