8  Maintenance

Electricity!

Only perform maintenance work on the 
pump group if the voltage supply has been 
disconnected.

Hot water!

Severe scalds possible.

Do not reach into the hot water when 
emptying the pump group.

Ensure that the pump group has cooled 
down before carrying out maintenance, 
cleaning and repair work.

Install a suitable scald protection device 
at every tapping point (for example, safety 
shut-off valve or thermostat mixer tap).

More detailed information on scald 
protection can be found in DIN 1988, sheet 
2, clause 4.2.

Hot surfaces!

Serious burns possible.

Do not touch the pipelines or the 
components during operation.

Ensure that the pump group has cooled 
down before carrying out maintenance, 
cleaning and repair work.

Wear heat-resistant safety gloves if it 
is necessary to carry out work on hot 
components.

The maintenance of the pump group must 
only be carried out by trained personnel who 
have been authorized by the manufacturer.

8.1  Annual maintenance intervals

1. General visual inspections

•   Check the station for leaks and retighten sealing connec-

tions or replace seals, as required.

2. Functional checks

•  Check that settings and operating and performance 

parameters are set correctly.

•   Check flow noise during operation.

•   Ask users if there are any noticeable problems.

3. Ball taps

•   Check that stop valves and ball taps can move freely.

4. Pump

•  Pay attention to the noise of the pump.

5. Thermostatic mixing valve

•  Check the thermostatic mixing valve  for function.

7. Actions following maintenance work

•   Check that all screw fittings that were unscrewed have 

been retightened and retighten if necessary.

•   Remove all tools, materials and other equipment used from 

the working area.

•   Vent the system.

8.2  Replacement of wear parts

Please note that the pump group contains parts that, for 
technical reasons, are subject to wear depending on the 
intensity of use, even if the specified care and maintenance 
have been observed. 

This especially applies to mechanical parts and parts that 
could come into contact with water and steam, for example, 
hoses, seals, valves, etc. 

By their nature, defects as the result of wear do not represent 
a fault and therefore are not covered by the warranty or the 
guarantee. Nevertheless, these defects and malfunctions 
must only be remedied by trained specialist personnel. 

Contact your specialist dealer for this.
