Home Owners Guide & Safety Instructions - Bosch BSS250E-2 Installation And User Manual

HOME OWNER USER GUIDELINES
IF THE HOT WATER SYSTEM IS NOT USED FOR TWO WEEKS OR MORE, A QUANTITY
OF HIGHLY FLAMMABLE HYDROGEN GAS MAY ACCUMULATE IN THE WATER HEATER.
TO DISSIPATE THIS GAS SAFELY, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT A HOT TAP BE TURNED
ON FOR SEVERAL MINUTES OR UNTIL DISCHARGE OF GAS CEASES. USE A SINK,
BASIN, OR BATH OUTLET, BUT NOT A DISHWASHER, CLOTHES WASHER, OR OTHER
APPLIANCE.
DURING THIS PROCEDURE, THERE MUST BE NO SMOKING, OPEN FLAME, OR ANY
ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE OPERATING NEARBY. IF HYDROGEN IS DISCHARGED
THROUGH THE TAP, IT WILL PROBABLY MAKE AN UNUSUAL SOUND AS WITH AIR
ESCAPING.
ABOUT YOUR HEATER
The 'Bosch' solar water heater storage tank installed at ground or floor level, remotely from
the solar collectors. As the sun heats the water in the solar collectors the increase in
temperature activates the water circulator (Pump). The water pump switches on whenever the
water in the solar collectors is hotter than the water in the tank. Cooler water from the solar
storage tank is circulated to the solar collectors to be heated by the sun‟s energy. This
process continues while solar energy is available and will stop if the water in the panels gets
cooler than the water in the tank or if the storage tank reaches its maximum set point.
The solar storage tank is suitable for either outdoor or indoor installation. This system is not
suitable for installation in areas that experience prolonged sub-zero temperatures without
power supply, but does offer a basic freeze protection for the panels in „power out‟ situations. If
you need assistance determining whether your area is suitable for this solar system, please
