4 Heating System

5.1 General

The domestic hot water service must be in accordance with the
rules in force in the countries of destination.

5.2 Water Pressure

For the minimum and maximum working pressures of the
domestic hot water circuit of the boiler refer to diagram 1.2.

If the cold water supply pressure exceeds the maximum, a
governor must be fitted in the supply to the boiler to reduce the
pressure to within the limits given.

ALTERNATIVE METHODS OF FILLING

5.3 “Hard” Water Areas

In areas where the water is “hard”, more than 200mg/litre, it is
recommended that a proprietary scale reducer is fitted in the
cold water supply to the boiler. Consult the local water company
for additional advice.

A double check valve assembly must be fitted upstream of the
scale reducer. For the relative position of the scale reducer and
pressure reducing valve, if required, refer to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
