THIS WATER HEATER IS NOT SUITABLE FOR POOL HEATING.
SOLAR COLLECTORS
The 52L tank is suitable for installation with Rheem Australis or Titan solar collectors and the 52H tank is
suitable for installation with Rheem S200, Australis or Titan solar collectors.
In Australia, systems with Australis or S200
collectors are suitable for installation in all climate
zones.
In Australia for climate zones 1, 2, and 3 there is a
risk that systems with Titan collectors may over
perform. We recommend that in climate zones 1, 2,
and 3 Titan systems, with 2 or more collectors, only
be installed at orientations between 60° and 90°
from the equator.
In Australia in climate zone 4, systems with
selective surface Titan collectors provide optimum
performance compared with non selective surface
collectors, particularly in the months of lower solar
radiation.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Working on roofs is and should always be considered a hazardous activity, particularly early in the
