The tundish and discharge pipes should be fi...
  • Page 21 Installation 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 impai- red 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: Starting Up

    Starting Up SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS TO FILL THE TANK Essential instructions for the safety of persons and the environment • The DHW tank must always be filled and pressurised before filling and pressurising the primary circuit. • Do not use vehicle antifreeze. This can cause serious injury or death, or damage facilities.
  • Page 29: Filling

    Starting Up FILLING Essential instruction for the correct operation of the system • The DHW tank must always be filled and pressurised before filling and pressurising the primary circuit. FILLING THE DHW TANK (Figure 1) General remark • Connect the safety valve outlet to the sewer. To fill the tank, open a hot water tap (2) located at the highest point of the system.
  • Page 30 Starting Up Vertical installation on a wall FILLING THE PRIMARY CIRCUIT (Figure 2) General remark • If the tank is used within a heating system, refer to the heating boiler manual. Check that the drain valve (3) of your primary circuit is tightly closed. Open the stop valves (1) and (2) of the primary circuit connected to the heating boiler.
  • Page 31: Checks Before Starting Up

    Starting Up CHECKS BEFORE STARTING UP • Check that the safety valves (DHW and primary) are correctly installed and that the out- lets are connected to the sewer. • Check that the DHW tank and the primary circuit are filled with water. •...
  • Page 32: Maintenance

    Maintenance PERIODIC CHECKS BY THE USER • Check the pressure of the primary circuit pressure gauge: it should be between 0.5 and 1.5 bar. • Visually inspect, on a regular basis, the valves, connections and accessories in order to detect any leaks or malfunction. •...

  • Page 34: Bringing Back Into Service After Maintenance

    Connect the drain valve (2) to the sewer using a flexible hose. Open the drain valve (2) and drain the water from the primary circuit to the drain. Open the tank’s air bleed valve (3) to accelerate drainage. Maintenance Close the drain valve (2) and air bleed valve (3) after draining the tank. DRAINING THE DHW TANK (Figure 4) To drain the hot water heater’s DHW tank: Open fully the hot water tap (3) for at least 60 minutes to make sure the DHW tank has...
