    The Quantum compact model has an air conditioning coil as the cold side of the refrigeration circuit. This coil absorbs the heat from air that is forced through it by means of the fan. The Compact design is installed like a conventional electric water heater i.e.

    400mm above the top of the water heater (if possible) for clearance to replace the anode. The water heater should be placed on a 650mm x 650mm plinth if installed on a floor subject to wet conditions or outdoors. A properly drained overflow tray should be used where property damage could occur from water spillage.
  • Page 8: 3A.2: Corrosion Protection

    The evaporator drain on both the Compact and Split Air units should be drained to a suitable location. This can be accomplished with a length of hose or pipe but must not be connected directly to the PTR valve or expansion valve drain.

    4b: Water Quality Your Quantum water heater has been manufactured to suit the water conditions of most Australian metropolitan supplies. Please note that harsh water supplies can have a detrimental effect on the water heater and its life expectancy. If you are unsure about your water quality you can obtain information from your local water supply authority.
  • Page 15: 5B: Important Note Regarding Ptr Valve

    The water tank must not be drilled or punctured. Drilled holes or punctures may damage the refrigeration pipes located on the skin of the water tank. The Quantum tank is a patented design and in fact forms the condenser of the unit; i.e. it is the hot side of the refrigeration circuit. The coils wound around the outside wall of the tank heat the tank more efficiently than any other water heater design.
