WATER CONNECTIONS
All pipes, pipe fittings, valves and other components, including soldering materials, must be
suitable for potable water systems.
A manual shut off valve must be installed on the cold water inlet to the water heater
between the main water supply line and the water heater.
Only a gate valve or a ball valve is to be used on the cold water supply.
No stop taps or check valves are to be used as this will void the warranty and damage the
water heater.
Check the cold water pressure and if above 1000 kPa an approved limiting valve must be
fitted.
Before installing the water heater, flush the water line to remove all debris, and after
installation is complete, purge the air from the line. Failure to do so may cause damage to
the heater.
There is a wire mesh filter to discourage debris from entering your heater. Clean filter after
initial installation to ensure no debris from the pipe work has clogged it.
NOTE:
This filter must be cleaned as part of regular maintenance.
