Storage Tank Installation and Operation Manual
This manual is intended to cover installation, operation, and
maintenance procedures for Lochinvar's Heat Pump Storage
Tank.
If questions are not answered by this manual, or if specific
installation, operation, and/or maintenance procedures are not
clearly understood, contact Lochinvar for clarification before
proceeding.
Heat Pump Storage Tanks are designed for indoor use only.
It should be located on a level surface (no more than one-half
degree of slope), capable of supporting the total weight of the
unit when filled to capacity.
The unit should be mounted to the floor following applicable
architectural and local code requirements for the specific
installation site.
The high quality enamel paint, applied to the jacket of the
unit, will provide years of protection against corrosion. If it is
necessary to clean the outside of the unit, a mild cleaning agent
should be used that will not damage the paint.
For all piping connections, the use and/or type of joint
compound or sealer on the joints should be determined
by referring to local codes, accepted standards, and/or the
requirements of the installing contractor.
