6.0 MAINTENANCE

6.1 MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS

Unvented hot water systems have a continuing main-

tenance requirement in order to ensure safe working 

and  optimum  performance.  It  is  essential  that  the 

Relief Valve(s) are periodically inspected and manu-

ally opened to ensure no blockage has occurred in 

the valves or discharge pipework. Similarly cleaning 

of the strainer element and replacement of the air in 

the Expansion Vessel will help to prevent possible 

operational faults.

The maintenance checks described below should be 

performed by a competent installer on a regular basis, 

e.g. annually to coincide with the air to water heat 

pump maintenance.

6.2 SAFETY VALVE OPERATION

Manually  operate  the Temperature/Pressure  Relief 

Valve for a few seconds. Check water is discharged 

and  that  it  flows  freely  through  the  tundish  and 

discharge pipework. Check valve reseats correctly 

when released. 

NOTE: Water discharged may be 

very hot!

Repeat the above procedure for the Expansion Valve.

6.3 STRAINER

Turn off the cold water supply, air to water heat pump 

system and cylinder heater. The lowest hot water tap 

should then be opened to de-pressurise the system. 

Remove the Pressure Reducing Valve Cartridge by 

unscrewing  from  the  housing.  Pull  the    Reducing 

Valve cartridge from the housing to access the strainer 

mesh. Wash any particulate matter from the strainer 

under clean water. Re-assemble ensuring the seal is 

correctly fitted, DO NOT use any other type of seal

-

ant. Ensure the Pressure Reducing Valve Cartridge is 

fully tightened.

6.4 DESCALING CYLINDER HEATER

Before removing the cylinder heater the unit must be 

drained. 

Ensure the water and electrical supply and 

air to water heat pump are OFF before draining

Attach a hose pipe to the drain cock having sufficient 

length to take water to a suitable discharge point below 

the level of the  unit. Open a hot tap close to the unit 

and open drain cock to drain unit.

ISOLATE FROM MAINS BEFORE REMOVING 

TERMINAL COVER.

Open the terminal cover. Disconnect the link wires 

connecting the thermal cut-out to the cylinder heater. 

Carefully remove the thermal sensor from its pocket 

on  the  cylinder  heater  by  pulling  outwards.  Care-

fully remove the thermal cut-out sensing bulb from 

its pocket by pulling outwards. Remove the element 

tail insulating shroud by pulling it outwards from the 

element.

Unscrew the cylinder heater backnut. A key spanner 

is provided with the unit for easy removal/tightening 

of the backnut.

Remove the cylinder heater from the unit.

NOTE:

 Over time the cylinder heater gasket may 

become  stuck  to  the  mating  surface,  to  break  the 

seal insert a round bladed screwdriver into one of 

the pockets and gently lever up and down. Carefully 

remove any scale from the surface of the element. 

DO 

NOT 

use a sharp implement as damage to the element 

surface could be caused. Ensure sealing surfaces are 

clean and seals are undamaged. If in doubt fit a new 

gasket.

Replace the cylinder heater ensuring the element tails 

are in the vertical plane (see Fig. 6). Secure in place 

by re-fitting cylinder heater backnut and tightening. 

Replace the element tail insulating shroud by carefully 

pushing it over the element tails until it sits flush with 

the face of the element mounting plate. Replace the 

thermal cut-out into the left hand pocket of the cylinder 

heater. Ensure it is fully inserted and that the capillary 

tube is not kinked. Ensure the capillary tube is routed 

such that it does not come into contact with the ele-

ment tails. Replace the thermal sensor  in the left hand 

pocket of the cylinder heater. Ensure it is fully inserted 

behind the thermal cut-out, and the securing grommet 

is pushed into the open end of the pocket.
