INSTALLATION 

 

Installation Overview 

 

This  solar  water  heater  must  be  installed  by  a  qualified  person  in  accordance  with  the  installation 
instructions.  The  installation  must  comply  with  the  requirements  of  AS/NZS 3500.4,  AS/NZS 3000  and  all 
local codes and regulatory authority requirements. 

 

This solar water heater is comprised of the following components: 

 

 

Solar storage cylinder. 

 

Gas booster. 

 

Solar controller kit. 

 

Solar collector kit. 

 

If the gas booster is mounted on the solar storage cylinder (integrated gas booster), then the solar storage 
cylinder is suitable for outdoor installation only. 

 

The  system  is  suitable  for  installation  with  one,  two  or  three  Aquamax  S  solar  collectors.  The  number  of 
collectors required will depend upon the installations region and collector location (contact Aquamax for more 
information).  For most  installations,  the  number  of solar  collectors  recommended  in  the  Aquamax  literature 
has  been  proven  to  provide  the  required  solar  energy  to  meet  the  average  family  needs.  The  solar  water 
heater is not suitable for installation above 400 metres altitude. 

 

This solar water heater is not suitable for pool heating. 

 

Important Notes

 

 

 

Working  on  roofs  is  and  should  always  be  considered  a  hazardous  activity,  particularly  early  in  the 
morning and late in the evening, when the roof is wet and during and after periods of rain. 

 

All  work must be carried out in  accordance  with Local,  State  and Federal Occupational  Safety, Health 
and  Welfare  Regulations.  Safety  requirements  whilst  manual  lifting,  working  at  heights  and  on  roofs 
must be adhered to. 

 

Installers must be competently trained in: 

 

Height Hazard Assessment. 

 

Working at Height Procedures. 

 

Assessment / Use / Wearing of correct height safety equipment (harnesses etc.). 

 

All  other  relevant  safety  factors  specific  to  the  installation  and  maintenance  work  to  be  compliant 
with suitable Occupational, Health and Safety Regulations / Codes. 

 

All relevant permits shall be obtained from the regulatory authorities before commencing work to install 
the solar water heater. 

 

All work carried out must be performed by appropriately qualified tradespeople or be suitably supervised 
for trades assistant duties. 

 

Every  care  must  be  taken  to protect  and  warn  occupants  of  the  building  and  the  public  from  personal 
injury  which  may  occur  from  falling  tools,  roof  materials,  fittings  or  any  other  hazards  of  a  general 
nature. 

 

Advise the occupants of any inconvenience which may occur due to disconnection of existing water and 
electrical supplies. 

 

The connection, attachment, integration or general association of other equipment or parts which either 
directly  or  indirectly  affect  the  operation  or  performance  of  this  equipment  could  void  the  Aquamax 
warranty. 

 

Freeze Protection

 

 

The solar water heater has a level of freeze protection designed to guard the system against damage from 
freeze  conditions.  Freeze  conditions  occur  below  6°C.  The  full  length  of  the  solar  hot  and  solar  cold  pipes 

MUST BE

 insulated in accordance with these installation instructions (r

efer to “Warning: Important Notes for 

Plumber” on page 25). The solar water heater has NO WARRANTY for freeze damage when installed above 
400 metres  altitude  or  if  the  solar  hot  and  solar  cold  pipes  are  not  insulated  in  accordance  with  the 
installation instructions (refer to 

“Terms of the Aquamax Warranty” on page 37).
