NOTICE

An appropriate safety device against

overpressure on the domestic water supply side must be 
installed on site in accordance with the current local water 
quality regulations. 

 

h

If shut-off valves are fitted between the domestic fresh water unit 
and the safety valve, these must be secured against tampering 
during operation by appropriate means (e.g. sealing wire or 
locking plate).

8.  Fit suitable shut-off valves to the connections (items A, B, C 

and D) on the domestic fresh water unit.

9.  Connect the fittings on the domestic fresh water unit to the 

on-site supply lines.

10. Check all screw connections are tight.

CAUTION

Damaged circulation pump due to dry

running! The circulation pump is running before the 
domestic fresh water unit has been vented.

 

h

Only switch on the circulation pump once the domestic fresh 
water unit has been completely filled and vented. Audible noises 
which occur when the circulation pump is in operation indicate 
air in the system.

3.  Connect the power supply to the domestic fresh water unit 

(see separate pump documentation).

 

9

The domestic fresh water unit automatically switches 
itself on when the power supply is connected.

4.  Program the controller if required 

(

see separate instructions 

for the controller).

5.  Switch the circulation pump on from ‘Manual operation’ 

on the controller menu and allow the water to flow for 
approximately 5 minutes.

6.  Vent the primary circuit again.
7.  Slowly open the shut-off valves (items C and D) on the 

secondary circuit.

8.  Slowly open a point of use (e.g. a tap in the kitchen or 

bathroom) and allow water to run until all the pipes are full 
and all the air has escaped from the system.

8.3  Starting the controller

See separate controller documentation.
