The wall or structure on which it is mounted must be capable of supporting the weight of
the appliance (15 kg) and associated pipework. Ensure that suitable screws or bolts are
used to secure the water heater to the wall. Bracket and fixing hole locations are shown
on the template included. The top bracket has a keyhole slot so that the appliance can
be hung on one screw, and then the other fixings can be added to secure the unit.

The appliance should be placed as close as practical to the most frequently used hot
water outlet point or points to minimise the delay time for hot water delivery. For
installations where the distance between the unit and hot water outlet points is
considerable, the appliance can also be fitted in a 'flow and return system' which
minimises the waiting time for hot water delivery. Alternatively, multiple appliances can
be strategically placed to service outlet points with minimal delay time. Contact Rinnai or
your supplier for further information.
