TO TURN OFF THE WATER HEATER
If you plan to be away from home for a few nights, we suggest you leave the water heater switched on.
If it is necessary to turn off the water heater:
Switch off the electrical supply to the solar control unit at the power outlet (refer to the notes below).
Close the cold water isolation valve at the inlet to the water heater.
Refer to the
Owner’s Guide and Installation Instructions supplied with the in-series water heater for the
procedure to turn off the in-series water heater.
Notes:
The freeze protection system will be rendered inoperable if electrical power is not available at the solar
control unit. Damage caused by freezing due to no power at the solar control unit is not covered by the
Rheem warranty. Refer to
on page 58.
If there is a risk of freezing, the electrical supply to the solar control unit should not be switched off unless
the solar collector(s) and solar hot and solar cold pipes are drained, otherwise damage could result (refer
to
on page 8).
TO TURN ON THE WATER HEATER
Open the cold water isolation valve fully at the inlet to the water heater.
If the solar collector(s) and solar hot and solar cold pipes have been drained, it will be necessary to have
a plumber purge the collector circuit of air.
If the electrical supply to the water heater has been switched off:
Switch on the electrical supply to the solar control unit at the power outlet.
The power outlet must be switched on for the solar control unit to operate and solar gain to be achieved
and for the anti-freeze heating unit to operate and offer additional freeze protection.
Refer to the
Owner’s Guide and Installation Instructions supplied with the in-series water heater for the
procedure to turn on the in-series water heater.
GOING ON HOLIDAYS
It is not necessary to switch off the electrical supply at the power outlet to the solar control unit. Refer to
on page 10. Also if the system is not used for a period in excess of four (4) weeks
it is recommended the solar collector(s) be covered.
HOW DO I KNOW IF THE WATER HEATER IS INSTALLED CORRECTLY?
Installation requirements are
32. The water heater must be installed:
by a qualified person, and
in accordance with the installation instructions, and
in compliance with Standards AS/NZS 3500.4 or AS/NZS 3500.5:2012 Section 3 (for a Class 1a or
Class 10 building) as applicable under the Plumbing Code of Australia, AS/NZS 3000, and either AS 5601
or AS/NZS 5601.1 as applicable under local regulations, and all local codes and regulatory authority
requirements.
Warning:
Temperature controllers or an EZiSET kit
must not
be fitted to the in-series water heater as part
of a solar water heater system because water at a temperature much higher than the controller or EZiSET
setting can be delivered.
