This User Manual has been prepared for owners and users
of the hot water system. Please keep it in a safe place for
future reference.
warning
Installation must be performed by a qualified installer (for
example, a licensed plumber or gas fitter).
caution
• Contact an authorised service technician for repair or
maintenance of this hot water system.
• If any power cord or cable is damaged and needs to
be replaced, replacement work must be performed by
authorised personnel only.
• Installation work must be performed in accordance
with national standards by authorised personnel only.
Wrong connection can cause over heating or fire.
• This hot water system should be installed in accordance
with AS/NZS 3000 and your electricity suppliers rules.
For the installer
The installation must be completed in accordance with the
information supplied in the Installation Manual that comes
with your solar hot water system.
All other relevant National, State or Local regulations must
also be conformed with and these include (but are not
limited to):
• Australian Standard AS3500.1 – Water Supply
• Australian Standard AS3500.4 – Hot Water Supply
• Australian Standard AS3000 – Electrical Installation
• Australian Gas Association Code AS5601 –
Gas Appliance Installation
• Local Water, Gas & Electrical Authority Regulations
Municipal Building Codes
• The solar hot and solar cold pipes between the hot water
storage tank and solar collectors MUST BE copper and
fully insulated with closed cell polymer insulation or
similar (minimum thickness of 20mm). Thicker insulation
may be required to comply with the requirements of
AS/NZS 3500.4.
• The insulation must be weatherproof and UV resistant if
exposed to sunlight. All compression fittings must use
brass or copper olives.
• Plastic pipe MUST NOT be used, as it will not withstand
the temperature and pressure of the water generated
by the solar collectors under stagnation conditions.
The solar collector can generate extremely high water
temperatures up to 272°C. Plastic pipe can not withstand
these temperatures and MUST NOT be used. Failure of
plastic pipe can lead to the release of high temperature
water and cause severe water damage and flooding.
• The minimum supply water pressure for correct operation
is 150kPa. If the supply water pressure could exceed
600kPa, a 600kPa pressure limiting valve must be installed.
• If the solar hot water system is electric boosted, the
heating element is designed to be connected to extended
off peak and not standard off peak (also called off peak 1).
