WATER SUPPLIES
This water heater must be installed in accordance with this advice to be covered by the Solahart warranty.
This water heater is manufactured to suit the water conditions of most public reticulated water supplies. However, there are
some known water chemistries which can have detrimental effects on the water heater and its operation and / or life
expectancy. If you are unsure of your water chemistry, you may be able to obtain information from your local water supply
authority. This water heater should only be connected to a water supply which complies with these guidelines for the
Solahart warranty to apply.
Change of Water Supply
The changing or alternating from one water supply to another can have a detrimental effect on the operation and / or life
expectation of a water heater cylinder, a temperature pressure relief valve, a heating unit and a solar collector in an open
circuit solar water heater system.
Where there is a changeover from one water supply to another, e.g., a rainwater tank supply, bore water supply, desalinated
water supply, public reticulated water supply or water brought in from another supply, then water chemistry information
should be sought from the supplier or it should be tested to ensure the water supply meets the requirements given in these
guidelines for the Solahart warranty to apply.
Anode
The vitreous enamel lined cylinder of the water heater is only covered by the Solahart warranty when the total dissolved
solids (TDS) content in the water is less than 2500 mg/L and when the correct colour coded anode is used. If an incorrect
colour coded anode is used in the water heater, any resultant faults will not be covered by the Solahart warranty. In
addition, the use of an incorrect colour coded anode may shorten the life of the water heater cylinder.
The correct colour coded anode must be selected and fitted to the water heater in accordance with the following advice and
the
Anode Selection chart on page 16 for the Solahart warranty to apply to the water heater cylinder.
Total Dissolved Solids Anode colour code
0 – 400 mg/L Black
400 – 600 mg/L Black or Blue
600 – 2500 mg/L Blue
2500 mg/L + Blue (no cylinder warranty)
The changing of an anode must be carried out by a qualified person.
Note: Some water analysis reports may state the conductivity of the water rather than the level of total dissolved solids.
Conductivity, measured in microsiemens per centimetre ( µ S / cm), is directly proportional to the TDS content of the water.
TDS, in mg / L, is approximately 70% of the conductivity in µ S / cm.
warranty applies to a vitreous enamel lined
water heater cylinder if the correct coloured anode
is used for the TDS / conductivity level of the water
