Does the product have to be installed vertically?

No; I suspect the reason they suggest vertically is to insure consistent fluid flow through the chamber [it also makes it easier to change the bulb and possibly glass sleeve]. If you have to install horizontally or at a diagonal it should be fine -- just make sure you can service the thing (a year goes by quickly and you should change the bulb annually). Good Luck!

The ideal installation is vertical, with the inlet at the bottom and the outlet at the top (side).

That is the most ideal way. Water entering on the bottom and exiting on top. However, I know may installers that have use it horizontally with good results. The biggest factor would be actual flow rates being treated.

The manual says that the system can be installed either vertically (inlet port at the bottom) or horizontally but the vertical installation is preferred.

The directions say either way but vertical is best . That's the way I installed it and it went very well . Very happy with light .

When I researched this the answer is NO . However it is the preferred method. I think mainly because of maintenance issues when changing out the light or cleaning off the glass , much easier vertically.

Yes, it can be installed vertically up or down as well as horizontally. I installed mine pointing down just as you want to.

Sorry, not sure. It was a gift purchase. I know that the person I got if for really liked it. It can be used both horizontally and vertically. Good luck.

I have it mounted horizontally, can't remember if it could be turned vertically.

Though the instructions leaflet came with the box only indicates that it can only be installed horizontally. But I personally feel that it can be installed vertically as well.

No, the heater should NOT be mounted vertically, as per manufacturers instructions, horizontal only.

Only vertically. You need to figure out how far away to place the projector before you try to mount it to the ceiling.

Yes, you can. It is advertised as being able to be used either way, and also says so in the manual. I have two that are mounted vertically and have no issues with them. :)

As with all the other responses, mine are installed vertically. Since they mount in from the back side, you'll be able to spin them 360-degrees from the front and align their position before you tighten them down (again from the back).

The top of this unit is open; the wood unit hangs on the bell unit. So No, you cannot install this vertically.

Yes can be installed vertically or horizontally. No extra stuff - just need a few screws. The trick is to hid the wire required to power it. i have attached a 3 inch ribbon down the center of the frame and hidden the wire behind it. Actually looks sort of cool and not that goofy

I have mine installed horizontally, and it would be no issue mounting it vertically either. As long as itmounted "between" two studs, you could almost mount it anywhere.(and it sounds very good also)

I see no reason that this couldn't be installed vertically. In fact I think it's a good idea. Why didn't I think of that?!

I have mine vertical with no problem, however I have a fan on it. The cooler you keep the bulb the longer it will last.

I had never tried it vertically but in answer to your question I did and it does work!

No, I installed it straight, but it can be installed at an angle. It does have it's limitations, but as long as you anchor it properly, it should be fine.

we did not mount them vertically, but as long as the panel receives direct sunlight they should be okay. Even when placed horizontally, if the panel is obstructed from direct sunlight they will not work.
