Supplier
The EcoSable water heater is designed in accordance with the applicable regulations. The
water heater is delivered with the CE-marking and all necessary documentation to obey
these regulations. See the compliance section. (on page 4)
Lochinvar accepts no liability for claims from third parties when:
•The instructions for the correct installation of the water heater are not obeyed.
•The instructions for the correct use of the water heater are not obeyed.
•The water heater did not have maintenance on the correct maintenance interval.
For more information, refer to the General Terms of Sales. These are available on request,
free of charge.
We believe that this manual provides you with accurate and complete descriptions of all
relevant components. If you, nonetheless find errors or inaccuracies in this manual, please
inform Lochinvar. This helps us to further improve our documentation.
Compliance
To safely produce domestic hot water, the design and construction of the EcoSable water
heaters is in accordance with:
•the European Regulations 2016/426 on appliances burning gaseous fuels (GAR).
•the European Standard for Gas–fired storage water heaters for the production of
domestic hot water (EN89).
•The European ECO-Design Directive.
•The European Energy Labeling Directive
Refer to the appendix Declaration of conformity.
Regulations
It is law that all gas appliances are installed by competent persons, in accordance with The
Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998. Failure to install appliances
correctly could lead to prosecution. It is in your own interest, and that of safety, to ensure
that this law is complied with. The installation of the equipment MUST be in accordance
with the relevant requirements of the Gas Safety Regulations, Building Regulations,
I.E.E. Regulations and the bylaws of the local water undertaking.
In addition, the installation should follow the relevant guidance offered in the following
documents. It is not practical to list all relevant information due to continuous changes but
emphasis is placed on the following documents, as failure to comply with the guidance
given will almost certainly result in an unsatisfactory installation:
•British Standards (BS)
•Institute of Gas Engineers and Managers (IGEM) Publications
•CIBSE Guides
•Clean Air Act
•H.S.E Guidance
Note
Manufacturer's notes must not be taken in any way as overriding statutory obligations.

1 Introduction
The EcoSable water heater stores and heats water for sanitary purposes.
Cold water enters the bottom of the tank through the water inlet (1). The heated water
leaves the tank at the top through the hot water outlet (2). To operate the water heater,
the display (3) and control switch (4) are used.

Every user must study the user part of this manual and must follow the instructions in this
part of the manual strictly. Do not change the sequence of the described actions. This
manual must be available for the user and service engineer at all times.
Warning
If you smell gas:
•Shut off the mains gas supply valve!
•Avoid causing sparks! Do not use any electrical equipment or
switch, i.e. no telephones, plugs or bells!
•No naked flames! No smoking!
•Open windows and doors!
•Warn occupants and leave the building!
•After leaving the building, alert the gas distribution company or
your installation engineer.
w
Caution
Do not store or use chemical substances in the room where the water heater is installed
because of the risk of explosion and corrosion of the water heater. Some propellants,
bleaching agents and degreasing agents etc. disperse of explosive vapors and/or cause
accelerated corrosion. If the water heater is used in a room where such substances are
stored or used, the warranty will be void.
Caution
Installation, maintenance and service may only by carried out by a qualified engineer.
Caution
The water heater is not intended for use by persons (incl. children under the age of 16)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities, or who lack the necessary
experience or knowledge. When the person responsible for their safety is supervising or
has explained how the water heater should be used, these persons can use the water
heater.
Caution
This water heater is not intended to be used by children under the age of 16. Always
supervise children, and make sure that they do not play with the water heater.
Note
Regular maintenance extends the service life of the water heater. To determine the
correct service interval, the service and maintenance engineer must do a check on both
the water and gas side of the water heater three months after installation. Based on this
check, the best service interval can be determined.
