• 2 lifting eyebolts on the upper part of the tanks allow them to be positioned by a
crane. using tapping connections is prohibited since damage would be caused to
the internal coating.
• Place the tank and its safety unit (and/or safety valve) sheltered from frost.
• Position it as close as possible to the main draw-off points.
• If it is placed outside the inhabited area, insulate the pipes. If the equipment is to be
installed in a room where the ambient temperature is always over 35°C, provide ventilation
for the room.
• Ensure that the support element is suitable to hold the weight of the tank when it is full of
water.
• Provide opposite the cover a minimum space of 1 metre opposite the flange (or the
manhole) for periodic tank maintenance.
• Install a retention tank with the drainer under the tank when it is placed in an attic or above
inhabited dwellings.
• The safety unit and/or safety valve must be accessible.
• A sewer drain equipped with a gripper is necessary.
• The lower tapping connection allows the tanks to be completely drained.
• The tanks only work in vertical position.
