Notes:
1. Noritz recommends the use of an Isolation Kit with
the installation.
These kits include an integrated shut-off and service
valve with unions and a pressure relief valve.
Air Handler
2. Size the pump to provide a maximum of 2 GPM
(7.5 L/min.) with a head pressure equal to the loss
through the water heater and Air Handler.
3. Check valve required if it is not included with the pump.
4. Set the flow switch to deactivate the Air Handler when
the domestic hot water flow reaches 2 GPM (7.5 L/min.).
Adjust as necessary to prevent cycling.
5. If the system requires water for space heating at a higher
temperature than for other uses, means such as a
mixing valve shall be provided to temper the water for
the other uses to help prevent scalding.
6. Expansion tank required if a backflow preventer is installed.
7. The water heater cannot be used for space heating
applications only.
8. Only POTABLE water may be plumbed through
the water heater.

Mixing Valve(*5)
Notes:
1. Size the pump to provide a maximum of 1.5GPM
(5.7L/min.) through the system at 10ft (0.3m) of
head plus piping losses.
Adjust the flow using a globe valve and verify the
flow rate with the maintenance monitors.
2. Set the Aquastat to 10˚F below the set output temperature.
An aquastat is the minimum pump control requirement
in order to maintain the full recirculation waranty.
3. Noritz recommends the use of an Isolation Kit
with the installation.
These kits include an integrated shut-off and service
valve with unions and a pressure relief valve.
