Hot water
▀
The hot water is prepared in the accumulator tank. The cold
water is led through one or more coils in the tank. The cold
water is heated in the coils from the surrounding tempera-
ture in the tank. It is then mixed in the mixing valve (1) to
reach a comfortable temperature for usage. In order to have
the best hot water comfort the flow should be 3-4 gallons
per minute.
If the flow is to high it is hard to obtain all heat stored in the
tank and makes you fire your boiler sooner.
In flow-through coils no legionella bacterias can be formed.

Valve combination
The valve combination is used to keep an even temperature and not reach a scalding tempera-
ture in your tap points. To increase temperture turn (1) to +. You may have to reduce the flow
through the coils with the valve(6). There is a safety valve (9) which releases water through the
drain pipe (10) if the pressure is too high. Make sure that the drain pipe have runoff to a floor
drain.
