    6 INSTALLATION Step 1: Remove the Mainsboost vessel from its packaging and check to ensure it is not damaged. WARNING: depending on vessel size this may require two people to complete safely. Ensure the floor is sufficiently strong enough to take the total weight of the unit when full of water (see Technical Specification section).
