General:
It is recommended that all hot water pipes
are insulated. Hot water pipes installed
outdoors should be insulated with UV
stabilised insulation.
Plastic pipes or fittings shall not be
used within 1 metre of the outlet although
they may be used downstream of a
temperature control valve. Refer to
AS/NZS 3500.4 for further details.
Hot Water Connection:
The hot water pipe is to be connected to
the RP¾”(DN20) socket marked “OUTLET”
on the left hand side of the water heater
towards the top.
Temperature Protection:
Solar water heaters can produce very hot
water. To reduce the risk of scald injury,
AS/NZS 3500.4 requires that an approved
temperature control device is fitted to the
hot water supply to outlets used primarily for
personal hygiene.
This device should be checked at regular
intervals to ensure its operation and settings
remain correct.
An RMC MIX15U HeatGuard Ultra Tempering
Valve is supplied in the Accessories Kit.
Please refer to the Installation Instructions
included with the tempering valve.
