1 IMPORTANT FACTS: READ BEFORE COMMENCING INSTALLATION
A. Water storage capacity.
1.11 The iBoost +200 has a usable water volume of approximately 200 litres; the
length of time the iBoost delivers water will be dependent on the usage and refill
rates.
B. Water temperature
This unit is designed to offer extended water storeage and not exceed the following
values:
1.12 The maximum allowable water temperature is 23 oC (see Section 7.13).
1.13 The minimum allowable water temperature is 4 oC.
C. Pipework - General
1.14 Secure pipework: Ensure pipework to and from pump is independently
supported & clipped to prevent forces being transferred to inlet and outlet
branches of pump. Do not secure pipework to the iBoost, this will cause
damage and possible leakage.
1.15 Flux: Solder joints must be completed and flux residues removed prior to iBoost
installation (flux damage will void any warranty).
1.16 Pipework design: Care should be taken in the design of pipework runs to
minimize the risk of air locks e.g. use drawn bends rather than 90obends.
1.17 DO NOT introduce solder flux to flexible hose, tank, pump or any parts
manufactured from plastic.
1.18 DO NOT allow contact with oil or cellulose based paints, paint thinners or
strippers, acid based descalents or aggressive cleaning agents.
1.19 DO NOT bend the flexible hose beyond 30o. It must be installed as
straight as possible.
D. Plumbing Installation Regulations
1.20 The plumbing installation must comply with the current water and building
regulations.
1.21 The plumbing installation must be installed by a qualified person.

2 LOCATION - GENERAL
2.11 Access: The iBoost +200 must be easily accessible.
2.12 Protection: The iBoost must be located in a dry, frost free area.
The iBoost must not be installed in a loft space.
2.13 Water retention: Site the iBoost in a location where in the unlikely
event of a water leak, any spillage is contained or routed to avoid
electrics or areas sensitive to water damage.
2.14 Supply inlet pressure: The water supply inlet pressure must be lower than
7 bar; lower supply inlet pressures will reduce the tank fill rate.
2.15 Ambient temperature: The iBoost must be sited in a location where the
ambient temperature does not exceed 30 oC (see Section 7.11 - Water
Quality).
2.16 Preferred iBoost location: The preferred iBoost +200 location is immediately
adjacent to the iBoost unit on a smooth level floor of sufficient strength to
support the combined filled weight.
Only one iBoost +200 supplementary tank can be connected to
an iBoost 200 master unit.
Ensure there is sufficient room above the iBoost to allow the removal and
servicing of the internal float valve if needed, typically 350 mm.

4 INSTALLATION
4.11 Mains water connection to iBoost: The iBoost +200 is to be permanently
connected to the mains water supply using rigid pipe or suitably sized and rated
flexible hose to comply with current building and plumbing regulations.
The water tank fill valve has a G ½ male threaded fitting; a suitable 90oelbow
type fitting must be used. When tightening ensure the fill valve within the tank
is not rotated. If the valve is rotated it may not function correctly with the risk of
flooding.
Ensure there is a demountable joint in the pipe to allow the removal of the iBoost
if needed (see Fig. 15).
4.12 Water outlet pipework:
The iBoost +200 is supplied with a kit for connecting it to an iBoost 200 unit,
side to side.
If a greater distance between the units is required then a longer hose will need to
be sourced.
4.13 Connection to overflow/warning pipe: The overflow fitting is designed to use
1 ¼ " (35 mm OD) plastic waste pipe. Ensure there is a demountable joint in the
pipe to allow the removal of the iBoost if needed (see Fig. 15). The overflow must
be free to vent to atmosphere either via a tundish or a dedicated external pipe.
The overflow for the +200 unit is to be kept separate from the existing iBoost 200
unit’s overflow.
4.14 The iBoost is intended to be installed as a freestanding unit with its back
to a wall.
All the services are connected to the iBoost via a plumbing access window at the
back of the unit, the installation is conducted in 3 simple steps.
Prior to installation remove the screw on the top of the unit and pull the corner of
the front cover to remove it and retain them in a safe place.
Step 1 Preparation:
a) If connecting to an already installed iBoost 200 unit, then drain the water out
of the tank. It needs to be empty in order to connect the +200 unit to it.
b) The kit provided is for side connection only, back connection is possible
with additional fittings and longer hose (not supplied). The supplied hose
provides a maximum gap between the units of approximately 262 mm (from
tank to tank). Measure the gap and check there is enough space to fit the
secondary unit in place.

c) First step is to decide where your preferred connection should be, either the
side or the rear of the tanks then mark the centre point location on both units
(iBoost +200 and iBoost 200).
Note: Later models will have pre-marked centres on the tank.
Step 2 Fitting of the tank connector:
a) Mark 2 circles approximately on both tanks using the previous location as
their centres. One for the hole at 65 mm diameter and the other to add fitting
at 89 mm diameter.
b) Cut a hole in both tanks using a 65 mm diameter hole cutter using the centre
points marked previously. Take care not to allow debris to fall into the tank
and keep cut edge free from burrs and hole as near to size as possible.
c) Straighten the wire holder and pass through body as shown. Then, whilst
holding the wire in one hand, manipulate the flanged end of the body into the
hole. This is easily done if one lug is inserted at a time, turning the body from
left to right.

d) Whilst taking care not to drop/lose the wire holder inside the tank, thread the
split washer onto the wire holder and then with the aid of the split, insert the
washer into the hole in a spiral manner. Place washer into the body and
against the flange.
e) Thread the rubber washer followed by the ‘O’-ring onto the wire holder
and push them through the hole and onto the body until they are against the
copper washer.
Note: The ‘O’-ring is to help position the flange in the hole due to material
thickness in order to aid sealing.
f) The whole assembly can now be pulled into position by pulling gently on the
wire holder.
Note: Take care to see that the body is in the centre of the hole, using the
outer marked circle as a guide.
g) Holding the fitting firmly in position, add the second rubber washer and brass
washer. Screw the nut onto the end of the thread. Apply jointing compound
(not supplied) to thread before screwing up.
Note: Before tightening the joint make sure the connection is within the outer
guide circle previously marked and then make the joint as tight as possible.

h) Remove the wire holder from the tank by pulling it through. DO NOT allow
for it to fall inside. Repeat steps C - H to fit the second flange in the other
tank.
Step 3 Connecting the tanks:
a) Apply appropriate sealer such as threadlock or PTFE tape to each hose
connector and screw one into each tank connector.
b) Position the paper installation template on the wall alongside the existing unit
where the iBoost +200 is to be installed, approximately 262 mm away from
existing tank. Ensure the ‘floor level’ of the template is level and resting on
the surface the iBoost is to be mounted on (Fig. 13).

6 MAINTENANCE
6.11 Water quality: The iBoost has been manufactured to the highest standard from
WRAS approved materials.
As with any stored volume of water; in order to ensure that the water remains
fit for use the water temperature needs to remain below 20 oC. The quality of
stored water will deteriorate with time and temperature. Bacterial growth is
dependent on the water temperature, growth rates will be higher when the
conditions are warm.
If the water remains unused for long periods of time, the tank should be drained
and flushed through. The tank should be cleaned on an annual basis to protect
against bacterial growth. If the iBoost is installed in a rental property, it must be
maintained in line with current Health & Safety regulations.
6.12 The tank can be drained by isolating the mains water supply to the fill valve and
using the pump to pump the water out of the tank.
6.13 Front cover cleaning: The front cover is made from acrylic capped ABS, it
must only be cleaned with warm soapy water or mild detergent.
Do not use abrasive cleaners. The front cover is supplied with clear protective
film in place, this can be removed by lifting at the edge.

Cont ...
6.14 Float fill valve: The float level is factory set but if in time the water level in the
tank is found to be too high, the level can be adjusted by moving the float
assembly on the arm of the fill valve down (see Fig. 21). Access the float fill
valve by removing the lid of the tank (see Section 3 - Key Features). This is done
by loosening the M6 retaining screw and sliding the float assembly down
(reduce dimension X), the M6 screw is then retightened ensuring the float is still
in line with the arm.
