6 Installation of the Water Tank
(1) The water tank can be installed outdoors with the main unit, for example,
installed in the balcony, roof, or ground. It can also be installed inside
the room. Try to install it in an environment where the temperature is
higher than 0°C. The hot water outlet should not be too far away from
the locations for use. Lay out the pipes in a centralized manner, and
take thermal insulation measures on hot water piping to reduce heat
loss.
(2) The water tank must be placed upright with all feet touching the ground.
It must be installed on a solid foundation. During water tank installation,
consider the weight bearing capability of the foundation. Figure 6-1
shows the installation diagram.
