upper switch to BLUE and the lower switch to (l) or
(ll). Space Saver will run to provide a cooling flow
of air. If used in conjunction eith a remote room
thermostat, ensure the thermostat is set to
maximum.
This Space Saver is covered by a free 5-year parts
and labour guarantee. Please refer to the Fault
Finding section on page 5 for advice. In the event

User Information
Your product is covered by a free 5-year and labour guarantee; please complete and return
the Guarantee Registration Card to us as soon as possible to ensure that shouls you require
assistance, we can help you quickly and more efficently.
Your Space Saver fan convector is designed to operate as part of your central heating system in
the same way as a panel radiator. Providing the lower heat ouput switch is left in either the
normal (l) or boost position (ll) and the upper switch is in the HEATING position your Space
Saver will switch on and off automatically with your central heating system.
How your Space Saver fan convector work
Hot water from your central heating system system passes
through a heat exchanger transferring its heat to the
aluminium fins. Cooler air is drawn in by the fan and heated
as it passes through the heat exchanger before being
discharged gently back into the room. This not only gives a
more even temperature spread, but will use around 25%
less energy and heat up a room in less than half the time of
a traditional panel radiator.
Space Saver includes an internal thermostat that prevents
the fan from operating until the central heating system
water passing through the heat exchanger reaches 38° C.
This prevents the Space Saver circulating cooler air at start
up.
Heating
Ensure your central heating system is on, the lower switch
set to normal and the upper switch to heating RED.
Providing the water temperature in the system is more than
38° C and the thermostat controlling your central heating
system is calling for heat, your Space Saver will switch on.
If you require a faster warm up, move the lower switch to
boost (ll). Moving the switch to (O) will turn off the Space
Saver.

2. Fit isolating valves (not supplied) to the system
flow and return pipes. Failure to fit isolating
valves may mean that the product is not
serviceable in the event of failure. Connect the
flexible hoses between system pipework and
heater. Open the isolating valves and check for
leaks.
N.B. either pipe may be used on flow or return.

4. Isolate electrical supply and connect the
heater electric cable to the fused spur (3A).
Ensure the fused spur is not directly above the
heater and is accessible after installation is
compleate.

Commissioning
1. Turn on the electrical supply at the fused spur.
2. Set the upper control switch on the fascia grille to
BLUE and the lower switch to either l or ll. The fan
will run.
3. Turn on the central heating system.
4. Set any room thermostat/s to maximum.
5. Set the lower heat output switch to l and the
upper switch to RED –the fan should run and heat
will flow within a few minutes.
6. Balance the central heating system if Space Saver
is installed on the same circuit as panel radiators.
7. When the installation is working correctly,
remember to reset any room thermostat/s to its
normal setting
