HOT WATER DELIVERY TEMPERATURE

Local regulations and/or the requirements of AS/NZS 3500.4 must be considered regarding the temperature
limitations of hot water supplied to areas used primarily for personal hygiene. The temperature of water to these
areas is limited to 45°C for early childhood centres, primary and secondary schools and nursing homes or similar
facilities for young, aged, sick or people with disabilities and 50°C for all other buildings. To comply with these
requirements, a temperature limiting device, such as a thermostatic mixing or tempering valve, will be required on
all solar hot water systems as detailed below.
