4-3.11 Cylinder Drain
See fig. 4-3.e.
The unvented cylinder cold feed is also used as the cylinder drain. Inside the cylinder a
syphon pipe is fitted; when a hose is used to drain the cylinder a syphon action will drain
maximum water from the cylinder.
Always use a hose for flushing and cleaning the cylinder.
It is not possible to fully drain the cylinder without using a hose.
4-3.12 Secondary Return
A secondary return may be fitted to unvented cylinders (consult the label on the face of
the unit for the correct location). A *non-return valve must be fitted to prevent back flow
and a *bronze pump will be required in conjunction with a *pipe thermostat and timer to
circulate the hot water (*not supplied).
Note
An extra expansion vessel may be required where the additional volume of the secondary return exceeds
the capacity of the expansion vessel supplied.
