  • Page 22: Discharge

    Installation 6.2.4 Discharge It is a requirement of Building Regulation G3 that any discharge from an unvented system is conveyed to where it is visible, but will not cause danger to persons in or about the building. The tundish and discharge pipes should be fitted in accordance with the requirements and guidance notes of Building Regulation G3.
  • Page 23 Installation Note To comply with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations, the tundish should incorporate a suitable air gap. 3.55 Any discharge should be visible at the tundish. In addition, where discharges from safety devices may not be apparent, e.g. in dwellings occupied by people with impaired vision or mobility, consideration should be given to the installation of a suitable safety device to warn when discharge takes place, e.g.

  • Page 28: Flow Performance

    Commissioning 7.3.2 Flow performance When initially opening hot outlets a small surge in flow may be noticed as pressures stabilise. This is quite normal with unvented systems. In some areas cloudiness may be noticed in the hot water. This is due to aeration of the water, is quite normal and will quickly clear.
  • Page 29: Maintenance

    Maintenance Maintenance General 8.1.1 Maintenance requirements Unvented hot water systems have a continuing maintenance requirement in order to ensure safe working and optimum performance. It is essential that the relief valve(s) are periodically inspected and manually opened to ensure no blockage has occurred in the valves or discharge pipework.
