Heat pump tank hydraulic and wiring connections  

10.2.1

 

Hydraulic connections  

The incoming mains water supply must be capable of delivering a minimum flow of 20 litres 
per  minute  at  a  dynamic  pressure  of  1.5bar  at  all  times.    This  should  be  sufficient  for  the 
operation of most sanitary appliances.  

a.

 

A minimum of 22mm copper mains supply pipe work should be  installed, it may be 
necessary to use larger diameter pipe for long pipe runs. 

b.

 

If the mains pressure is likely to exceed 3 bar at any time a pressure reducing valve 
must be installed. 

c.

 

A full-bore isolation valve must be fitted to the incoming mains water supply to allow 
the tank cold water outlets to be isolated if required. 

d.

 

The  incoming  mains  water  pipework  should  be  split  to  serve  both  the  hot  water 
storage tank and cold-water outlet taps after the full-bore isolation valve. 

e.

 

To  protect  the  public  water  network  from  backflow  contamination  a  double  check 
valve must be installed.  

f.

 

Care should be taken to ensure the direction arrow on the side of the double check 
valve follows the direction of flow. 

g.

 

To  accommodate  expansion  of  the  water  in  the  mains  supply  pipework  it  is 
recommended that a mini expansion vessel (1-2 litres) or shock arrestor should to be 
fitted.
