Page 4: About Your Storage Tank
MODEL TYPE ® The Rheem Commercial hot water storage tank you have chosen can be installed indoor or outdoor and is either a 610 340 or 610 430 model. Water is stored in a vitreous enamel lined steel cylinder and heated by an external primary heating source. - Page 5 If a remote thermostat (Tankstat) is fitted to the storage tank and the electrical conduit is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Phone Rheem Service or their nearest Accredited Service Agent to arrange for an inspection.

Note: The major service and routine replacement of any components, such as the anode and relief valve(s), are not included in the Rheem warranty. A charge will be made for this work. Only genuine replacement parts should be used on this storage tank. - Page 8 7. It is very important the lever is raised and lowered gently. If water does not flow freely from the drain line when the lever is lifted, then the water heater should be checked by Rheem Service or their nearest Accredited Service Agent. The expansion control valve should be checked for performance or replaced at intervals not exceeding five (5) years, or more frequently in areas where there is a high incidence of water deposits.

If an incorrect colour coded anode is used in the storage tank, any resultant faults will not be covered by the Rheem warranty. In addition, the use of an incorrect colour coded anode may shorten the life of the storage tank cylinder. - Page 10 Where the saturation index exceeds +0.40, the water is very scaling. An expansion control valve must be fitted on the cold water line after the non-return valve to protect and for the Rheem warranty to apply to the temperature pressure relief valve and storage tank cylinder. Water which is scaling may be treated with a water softening device to reduce the saturation index of the water.
- Page 11 The storage tank and its components are not suitable for certain water chemistries. Those chemistries are listed below. If the storage tank is connected at any time to a water supply with the following water chemistry, the Rheem warranty will not cover any resultant faults on the components listed below: Water Chemistry Component Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) >...

INSTALLATION THIS STORAGE TANK IS NOT SUITABLE FOR POOL HEATING INSTALLATION STANDARDS The storage tank must be installed: by a qualified person, and in accordance with the installation instructions, and in compliance with Standard AS/NZS 3500.4 and all local codes and regulatory authority requirements. In New Zealand the installation must also conform to the New Zealand Building Code. - Page 14 INSTALLATION Note: The storage tank should not be placed in direct contact with a concrete surface that is less than two months old and not fully cured as this may attack the metal coating of the storage tank base. A moisture barrier should be used between the two surfaces in this instance.
- Page 15 INSTALLATION HOT WATER DELIVERY This storage tank can deliver water at temperatures which can cause scalding. It is necessary and we recommend that a temperature limiting device be fitted between the storage tank and the hot water outlets in any ablution and public areas such as bathrooms, ensuites or public amenities to reduce the risk of scalding.
- Page 16 A temperature limiting device cannot be installed in circulated hot water flow and return pipe work unless it is specifically designed to do so, such as the Rheem Guardian warm water system. The tempered water from a temperature limiting device cannot be circulated. Where a circulated hot water flow and return system is required in a building, a temperature limiting device can only be installed on a dead leg, branching off the circulated hot water flow and return pipe.
- Page 17 If an incorrect colour coded anode is used in the storage tank, any resultant faults will not be covered by the Rheem warranty. In addition, the use of an incorrect colour coded anode may shorten the life of the storage tank cylinder.
