TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION

4
1.1 The Speediboil stores and dispenses water at or close to boiling point
at all times it is switched on. Due caution must be taken when choosing a
location for the product to minimise misuse. Locate the unit over a draining
board, NOT over the sink or basin.
1.2 Push t connectors DO NOT grip chromed or stainless pipe.
1.3 The Speediboil is a vented water heater. The vent pipe must never be
blocked or obstructed, it must be a minimum of 15mm outside
diameter pipe. Where the vent pipe length exceeds 3m, the
pipe diameter should be increased. The vent pipe must be laid to
a continuous fall and discharge in a safe and visible position; it
must discharge via a tundish or nish a minimum of 20mm above
a draining board. The vent pipe material must be capable
of conveying boiling water. The vent pipe must never be connected
directly to a soil pipe.
1.4 Wherever possible the Speediboil should be supplied directly
from a rising main. If fed from a cold water feed cistern, the cistern
must comply with the Water Regulations Guide (clause R27.2). It
should be noted that water quality may be reduced when supplied
from a cistern and additional forms of water pre-treatment may be
necessary.
1.5 In hard water areas, heated water will produce lime scale which will
be deposited within the heater. If this is not regularly removed, it will
impair the operation of the heater. Where rapid and excessive scale
build up is likely to occur, the use of a proprietary scale reducing
device may be benecial.
1.6 The installation must be carried out in accordance with the
relevant requirements of:
• The appropriate Building Regulations either The Building
Regulations (England & Wales), The Building Regulations (Scotland)
or Building Regulations (Northern Ireland).
• The Water Fittings Regulations or Water Byelaws in Scotland.
1.7 The Speediboil will adjust for ambient (room) temperatures of
between 1°C and 40°C.
1.8 When not in use, care must be taken to prevent the unit from freezing;
if thought to be frozen, it must not be switched on. It must be left to
thaw and must then be thoroughly inspected to ensure it is totally
thawed and undamaged.
1.9 The unit is not suitable for installation in an area where a water jet
could be used.
1.0 IMPORTANT INSTALLATION POINTS

5
2.1 The Speediboil must be vertically wall mounted using the bracket
supplied.
2.2 Fig.1, page 6 details the outside dimensions of the Speediboil. It is
recommended that the unit is positioned above the draining board. If this is not
possible, consideration should be given to any spillages that may occur under
the appliance. The heater should be positioned at a height to suit the items
being lled (asks, pans, cups etc.). This is likely to position the base of the unit
250mm above the work surface.
2.3 Sufcient room should be left around the heater for maintenance and
servicing access. The top should not be covered as this will reduce the
efciency of the Speediboil.
2.4 Ensure that the wall can support the full weight of the unit (see
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION, page 3) and that there are no hidden services
(electricity, gas or water) below the surface of the wall.
2.5 Using the backplate mark the xing positions and water and vent entry
points. Drill and plug the xing positions. Fix the mounting bracket to the wall
using the two No. 12 x 2" screws provided (conrm suitability of all screws and
plugs for use with the wall. If unsuitable due to wall type, provide alternative
xings)
2.6 If rear entry services are to be used the necessary holes for these should
be prepared prior to hanging the unit onto its bracket.
2.7 Remove the front cover by unscrewing the top and bottom cover xing
screws. Hang the Speediboil onto the wall mounting bracket. Secure
anchor point to the wall with the No.8 x 1" screw (provided).

3.1 Select appropriate push t connector for chosen entry position:
Bottom entry water - 15mm x 15mm 90º elbow.
Rear entry water - 15mm x 15mm straight.
NOTE: Stainless or chromed pipes DO NOT provide secure connections with
push t ttings (use copper pipe at joints).
3.2 Push the connector fully home (28mm engagement) onto the solenoid
valve inlet spigot. To remove a push t connector the collar (collet) should be
pushed towards the body of the tting whilst pulling the connector off the pipe.
3.3 If the inlet pipe run is horizontal and beneath the unit ensure it does
not prevent access to the case screws.
3.4 Connect the inlet pipe to the push t connector ensuring it is fully
pushed home (28mm engagement). After connection DO NOT make soldered
joints in the pipe work close to the heater, as the heat may damage the
connector or the water heater itself.
3.5 A WRAS listed isolating valve should be tted to the cold supply to
facilitate servicing the heater.
3.6 Push t connectors are supplied to allow either bottom or rear entry of
services.

5.0 INSTALLATION - ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
WARNING:
5.1 This appliance must be earthed.
5.2 The installation, supply cable and circuit protection must conform
to the latest BS7671 ‘Requirements for electrical installations’ (IEE Wiring
Regulations).
5.3 The appliance must only be connected to a 230/240 V ac supply. A
double pole isolating switch, with a contact separation of at least 3mm in both
poles, must be incorporated in the electrical supply. The supply should be
fused 13Amp.
5.4 If the Speediboil is to be unused for signicant periods of time running
costs can be reduced by switching the unit off. It is recommended that this
is done automatically by incorporating a suitable timeswitch in the supply
to the unit. The use of an accessory No. 95 970 124 is recommended. The
timeswitch can then be set to switch the unit on for a suitable period to allow it
to heat up
ELECTRONIC CONTROL

6.1 The electronic control system of the Speediboil has a self
commissioning and calibration function. Once the heater is installed and
all services have been connected, the appliance should require no further
adjustment before use.
6.2 Check that all electrical, water and vent pipe connections have been
made and are secure.
6.3 Replace the cover and secure with the xing screws. Ensure the tank
discharge tube is centrally located in the outlet spout. Turn on water, then
electrical supply.
6.4 The READY indicator will ash to indicate the unit is in its ‘self
commissioning’ mode. The water in the unit will not be hot enough to use at
this stage (do not draw water off).
6.5 The READY indicator will continue to ash until the unit has reached
boiling and has ‘self-calibrated’. At this point the READY indicator will remain
illuminated. If for any reason the calibration procedure is interrupted it will
restart after a short delay but may result in the calibrated temperature being
too low. If this occurs switch the electrical supply OFF for several seconds and
then switch ON. The calibration sequence will reset. Wait for the READY
indicator to remain illuminated.
6.6 The unit is now ready to use, however, it is recommended that the rst
few lls be drawn off and discarded to ensure the freshness of the water.
6.7 The tap sealing washer pressure has been already set. If the tap drips
after commissioning adjust the spring tension so that the handle is just loose.
a) Remove the tap bezel after removing the two screws securing it. NOTE:
To remove the bezel, the handle will have to be operated. This will cause
water to discharge from the outlet (see page 13 item 10).
b) Tighten the tap headwork nut (turn clockwise) until the handle is just
loose. Replace bezel and securing screws. NOTE: Excessive adjustment will
dismantle the tap, if heated this would result in the uncontrollable release of
boiling water (see page 13 item 7).
6.8 Check for leaks.
6.9 IMPORTANT NOTE: Each time the unit is switched off then switched
on it will always go through the same cycle 6.4-6.5. Water should never be
drawn off the unit until commissioning is complete and the red neon light
remains solid.
6.0 COMMISSIONING

10
NOTE: Maintenance must be carried out by competent persons.
Competent - i.e. Trained, experienced, qualied.
Disconnect the electrical supply before removing the cover.
WARNING: Electronics control by switching ‘N’ (neutral), in some instances
neutral terminations will be at 230 volts with respect to earth.
7.1 The Speediboil incorporates an electronic scale conditioning function
which will reduce the rate of scale deposition in hard water areas. However,
some deposits may still occur in the storage tank; these should be periodically
removed.
7.2 The amount of usage of the unit will also determine the quantity
of scale build up. A regular inspection of the tank every 6 to 12 months will
provide longer life of the product and optimum performance (removal of the
steam plate assembly will give access to the storage tank) .
7.3 The front cover and spout will require a periodic wipe to clean any
marks/splashes from use.

10.1 Once installed, the lling and the heating cycles of the Speediboil are
completely automatic.
10.2 To dispense water, place a suitable container under the outlet spout
and pull the tap handle down and towards (or push away from) the user. The
water dispensed will at all times be boiling or close to boiling point so due
caution must be taken when using the product.
10.3 The tap handle is spring loaded so that when released it will spring
back to the “off” position (no ow).
10.4 The Speediboil is tted with one neon indicator. When the neon is
ashing the unit is commissioning (DO NOT draw water off).
When the neon is on and stays as a solid light, the unit is ready to be used.
10.5 If the store of hot water is completely withdrawn, the ow rate from the
outlet tap will reduce to the lling rate of the heater (leave for 2 minutes before
drawing any more water off). This slow ow rate allows the incoming water to
be instantly reheated, it does not indicate a fault with the water heater.
10.6 If the Speediboil is not used for a few days, the water may become
‘stale’. In these instances, it is advisable to draw off the contents and discard
the water at least twice to remove the ‘stale’ water. This will ensure that
‘freshly’ boiled water is used to make your drinks etc.
10.7 Similarly, if left unused, it is possible that some scale residue will
collect in the outlet tap. This will cause the outlet water to appear ‘milky’ for a
short while. If this condition occurs it is recommended that the rst few cups
are drawn off and discarded.
