Relief Valve:
The Pressure & Temperature Relief (PTR) Valve
is supplied either inside the electrical cover of
the water heater or in a bag attached to the
water heater. Instructions on how to remove
the electrical cover can be found on page 7.
Discard the packaging containing the PTR Valve
and brass plugs.
The PTR Valve rating depends on the size of the
water heater. See Specifications on page 4 for
details.
The PTR Valve rating is also shown on the
compliance plate. The PTR Valve must be
installed directly into the RP½"(DN15) socket
marked "RELIEF VALVE" at the top of the water
heater. Ensure that a sealing material is applied
to the PTR Valve to prevent water leaks.
The drain line from the PTR Valve must be
made of copper and run in accordance with
the requirements of AS/NZS 3500.4. It must be
installed in a continuously downward direction in
a frost free environment.
The PTR Valve and its drain line must not be
sealed or blocked. Generally a separate drain
line must be run for the valve although it may
be joined with the drain line from the expansion
control valve under certain circumstances.
Tthe PTR valve must be insulated with the PTR
insulation supplied with the heater.
Care must be taken when attaching pipe
saddles to the water heater. Self-drilling screws
no longer than 12 mm are recommended.
It is normal for the valve to leak a small amount
of water during heating cycles.
The PTR Valve is not intended to enable
connection of the water heater to
supplementary energy sources such as solar
panels or slow combustion stoves. Refer to

Plumbing Connections
AS/NZS 3500.4 for guidance on these types
of installations.
Hot Water Connection:
The hot water pipe is to be connected to a
RP¾"(DN20) socket marked "OUTLET" at the
top of the water heater.
On dual handed models, the unused socket
marked "OUTLET" is to be plugged with one of
the brass plugs supplied. Ensure that a sealing
material is applied to the brass plug to prevent
water leaks.
It is recommended that all hot water pipes are
insulated. Hot water pipes installed outdoors
should be insulated with UV stabilised insulation.
Plastic pipes or fittings shall not be used within
1 metre of the outlet although they may be used
downstream of a temperature control valve.
Refer to AS/NZS 3500.4 for further details.
Temperature Protection:
Water heaters can produce very hot water. To
reduce the risk of scald injury, it is mandatory
under the requirements of AS/NZS 3500.4 that
an approved temperature control device is fitted
to the hot water supply to outlets used primarily
for personal hygiene. This device should be
checked at regular intervals to ensure its
operation and settings remain correct.
Water Supply:
This water heater has been manufactured to
suit the water conditions of most Australian and
New Zealand metropolitan supplies.
Please note certain water supplies can have a
detrimental effect on the water heater and its life
expectancy. If you are unsure about the water
supply, you can obtain information from the local
water supply authority.
