GOING ON HOLIDAY?
If you plan to be away from home for one or two nights, we suggest you leave
the water heater switched on. However, if you plan to stay away more than a
few nights, conserve energy by switching the water heater off at the isolating
switch.
HOW DO I KNOW IF THE WATER HEATER IS INSTALLED CORRECTLY?
Installation requirements are shown on
be installed by an authorised person and the installation must comply with
National Standards AS/NZS 3500.4, AS/NZS 3000 and all local codes and
regulatory authority requirements. In New Zealand the installation must
conform with the New Zealand Building Code.
Warning: Temperature controllers must not be fitted to a continuous flow
water heater when a Water Star water heater is installed because water at a
temperature much higher than the controller setting can be delivered. If a Water
Star is installed to an existing continuous flow water heater installation, then all
controllers must be disconnected and removed.

water chemistries may have detrimental effects on the cylinder and fittings. If
you are in a known harsh water area

water temperature (inlet and outlet) and the water usage pattern. However,
