If unvented hot water storage systems are installed where discharges from safety
devices may not be apparent i.e. in dwellings occupied by the blind, infirm or disabled
people, consideration should be given to the installation of an electronically operated
device to warn when discharge takes place. Note: The discharge will consist of
scalding water and steam. Asphalt, roofing felt and non-metallic rainwater goods may

From Table 2
From Table 2
Maximum resistance allowed for a straight length of 22 mm copper discharge pipe (D2) from G 1/2" T & P valve is 9 m.
Subtract the resistance for 4 no. 22 mm elbows at 0.8 m each = 3.2 m. Therefore the maximum permitted length equates

Maximum resistance allowed for a straight length of 28 mm pipe (D2) from G 1/2" T & P valve equates to: 18 m.
Therefore the maximum permitted length equates to: 5.8 m.

As the actual length is 7 m, a 28 mm (D2) copper pipe will be satisfactory.

& P valve equates to: 18 m.
Draining the appliance
Subtract the resistance for 4 no. 28 mm elbow at 1.0 m each = 4 m.
The appliance must be drained if left inactive in a room subject to frost and/or in the event of prolonged inactivity.
Therefore the maximum permitted length equates to: 14 m
As the actual length is 7 m, a 28 mm (D2) copper pipe will be satisfactory.
Typical drain arrangement and system designs will vary:
1.
Turn power off to ensure appliance is not operated when empty.
2.
Turn off cold supply to appliance.
3.
Shut off hot water feed from appliance.

4.
Connect hose to drain cock and place other end in sink, basin etc.
5.
Open drain cock and open TPR valve to vent cylinder.
