INSTALLATION
THIS STORAGE TANK IS NOT SUITABLE FOR POOL HEATING
INSTALLATION STANDARDS
The storage tank must be installed:

by a qualified person, and

in accordance with the installation instructions, and

in compliance with Standard AS/NZS 3500.4 and all local codes and regulatory authority requirements.
In New Zealand the installation must also conform to the New Zealand Building Code.
All packaging materials must be removed from the storage tank prior to its installation. This includes the
removal of the cardboard base of the carton from the underside of the storage tank.
STORAGE TANK APPLICATION
This storage tank is designed for the purpose of storing water treated with a corrosion inhibitor and is not
designed for use with potable water. Its use in an application other than this may shorten its life.
If this storage tank is to be used where an uninterrupted hot water supply is necessary for the application or
business, then there should be redundancy within the hot water system design. This should ensure the
continuity of hot water supply in the event that this storage tank was to become inoperable for any reason.
We recommend you provide advice to the system owner about their needs and building backup redundancy
into the hot water supply system.
Note: AS 3498 requires that a water heater provides the means to inhibit the growth of Legionella bacteria in
potable water.
This storage tank is not designed to contain potable water. The requirement to provide the means to inhibit
the growth of Legionella bacteria must be fulfilled by the secondary heating source. Refer to installation
instructions of the secondary heating source.
STORAGE TANK LOCATION
This storage tank is suitable for either outdoor or indoor installation, depending on the selected insulation.
Aluminium clad insulation is suitable for indoor or outdoor installation. PVC outer cover is suitable for indoor
installation only (not available in Australia or New Zealand).
Whether located outdoor or indoor, the storage tank should be installed either close to the most frequently
used outlets or with a circulated flow and return system, and its position chosen with safety and service in
mind.
Clearance must be allowed for servicing of the storage tank. The
storage tank must be accessible without the use of a ladder or scaffold.
Make sure the temperature pressure relief valve lever is accessible and
the thermostat (Tankstat) if fitted can be removed for service.
You must be able to read the information on the rating plate.
Remember you may have to take the entire storage tank out later for
servicing.
The storage tank is to be installed at ground or floor level and must
stand vertically upright on a stable base as acceptable to local
authorities. The support Legs of the storage tank are coated with a
corrosion resistant material, however it is recommended a moisture
barrier be placed between the support legs and the supporting surface.
It is not necessary to allow for free air circulation under the base of the
storage tank.
