domestic hot water cylinders are unvented,
indirectly heated domestic hot water cylinders designed for use
with gas-fired boilers as per GB standards for hot water supply
systems. The cylinders work with the pressure of the water supply
line and do not need a cold water tank for their supply.
They are used only to supply potable water heated up to 80°C
in solar systems with a collector array. They may only be used
for this purpose. The cylinders can be used in combination
with a downstream gas-fired boiler for hot water generation in
accordance with GB standards.
Any other use or extended use is considered to be improper.
Improper use of any kind is prohibited.
The manufacturer/supplier is not liable for any damage resulting
from improper use. The user alone bears the risk. Intended use
also includes observing the operating and installation manuals
and all other applicable documents, as well as complying with the
inspection and maintenance conditions.
At the end of this manual there is a commissioning report which
you must fill in and hand over to the operator. All installers
should have a current ID card and registration number. The
cylinder must be installed by a competent person approved at
the time by the Health and safety Executive to the prevailing
standards, installation book and building regulations at the time
of installation.
