Filling the cylinder unit (Primary circuit)
Draining the cylinder unit
WARNING: DRAINED WATER MAY BE VERY HOT
1. Before attempting to drain the cylinder isolate from the electrical supply to prevent the immersion and booster heaters burning out.
2. Isolate cold water feed to tank.
3. Attach a hose to the tank drain cock (No. 17 on Figure 4-1 to 4-5). The hose should be able to withstand heat as the emptied water could be very hot. The hose
should drain to a place lower than the tank bottom to encourage siphoning.
Open a hot water tap to start draining without a vacuum.
4. When the tank is drained close drain cock and hot tap.
5. Attach hose to booster heater drain cock and water circuit drain cock (No.13 and No. 16 on Figure 4-1 to 4-5). The hose should be able to withstand heat as the
emptied water could be very hot. The hose should drain to a place lower than the booster heater drain cock to encourage siphoning. Open the pump valves and
the strainer valves.
6. Water remains in the strainer still after the cylinder unit was drained.
Drain the strainer by removing the strainer cover.
Initial fill procedure:
1. Ensure all pipe joints and fittings are tight and secure.
. Open the most distant DHW tap/outlet.
3. Slowly/gradually open the mains water supply to begin filling unit and DHW pipework.
4. Allow most distant tap to run free and release/purge residual air from installation.
5. Close tap/outlet to retain fully charged system.
Initial flush procedure:
1. Energise system to heat-up cylinder contents to a temperature of approx. 30 – 40°C.
2. Flush/drain the water contents to remove any residue/impurities resulting from the installation works. Use the cylinder drain cock to safely discharge the warmed
water to drain via a suitable hose.
3. On completion, close drain cock, re-fill system and resume system commissioning.
Filling the cylinder unit (Potable/DHW circuit)
Filling
1. Check all connections including factory fitted ones are tight.
2. Insulate pipework between cylinder unit and outdoor unit.
3. Thoroughly clean and flush, system of all debris. (see section 4.2 for instruction.)
4. Fill cylinder unit with potable water. Fill primary heating circuit with water and suitable anti-freeze and inhibitor as necessary.
Always use a filling loop with double
check valve when filling the primary circuit to avoid back flow contamination of water supply.
Anti-freeze should always be used for packaged model systems (see section 4.2 for instruction). It is the responsibility of the installer to decide if anti-freeze
solution should be used in split model systems depending on each site’s conditions. Corrosion inhibitor should be used in both split model and packaged
model systems.
When connecting metal pipes of different materials insulate the joints to prevent a corrosive reaction taking place which will damage the pipework.

5. Check for leakages. If leakage is found, retighten the screws onto the connections.
6. Pressurise system to 1 bar.
7. Release all trapped air using air vents during and following heating period.
8. Top up with water as necessary. (If pressure is below 1 bar)
