INSTALLATION STANDARDS
The water heater must be installed:

by a qualified person, and

in accordance with the installation instructions, and

in compliance with Standards AS/NZS 3500.4 and AS/NZS 5601.1, all local
codes and regulatory authority requirements.

WATER HEATER APPLICATION
This water heater is designed for use in a single family domestic dwelling for the
purpose of heating potable water. Its use in an application other than this may
shorten its life.
If this water heater is to be used where an uninterrupted hot water supply is
necessary for the application or business, then there should be back-up
redundancy within the hot water system design. This should ensure the continuity
of hot water supply in the event that this water heater was to become inoperable
for any reason. We recommend you provide advice to the system owner about
their needs and building back-up redundancy into the hot water supply system.
Note: AS 3498 requires that a water heater provides the means to inhibit the
growth of Legionella bacteria in potable water. This water heater can satisfy this
AS 3498 requirement provided it is operating and the thermostat setting is 60°C
or higher, including when it is used as an in-series booster water heater for a
solar water heater.
