Mains pressure water supply
The water heater is designed to operate at mains pressure by connecting directly
to the mains water supply.
The water heater is supplied with a temperature pressure relief valve with a
pressure rating of 1400 kPa. If an expansion control valve has been installed on
the cold water line to the water heater, this should have a pressure rating of
1200 kPa.
The maximum mains water supply pressure for the water heater is 1120 kPa if
an expansion control valve is not installed, or 960 kPa if an expansion control
valve is installed. If the mains supply pressure in your area exceeds these values,
a pressure limiting valve must be installed.
The supply pressure should be greater than 350 kPa for true mains pressure
operation to be achieved.

The top of the water heater is to be secured to the wall or screen with the wall
brackets provided using fasteners suitable for the wall or screen type and
