DUCTING GUIDELINES, OUTLET CHART, RETURN AIR GRILLE SIZING & ZONING
33
GOOD DUCTING GUIDLINES
Correct ductwork installation is critical to ensure correct operation of the heating system, and
to prevent premature failure of the fan and/or heat exchanger. The following must be
considered:
SUPPLY AND RETURN AIR DUCTING
zDuctwork should be adequately sized to suit the heater and installation to prevent
excessive system back pressure.
zDuct run > 6m - increase the full length of the duct run and spigot diameter by 50mm.
zDuct run > 9m - increase the full length of the duct run and spigot diameter by 100mm.
zDuctwork should be adequately supported and free from air leaks.
zVolume dampers are recommended to enable proper balancing of the system.
zBends in ducting must be as smooth as possible to minimise restriction to air flow,
recommended MINIMUM bend radii are: - 150 to 300 mm duct 1.5 duct diameters
- 350 to 400 mm duct 2 duct diameters
zThe minimum RETURN AIR DUCT length should be 3m, and should include a bend to
help reduce noise transmission along the duct.
OUTLET REGISTERS
zAt least one outlet register must be provided in all areas to be heated.
zCare should be taken to prevent cold spots, due to excessive draught or insufficient
outlets.
zThe normal position of furniture in the home must be considered when locating registers.
zThe type of register should be selected to suit the application:
- Registers installed in the floor should discharge sideways.
- Registers installed in the ceiling should discharge predominantly vertically.
RETURN AIR GRILLE LOCATION
zAlways locate the return air grille in a suitably heated area, central hallways are usually
the most suitable.
zDo not locate in a bathroom or laundry as the moisture present in these rooms may settle
on the fan when not in use.
zThe return air grille should be located so that it is unobstructed by carpets, clothing,
furniture.
zAir should not be drawn through areas that are not heated.
zIt is recommended that the return air grille is located at a low level - system performance
may be reduced if a high level return air grille is used. N.B Not Recomended above 2.7m.
zIn a zoned system, the return air grille must be located in the "common" zone, ie, in a
zone that cannot be turned off.

OUTLET CHART [1]
TH4 and TG5 model heaters can be installed and set-up to independently heat different areas
within the home, either from a single Spectrolink Comfort Control (SCC) or from up to four
independent SCC's. In each case zone dampers must be installed into selected duct runs to
allow the air flow to a zone/s to be turned on or off.
1 SCC Thermostat:
Each zone is controlled independently from a single SCC. The SCC must be located in a
"common zone", ie, a zone that cannot be turned off, and that includes the return air.
Multiple SCC thermostats:
Each zone is controlled independently from its own SCC - this allows zones to be set at
different temperatures, and to be controlled from within the zone. Each zone that has its own
SCC thermostat must include a zone damper.
ZONING - TH4 & TH5
HINTS FOR ZONED SYSTEMS
zTalk to the customer to get an understanding of their requirements.
zAllow for an outlet near the return air to prevent drafts and cold spots.
zFor 1-SCC systems ensure that the COMMON zone is always heated, even if it is only a
small air flow. The common zone must include a return air grille.
zExplain to the customer the function of the return air duct, and the need for a clear air
path to the return air grille - air cannot travel through closed doors.
zFor 1-SCC systems position the wall control in the COMMON zone.
zDO NOT in any way obstruct the flow of return air.
ZONE FAN SPEEDS
zZone fan speeds must be set to ensure an appropriate air flow for each zone. If the fan
speed is set too high for the number of outlets this may cause high air flow noise and will
not be covered under warranty.
KITS AND PARTS REQUIRED FOR ZONING
z24V zone kit P/No 077215 - to suit 24Vac zone dampers:
Kit includes - zone connection PCB, communication loom, 24Vac transformer.
z240V zone kit P/No 077208 - to suit 240Vac zone dampers:
Kit includes - zone connection PCB, communication loom, PCB connection wires.
zMultiple SCC's - one SCC is supplied with each 4 & 5 star installation accessories kit -
an additional SCC & loom is required for each additional zone
- SCC/loom kit P/No 076010.
zZone dampers and suitable wiring (not supplied by Seeley International).

ADD-ON REFRIGERATED COOLING
4 4
TH Extra Air heaters are designed for use with an add-on refrigerated cooling system - these
models include an “X” in their model numbers, eg, TH3X20, TH4X30 and TH5X32. The
following points must be taken into account to ensure correct operation of both the
refrigerated cooler and the heater.
- Ensure that the refrigerated cooling unit is sized correctly to suit the house and the heater.
- The cooling coil (evaporator) should be installed 1.5 to 2.5 m from the heater supply air
outlet.
- To prevent excessive air flow restriction, the ducting between the heater and the cooling coil
should be as straight as possible. If bends are required, use the largest bend radius
possible.
- A correctly-sized return air grille with a filter MUST be fitted when installing add-on
refrigerated cooling.
- The thermistor must be located after the cooling coil 3m along the duct from the heater
outlet, and fitted centrally in the top of the duct.

switch the cooling system on and off - this is not supplied by Braemar.
Ensure that “COOL 2” is selected during system set-up to enable the system to operate the
regfrigerated cooling system - refer to “Commissioning” section in these instructions.

SAFETY
Employers and Employees Responsibility
The installation and maintenance of gas ducted heating units, particularly at height, has the
potential to create Occupational Health and Safety issues for those involved. Installers are
advised to ensure they are familiar with relevant State and Federal legislation, such as Acts,
Regulations, approved Codes of Practice and Australian Standards, which offer practical
guidance on these health and safety issues. Compliance with these regulations will require
appropriate work practices, equipment, training and qualification of workers. Seeley
International provides the following information as a guide to contractors and employees
to assist in minimising risk.
Risk Assessment
A risk assessment of all hazardous tasks is required under legislation. A risk assessment is
an essential element that should be conducted before the commencement of work, to identify
and eliminate the risk of falls and other risks, or to minimise these risks by implementing
control measures. This does not need to be a complicated process - it is a matter of
assessing the job to be done and considering what actions are necessary so the person
doing the job does not injure themselves.
This should be considered in terms of:
zWhat are the chances of an incident occurring?
zWhat could the possible consequences be?
zWhat can be done to reduce, or better still, eliminate the risk?
Some points to consider when working on or in a roof
zWhat is the best and safest access to the roof and working areas?
zWhat condition is the roof in? Should the roof structure and surface be checked?
zDoes the worker have appropriate footwear?
zAre all power cables/extension leads safe and appropriately rated?
zAre all ladders, tools and equipment suitable and in good condition?
zWhere ladders are to be used, is there a firm, stable base for them to stand on? Can they
be tied or secured in some way at the top.
zIs there a roof anchor to attach a harness and lanyard to? If so, instruction should be
issued for the use of an approved harness or only suitably trained people used.
zAre all tools and materials being used, prevented from slipping and falling onto a person
at ground level? Is the area below the work area suitably protected to prevent people
entering this area.
zDoes the work schedule take into account weather conditions, allowing for work to be
suspended in high winds, thunder storms/lightning or other types of weather giving wet,
slippery surfaces?
zIs there an on-going safety check system of harnesses, ropes, ladders and access/lifting
equipment, and where they exist on roofs, anchor points before the commencement of
work?
zIs there a system which prevents employees from working on or in roofs if they are unwell
or under the influence of drugs or alcohol?
zAre there any special conditions to consider i.e. excessive roof pitch, limited ground area,
fragile roof, electrical power lines?
Seeley International Pty Ltd has a policy of continuous improvement and may therefore make changes to these specifications
without notice. Whilst every care has been taken to assure the accuracy of the data in this manual, Seeley International does
not assume any liability for errors and/or omissions.
