A support member for a heater coil

摘要

A support (10) for a hot water cylinder heating coil (13) is disclosed. The support (10) is connectable to the coil (13) and so sized to span the cylinder and to engage the internal walls of the cylinder. The support reduces the torque forces experienced by the coil (13). The support can have a number of arms extending from a central region and the ends of the arms can be profiled to better engage the cylinder. Connection of the support to the coil can be by means of a tie or clip, the support including one or more through apertures to facilitate fixing.
