600kpa maximum water pressure to be supplied to unit

1/2" water piping (Standard Geyser).
-
It is recommended that a non-Return valve be installed on the hot water outlet of the unit.

A water shut-off valve must be installed on the cold water inlet, recommended use of conex fittings onto unit.
-
For solar-boost systems, water of not more than 75 degrees C should enter the unit, no controllers to be connected (Advance geyser).

All filters, including tap filters should be cleaned regularly for optimal performance. An in-line strainer should be fitted
to the cold water supply pipe.​
-
Cold water supply should be as direct from source as possible and balanced pressure where able. This is to eliminate supply pressure reduction on the units when using other non-hot water outlets.
-
Location for the gas unit must be installed centrally, or as close as possible to the point of maximum hot water demand
