GENERAL AND SAFETY INFORMATION
SECTION 1
It is the duty of manufacturers and suppliers of products for use at work to ensure, so far as is practicable, that such products are safe and without risk to health when properly used and to make available to users, adequate information about their safe and proper operation.
Andrews Water Heaters should only be used in the manner and purpose for which they were intended and in accordance with the instructions in this manual. Although the heaters have been manufactured with paramount consideration to safety, the basic safety precautions highlighted in this manual must be observed by the user.
It is imperative that all users of the heater must be provided with all the information and instruction necessary to ensure correct and safe operation.
HEALTH AND
SAFETY
REGULATIONS
1993
Water systems in buildings have been associated with outbreaks of Legionnaires' Disease, particularly in health care facilities where occupants are significantly more susceptible to infection.
In recognition of the risks in hospitals, a Code of Practice for the Control of Legionellae in Health Care premises has been issued by the Department of Health (1991). Codes of
Practice applicable to other premises have been published by other organisations, principally the Health and Safety Executive (HS)(G70) and the Chartered Institute of
Building Services Engineers (CIBSE, TM13).
All Codes of Practice draw attention to the design and operation of water systems with reference to avoidance of factors that favour colonisation by Legionellae bacteria. These factors include stagnation, lukewarm conditions (20ºC to 45ºC) and the accumulation of debris, scale and corrosion in the base of tanks and calorifiers.
Andrews Water Heaters has commissioned an independent evaluation of their products to investigate their resistance to build-up of legionellae bacteria.
Experiments were conducted to determine whether, following a substantial challenge by legionellae pneumophilia, after overnight and stagnation conditions, the system was rendered free from viable recoverable legionellae. It was found that at 61ºC, following a challenge of approximately 107 organisms per litre, within one hour, more than 99.999% of organisms had been killed. After a subsequent stagnation period, sampling did not reveal any residual contamination. The design of the base of the water heater precludes legionellae colonisation, even after build-up of debris. The burner positioning ensures that the water at the bottom of the heater reaches the same, or higher temperature as in the rest of the heater.
Based on data obtained through experiment, the Andrews Water Heater can be described as legionellae resistant as it is considered unlikely that, at the temperature tested, the organism would colonise the water heater and present a possible health risk.

INSTALLATION
SECTION 3
Your Andrews Water Heater is a Direct Fan Flued Gas Water Heater where all air for combustion is obtained from the outside atmosphere and all flue gases are charged to the outside atmosphere. The flue system is a single coaxial (pipe within pipe) design where the flue products are discharged through the inside flue tube and the combustion air supply surrounds the flue surrounded by the outside pipe. The flue system incorporates both combustion air supply and the flue exhaust. The flue system component which is outside the building and takes in the combustion air supply and discharges the flue products (whilst keeping them separate) is referred to as the 'direct flue terminal'.
WARNING!
The direct flue system must be properly installed. Failure to do so could result in property damage or personal injury. DO NOT install any damaged components. Contact Andrews
Water Heaters for replacement parts. The flow of combustion air must not be restricted.
Keep direct flue terminal openings clear of any objects likely to cause flow restriction.
Direct Flue Terminal
Shall terminate at least 1.5m (5ft) above any forced air inlet located on the same wall.
This provision does not apply to the combustion air intake of a direct flue appliance or the circulating air inlet and flue gas discharge of listed outdoor appliances.
Shall be installed with at least a 300mm (12in) flue termination clearance from any air opening into a building.
The bottom of the direct flue terminal shall be located at least 300mm (12in) above ground.
Consideration should be given to the location of the flue terminal. The flue terminal should be located where the discharge of flue products does not cause a nuisance.
Consideration should also be given with regard to noise that may be emitted by this flue system. In all cases the flue termination must meet the requirements of BS6644.
A suitable terminal guard must be fitted if less than 2 mtrs above ground level.
FLUE
SYSTEMS
The Andrews Direct Fan Flued Gas Water Heater is supplied with one direct flue kit.
The flue system supplied with this water heater is a coaxial design with the flue discharge tube on the inside and combustion air supply on the outside. Optional direct flue components are available that can extend the horizontal length and/or vertical height of the direct flue to the maximum distances listed in the table below. This water heater must be installed using the supplied or optional listed components without modification.
Refer to the table on Page 36 for the various vertical and horizontal direct flue system components.
NOTE! The supplied horizontal flue terminal may be used through outside walls up to
600mm (24in) thick.

2. Vertical Flue Terminal (Through the Roof - Optional)
a) Determine the exact location where the roof flue terminal will exit the roof, ensuring the flue system clears all obstructions. For pitched roofs, the flue cap must be the distance above the roof line as specified, (300mm to base of Flue Clamp, minimum).
The top of the roof terminal may extend up to 760mm (2.5ft) above the roof line as required.
b) Run the coaxial flue system to the proper distance below the roof sheathing required for the correct distance of the roof terminal above the roof surface. See the following sections on installing the rest of the flue system.
c) Cut a minimum 165mm (6.5in) diameter hole for the smaller flue size or a 216mm
(8.5in) minimum diameter hole for the larger flue size centred in the desired location for the roof terminal. See Fig. 6.
d) Centre the roof flashing over the hole using either the flat roof flashing or universal flashing for pitched roofs.
e) Slip the storm collar supplied with the roof flashing kit over the outside of the flue terminal and align with the flue pipe end below roof opening. Insert the terminal into the flue pipe.
f) Fasten the roof flashing with nails. Seal the flue terminal and flashing to the roof.
g) Install the gasketed clamp around the joint between the flue terminal and flue pipe.

INSTALLING FLUE PIPING SECTIONS
a) The coaxial flue pipe sections are designed to fit tightly together and seal with the integral flue pipe seal and supplied pipe clamps. No silicone caulk or special tools are required.
b) All flue sections and fittings come complete with silicone flue pipe gaskets and outside gasketed pipe clamps for making air tight connections between the flue pipe connections.
d) Raise the flue pipe to the flue terminal connection with the gasketed end of the flue pipe towards the flue terminal. Insert the flue pipe into the flue terminal connection and grasp the end of the flue pipe while twisting and pushing the pipe until inserted all the way into the flue terminal.
e) Connect the outside pipes together using the gasketed clamps provided. The flue pipes have ribs located near each end. When the flue piping is connected, the gasketed clamps shall cover the ribs and joints of the connecting flue tubes. Support each pipe section with hangers attached to the supporting joists in the wall or ceiling.
f) Continue connecting pipe sections together with clamps and supporting with hangers.

Gasketed Clamp g) The last pipe section may be cut to fit the distance required to reach the water heater flue connections. First, install the supplied condensate trap with crimped end into the gasketed end of the elbow (horizontal flue installations) and clamp the condensate tee and elbow together. Then install the crimped end of the elbow into the flue connection of the water heater. On vertical installations, install the the crimped end of the condensate trap directly onto the water heater flue connection. The 58.7kWh
models require the installation of a flue reducer (supplied) into the water heater flue assembly before attaching the elbow or condensate trap (vertical flue).
IMPORTANT! In order for the condensate trap to collect and dispose of the condensate from the flue pipe, the flue system must have a downward slope of 21mm per metre (0.25in/ft) towards the condensate trap. The condensate trap must be installed as close as possible to the flue adaptor to prevent condensate from accumulating and draining into the flue adaptor or blower.
h) Carefully measure the length of straight flue pipe needed, allowing for about 50mm
(2in) insertion into the elbow. Mark the ungasketed end of the pipe to be cut and carefully make a straight cut on the outside pipe to the desired length. Make sure the inside tube is not cut. Then cut the inside flue pipe about 50mm (2in) more than the outside pipe so that the flue pipe protrudes slightly beyond the outside pipe. Connect the flue pipe and clamp at each end.
i) Use the large clamp supplied in the flue kit with the stepped gasket to seal the elbow or condensate trap to the blower flue connector. The larger step of the gasket seals the flue pipe to the cast flue adaptor.
j) Condensate disposal: Connect either a 32mm (1.25in) slip joint drain connection or a
25mm (1in) PVC compression coupling from the condensate trap nipple to 25mm
(1in) PVC piping to a drain or condensate disposal pump. Install a drain trap after the condensate fitting to seal the flue system.
Note: On all flue installations, for distances over 1.5 metres, we recommend that a condensate trap is fitted.

The following notes are intended to give guidance:
Where the heater is to be installed in a room, NO VENTS ARE REQUIRED.
Where the heater is to be installed in a compartment, permanent air vents are required in the compartment at high and low level. These air vents must either communicate with a room or internal space or be direct to outside air.
The minimum effective areas of the permanent air vents required in the compartment are as follows:

Note: - Both air vents must communicate with the same room or internal space or must both be on the same wall to outside air.
Air vents should have negligible resistance and must not be sited in any position where they are likely to be easily blocked or flooded or in any position adjacent to an extraction system which is carrying flammable vapour.
Consideration must be given to the position of the high level ventilation opening. A high level vent must not be sited within 300mm (1ft) measured vertically, of the flue terminal.
Grilles and louvres should be so designed that high velocity air streams do not occur within the space housing the heater(s).

AND
VENTILATION
IMPORTANT:
1. The effective area requirements specified in the table are related to the maximum heat input of of the heater(s), and are equivalent to those specified in BS6644 and
IGE/UP/10 Pt.1
2. The free area of the grilles should not be less than the size of the recommended ventilation opening.
3. The supply of air to a space housing the heater(s) by mechanical means should be:-
(a) Mechanical inlet with natural extraction.
(b) Mechanical inlet with mechanical extraction.
NB!! Natural inlet with mechanical extraction must not be used.
Where a mechanical inlet and mechanical extraction system is used, the design extraction rate must not exceed one third of the design inlet rate.
All mechanical ventilation systems must be fitted with automatic gas shut off safety systems which cut off the supply of gas to the heater(s) in the event of failure of either the inlet or extract fans.
The requirements for air supply by mechanical ventilation are given in BS6644
Clause 19.3 and IGE/UP/10 Pt.1.
The permanent air vents shall be sited away from the extract fans. It may be necessary to increase the ventilation area to compensate for the extractor fan.

INSTALLATION
SECTION 3
Where extreme conditions of water hardness exist, scale can form in any water heating equipment, especially when the heater is working under conditions of constant heavy demand and at high temperatures.
Each water heater is fitted with one or more magnesium anode(s) which protects the tank from corrosion caused by electrolytic action. Magnesium anodes are sacrificial in that they corrode as they protect. When the anode has eroded to less than 50% of it's original diameter, it may not offer protection. The anodes should be inspected annually and replaced as necessary. Frequency of anode replacement will vary, dependent on water quality.
Andrews Water Heaters offer Correx TM UP powered anodes as an alternative to the standard magnesium anodes. These anodes do not need maintenance or replacement.
The potentiostat which regulates the current to the Correx TM anode features an indicator light which shows green to indicate the correct function and red to indicate the malfunction. These anodes are available as an optional extra on all Andrews heaters.
In hard water areas, scale formation can occur in hot water systems and hot water heaters and the higher the temperature and volume of water used, the more problematic the scale build-up can be. Water treatment is normally recommended when the hardness reaches 100 - 150ppm (7 - 10 degrees Clark) and above. This problem can be minimised by reducing the water temperature in the heater and by fitting suitable water pretreatment equipment.
When installing Andrews Water Heaters in hard water areas we would recommend that a water treatment specialist is consulted.

USER'S SAFETY
GUIDE
For your safety read before lighting the appliance.
WARNING
1. Always follow manufacturer's instructions when lighting the appliance. Failure to do so may result in damage to property, personal injury or loss of life.
2. Before lighting, check all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to check at low level because some gas (i.e. LPG) is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.
3. Do not make any attempt to re-light the appliance if the main burner has extinguished. Wait at least 5 minutes to allow for any unburnt gas to disperse.
Ventilate the area if possible.
FOR YOUR SAFETY IF YOU SMELL GAS
1. Turn off gas supply and open windows.
2. Do not operate electrical switches.
3. Extinguish any naked flames.
4. Contact gas supplier if the smell of gas persists.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Do not store or use petrol, aerosol or other flammable vapours or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other atmospheric gas appliance.
WARNING
Hotter water increases the risk of scalding. Before changing the temperature, refer to the instruction manual or data label. Hot water can produce third-degree burns in:-
6 seconds at 140ºF (60ºC)
30 seconds at 130ºF (54ºC)
26
OPERATION
When properly installed and adjusted, the heater will require minimal attention. Should it become necessary to completely drain the heater, follow instructions given in Section 4,
Commissioning.
Whenever the heater is filled with cold water, condensation will form on the storage vessel surfaces when the burner is lit. This is normal and will disappear when the heater warms up.
Operating Sequence
1. When the control thermostat senses too-cool water, a signal is sent to the control sequence unit.
2. When the pilot solenoid opens, gas is allowed to pass to the pilot and simultaneous ignition begins?
3. When the pilot flame is established, the main gas solenoid is allowed to slowly open and the main burners or burner is lit.
4. When the control thermostat is satisfied, both pilot and main gas solenoids are closed.
ECO (Energy Cut-Off)
The heater is equipped with an ECO (Energy Cut-Off) device, fitted to the control thermostat. It is a temperature sensitive switch which opens at high temperature, shutting off gas to the burners, including the pilot in an overheat condition. When the water has cooled sufficiently, the manual reset on the ECO needs to be depressed to allow the heater to be re-lit. If the pilot goes out and is associated with high water temperature, the ECO is probably operational and the cause of overheating should be investigated.
Temperature Stratification (Stacking)
When small amounts of hot water are drawn repeatedly, the thermostat responds to each feed of cold water and activates the main burners. Each time this occurs, more heat may be put back in the tank than was drawn off. As this continues, water in the upper level of the tank gets hotter than the thermostat setting. This hotter water does not mix completely with the cold inlet water, but rises in a 'chimney effect' to the top of the tank.
Many repetitions of this over a short time period results in accumulation of excessively hot water in the upper part of the tank, even when the thermostat control is within limits. This is known as stacking.
To counter this condition, an upper thermostat phial is fitted which senses abnormally hot water and shuts down the main burner until the water cools. Most modern commercial pipe installations include a circulating pump which keeps hot water moving continuously throughout the heater. This stabilises temperatures in the water heater tank and throughout the pipe system.

SERVICING
INTRODUCTION
Servicing must be carried out by a properly qualified person.
Whilst giving these instructions for the care of the Heater, it is recommended that checks are carried out by the installer or local gas authority, at least annually. Ensure good ventilation by keeping the heater free of extraneous materials and clear of dust and lint.
Keep pipework, flue and tops of heaters clear of any combustible materials. A water softener or lime inhibitor should be employed in hard water areas. The heater should be inspected every few months via the hand hole cleanout and lime or silt deposits removed.
Failure to do so will shorten heater life and may invalidate the warranty.
NOTE! The cleanout hole gasket must be renewed whenever the cover is removed.
PRE-SERVICE
OPERATIONS
Before servicing, carry out the following operations.
1) Turn off the gas service cock.
2) Turn off the cold water supply to the heater.
3) Turn on the hot water draw-off taps served by the water heater, or, for multiple installations, turn off the hot water outlet connection valve and secondary return valve.
4) Drain down using the drain valve on the heater.
ANNUALLY
Annual checks of the ignition systems, temperature controls and any other controls are necessary to ensure continued safe and efficient operation.
The entire combustion system must be sealed for this water heater to function correctly.
Ensure that the burner access panel is kept tightly sealed. The combustion air supply pipe at the rear of the heater must be tightly clamped to the vent adopter and combustion air box boot. Replace any damaged parts.
The entire venting system and combustion air supply must be inspected at least annually for integrity of all joints and gaskets.
SIX MONTHLY
BLOWER MOTOR BEARINGS
Every six months lubricate the blower motor bearings. Apply four drops of SAE 20 motor oil to the ports of the front and rear motor bearings.

CLEANING THE
STORAGE
VESSEL
The storage vessel should be checked and cleaned annually
Scale formation in the base of the vessel may occur, particularly in hard water areas and is normally associated with high usage and high water temperatures. It is characterised by a rumbling noise when the main burner is lit. Scale formation in the base of the vessel will affect the efficency of the water heater and reduce the life of the storage vessel.
It should be noted that the failure of the storage vessel due to scale formation on the base will not be covered by the terms of the warranty.
Any scale formation which cannot be removed by normal means of cleaning should be removed by chemical descaling. See below.
Descaling
When descaling the heater, attention is drawn to the following guidelines.
CAUTION!
DUE TO THE CORROSIVE NATURE OF DESCALING FLUID, IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT
SUITABLE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING IS USED AND ADEQUATE VENTILATION
AVAILABLE.
1. Turn gas control to OFF and isolate gas supply.
2. Close water inlet valve and drain heater tank.
3. Remove magnesium anode(s). It is recommended that new anode(s) is (are) fitted.
4. Add suitable hydrochloric acid based descale fluid. The requirement is normally
10 litres or more dependent on amount of limescale present.
5. After a minimum of one hour, restore gas supply and turn on main gas burner for 2 minutes maximum.
6. Isolate gas supply and drain descale fluid through drain port.
7. Open cold water feed valve and fill heater tank.
8. Drain and flush out heater for 20 minutes minimum.
9. Replace anode(s).
10. Restore gas supply and re-light heater.

(a) Reset thermostat to lower temperature.
(b) Thermostat faulty. Check and replace if necessary.
(c) Main gas valve not closing. Clean or replace.
(a) Check gas pressures at burner and at gas inlet to heater.
(b) Check amount of water being used against recovery rate given on data plate. If usage too high, more heating capacity needed.
(a) Check if this stops when water in heater is hot. If yes, then condensation is the problem caused by incorrectly designed flue or by tank cooling excessively, i.e. more hot water being used than recovery rate of heater. If so, more heating capacity needed.
(b) If water continues to drip when heater is hot, problem is leaking joint or storage vessel.
(a) Scale formation in heater, consult water treatment specialist. Heater must be descaled and suitable water treatment provided to avoid re-occurrence.
(a) Check gas service cock is open.
(b) Check gas control knob is ON.
(c) Check ECO for failure.
(a) Main gas valve not energised. Check for loose contacts.
(b) Check for 24V AC at intermittent pilot ignition.
Replace control if faulty.
(c) Check for 24V AC at main gas valve terminals. Replace valve if faulty.
