2.8 Domestic Hot Water System - Unvented

Where a storage system will not have a vent to atmosphere the
installation must comply with the Building Regulations and local
Water Company bylaws, see also the current issue of BS5546
and BS6700.

If fitting to an existing system the local authority should be
informed.

2.9 Sealed Water Systems

The installation must comply with the appropriate requirements
of the current issue of BS4814, BS5449, BS6759, BS6798 and
BS7074 Part 1 and 2.

See diagram 2.4 for a suggested layout.

incorporating seating of a resilient material, a test device and a
