▪
Drainage – Low points.
Provide drain taps at all low points of the system in order
to allow complete drainage of the water circuit.
▪
Drainage – Pressure relief valves.
Provide a proper drain for the pressure relief
valves (of both the domestic hot water tank and the domestic hot water tank kit)
to avoid water spillage around the unit. For the discharge piping connected to
these valves, respect the requirements from the table below. For more
information, see
"7.5.4 To connect the water piping for domestic hot
Item
Requirement
Pressure relief valve diameter
15 mm
Discharge pipe diameter (to pressure relief valve)
15 mm
Discharge piping diameter (from tundish)
22 mm
Discharge piping material (from tundish)
Metal
Vertical length below tundish, before first elbow or bend
≥300 mm
Continuous fall after first elbow or bend
≥1:200
Maximum resistance
(a)
≤9 m
Resistance created by each elbow or bend
0.8 m
(a) The maximum allowed resistance (i.e. equivalent length) is expressed as a length of
straight pipe (i.e. no elbows or bends).
NOTICE
All piping MUST be installed according to section G3 of the Building Regulations.
▪
Drainage – Pressure relief valve.
Connect the drain hose properly to the drain to
avoid water dripping out of the unit. See
"7.4.4 To connect the drain hose to the
74].
▪
Air vents.
Provide air vents at all high points of the system, which must also be
easily accessible for servicing. Two automatic air purges are provided in the
indoor unit. Check that the air purges are NOT tightened too much, so that
automatic release of air in the water circuit is possible.
▪
Zn-coated parts.
Never use zinc coated parts in the water circuit. Because the
internal water circuit of the unit uses copper piping, excessive corrosion may
occur.
