5.9 Water Pressure

The minimum working pressure to obtain the maximum

domestic flow is:-
24cxi 1.0bar
30cxi 1.0bar
The maximum working pressure of the domestic hot water

circuit is 10 bar. If the cold water supply pressure exceeds

this, then a pressure-reducing valve must be fitted in the

supply to the boiler.

5.10 ‘Hard’ Water Areas

The temperatures within the heat exchanger are limited by

the boiler control system to minimise scale formation within

the hot water pipework. However, in areas where the water is

‘hard’ (i.e. more than 200mg/litre), it is recommended that the

hot water setting is reduced and that a scale reducer is fitted,

refer to the manufacturer’s instructions or consult the local

water company for additional advice.

5.11 Domestic Water Flow Rate

The domestic hot water flow has a restrictor, factory fitted,

which reduces the flow to a maximum of, 8.0 l/min for 24cx

and 12.0 l/min for 30cx.
