Installation Instructions state
SUPPLY CABLE IS NOT SUPPLIED WITH THIS APPLIANCE AND IT
SHOULD THEREFORE BE INSTALLED BY A COMPETENT
ELECTRICIAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE IEE REGULATIONS.
It sounds like you do not qualify. Get a man in./
The heater will need to be connected to a 13A supply in the bathroom through a double pole isolator. Do you have one? If not you'll need a competent registered electrician to fit one. He will also need to install an RCD to comply with BS 7671.
