General Plumbing
- The existing domestic plumbing should
have a single outlet taken before the inlet
to TankBoost to allow for a supply of fresh
drinking water (typically the kitchen sink).
- To protect the unit from bacterial growth
and frost, ensure the unit is located and
sufficiently insulated in an area where the
stored water temperature remains between
4°C-20°C.
- Installation must comply with the relevant
water regulations or local byelaws.
- In line with good plumbing practice and water
regulations, ensure that a double check valve
has been fitted directly after the mains stop
tap to the house.
- Earth continuity must be maintained on the
pipework.
- Good plumbing practice is to fit full bore
isolating valves into the inlet and outlet pipe
work of TankBoost to facilitate service and
removal of the unit. Consult the installation
diagram for more information.
- Never fit to hot water pipework
- Never use jointing compounds, Boss White,
hemp, or steel wool.
- Solder fluxes must not come into contact with
any part of the unit.
- All associated pipework must be thoroughly
flushed before making final connections to
the TankBoost unit.
- 28mm pipework is recommended from the
outlet of the unit to allow maximum flow rate.
Smaller diameter pipes may result in reduced
flow rates.
- All pipework to and from the TankBoost unit
should be supported with pipe clips.
- If the supply is known to be lime/calcium
(hard) water, fit extra filtration before the
unit. Always consult filter manufacturer’s
literature for correct installation.
- It is advisable to fit a filter before the inlet to
the unit.
- A tundish can be added to the overflow
pipework to allow any overflow to be visible.
- Tank may flex slightly when fully filled and is
built to accommodate this.
- If necessary an additional drain-off point
can be added to the tank at the tank link
connector position.
Installation Notes
Location
- The floor/mounting surface (supporting
TankBoost) must be flat and level, fully
supporting the unit. It must be able to
withstand the maximum full weight of the
TankBoost unit (please refer to the technical
specification for the weights of each unit).
Additional supports should be added to the
support surface if required.
- Once a suitable location has been identified,
the unit should be removed from the
packaging and inspected for any damage
- Carefully move the unit into position.
- The connection to the TankBoost inlet should
be made after the supply to a drinking water
taps, such as a kitchen tap.
- Ensure that the stored volume of water
remains above 4°C and below 20°C to avoid
bacterial growth and to protect the unit
from frost.
Note: Insulation may need to be applied to the
outside of the tank to achieve this.
- To ensure the unit cannot tip, the unit should
be fixed to a suitable supporting wall.
