Worked example
The example below is for a G1/2 temperature relief valve
with a discharge pipe (D2) having 4 No. 22 mm elbows
and length of 7 m from the tundish to the point of dis-
charge.
From Table 5.1:
Maximum resistance allowed for a straight length of
22 mm copper discharge pipe (D2) from a G1/2 tempera-
ture relief valve is: 9.0 m.
Subtract the resistance for 4 No. 22 mm elbows at 0.8 m
each = 3.2 m
Therefore the maximum permitted length equates to:
5.8 m, which is less than the actual length of 7 m there-
fore calcu late the next largest size.
Maximum resistance allowed for a straight length of
28 mm pipe (D2) from a G1/2 temperature relief valve is:
18 m.
Subtract the resistance of 4 No. 28 mm elbows at 1.0 m
each = 4.0 m.
Therefore the maximum permitted length equates to:
14 m.
As the actual length is 7 m, a 28 mm (D2) copper pipe
will be satisfactory.
A suitable place for the end of the discharge pipe is, for
example, beneath a fixed grille above the odour seal in a
gully with a siphon. Low discharge pipes, for example up
to 100 mm above external surfaces such as car and
other parking spaces, grasslands, etc. can be used pro-
vided that they are secured by a wire fence or some-
thing similar to prevent children from coming into con-
tact with the waste water and provided that the system
is not visible. You must not install any valves or stop
cocks in the discharge pipe.

Make sure that the discharge pipe from the tundish to
the drain has a constant downward incline of at least
1:200.
The discharge pipe from the pressure relief valve of the
Vaillant gas-fired wall-hung boiler can be connected to
the horizontal discharge pipe of the cylinder behind the
tundish using a T-piece.

Fig. 5.6 High drain connection
The method illustrated in fig. 5.6 is allowed provided
that no-one inside or outside the building is endangered
by the discharge point.
Examples of points to consider when deciding whether
a location is suitable for the high drain:
– The possibility (taking into account the effect of the
wind) that a person might be located in the area where
the water escapes, and, if this is the case, whether the
water is sufficiently cooled by that point to pose no dan-
ger. Thermal conductivity of the structure's surface, cli-
matic conditions and location and orientation of the
discharge pipe may or may not have an effect on redu-
cing the temperature of the discharge water.
– The position of windows and other openings.
– The probability of prams being parked under the drain.
– The resistance of the surface to hot water.
– The possibility of ice forming if the water is
discharged onto paths.
