Cascade System
When installing a cascade system, carefully consider the design of
the system and the features of the installation location. Follow all
local codes and regulations, as well as all guidelines for installing
the water heater. The following sections describe additional
considerations that are specific to installing a cascade system. Read
the following sections carefully before designing or installing the
system.
Piping sizes
When plumbing a cascade system, consider the following pipe
diameters and flow rates (note that flow rates above 6.6 ft/s may
cause pipe erosion). These specifications may vary depending on
installation conditions.
