PUTTING INTO OPERATION
After connecting a storage tank to the water main, the hot water heating system, the electric network, and
after testing its safety valve (based on the valve manual attached), the storage tank may be put into
operation.
PROCEDURE:
a)
Check water and electric installation as well as the installation to a hot water heating system. Check
proper placement of operating and safety thermostat sensors. The sensors must be inserted all the
way in; first the thermostat and then the safety fuse.
b)
Open the hot water valve on the combination faucet.
c)
Open the cold water inlet valve to the storage tank.
d)
When the water starts flowing through the hot water valve, the filling of the storage tank is finished
and the valve needs to be closed.
e)
Should a leak (of the flange lid) occur, we recommend tightening the screws of the flange lid.
f)
Fasten the electric installation cover.
g)
When heating service water heating by
electric energy,
turn on the electricity (the heating water
inlet to the heating insert must be closed).
h)
When heating the water with
thermal energy
from a hot water heating system, turn off the
electricity and open the valves at the inlet and outlet of heating water or bleed the exchanger.
i)
When commencing operation, flush the storage tank until the cloudiness in the water is gone.
j)
Make sure to fill in properly the warranty certificate.

STORAGE TANK CLEANING AND ANODE ROD EXCHANGE
Repetitive water heating causes limestone sediment on both the enamelled tank walls and chiefly the
flange lid. The sedimentation depends on the hardness of water heated, its temperature, and amount of
hot water consumed.
We recommend checking and cleaning the tank from scale and eventual replacement of
the anode rod after two years of operation
.
The anode life is theoretically calculated for two years of operation; however, it changes with water
hardness and chemical composition in the place of use. Based on such an inspection, the next term of
anode rod exchange may be determined. Have the company in charge of service affairs clean and exchange
the anode. When discharging water from the storage tank, the mixing valve of the hot water tap must be
open in order to avoid creating underpressure that would prevent water discharge.
