DOMESTIC HOT WATER CONNECTION
2.2.3.1
Pressure reducer
If the water mains pressure is greater than 6 bar, a pressure
reducer calibrated to 4.5
bar must be fitted.
2.2.3.2
Safety unit
The tank safety unit must be ACV approved and calibrated to 7
bar.
The valve discharge must be connected to the sewer drain.
2.2.3.3
Hot water expansion tank
Installing a hot water expansion tank avoids any risk of pressure
surges due to water-hammer.
2.2.3.4
Hot water circulation
If the tank is situated a long way from the point of use, then
installing a closed return circuit can provide a faster supply of
hot water always available.
