Cold Water Connection
It is mandatory to fit the following items
between the supply main and the
RP¾"/20mm socket in the water heater.
• an isolating valve
• a non return valve
• a line strainer
• a union
All fittings must be approved by the
relevant Authority and in accordance to
the plumbing code.
Note for S.A. and W.A.:
It is a state
requirement that a pressure relief
valve be fitted on the cold water
supply line between the non re-
turn valve and the water heater.
Hot Water Connection
The hot water line should be connected
to the “OUTLET” socket on the tank.
Insulation of Pipes
All hot water pipes
must
be insulated
with UV stabilized insulation.
Temperature Protection
All water heaters have the ability to
produce hot water very quickly. To
reduce the risk of scald injury, it is
mandatory under the requirements of
Australian Standard AS/NZS3500.4.2
that a suitably approved temperature
control device, such as a tempering
valve, be fitted to the hot water supply
to outlets used primarily for personal
hygiene.
Plumbing Connections
Note:
a combined isolating valve/non-return valve/line strainer may be used.
