penetration of fluids) in accordance with the regulations currently in force.
• Install the unit as close as possible to the point of use to reduce heat
loss from the pipes.
• Choose a location which does not obstruct doors and passageways.
• Do not install near to sources of heat, steam or inflammable gas.
• In case of leakage, the coolant could form toxic gasses if it comes into
direct contact with open flames.
• Child-proof the area around the area, thus preventing access.
