8. Water Piping

This appliance is suitable for potable water applications. Do not use this appliance if any part has been underwater. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and replace any part of the control system and gas control which has been under water.

Piping and components connected to the water heater shall be suitable for use with potable water. Toxic chemicals, such as those used for boiler treatment, shall not be introduced into the potable water. A water heater used to supply potable water may not be connected to any heating system or components previously used with a nonpotable water heating appliance. When water is required in one part of the system at a higher temperature than in the rest of the system, means such as a mixing valve shall be installed to temper the water to reduce the scald hazard.

• Flush water through the pipe to clean out metal powder, sand and dirt before connecting it.

• Perform the following insulation measures for prevention of freezing.

• Take appropriate heat insulation measures (e.g., wrapping with heat

insulation materials, using electric heaters) according to the climate of the region to prevent the pipe from freezing.

• Make sure that there are no water leaks from the cold and hot water supply pipes, then insulate the pipes completely.

• Be sure to also completely insulate the water supply valve and the cold and hot water connections on the water heater (refer to the figure on the right).

• Do not cover the water drain plug with insulation so that water in the pipe can be drained. (Refer to the figure in the right.)

•

Use a union coupling for connecting the pipes to reduce the force applied to the piping.

• When feed water pressure is too high, insert a depressurizing valve, or take water hammer prevention measure.

• Avoid using joints as much as possible to keep the piping simple.

• Avoid piping in which an air lock can occur.

•

Use approved piping materials.

• If installing the unit on a roof (Above lower-level hot water supply): If the unit is installed on a roof to supply water to the levels below, make sure that the water pressure supplied to the unit does not drop below 199 kPa. It may be necessary to install a pump system to ensure that the water pressure is maintained at this level. Check the pressure before putting the unit into operation. Failure to supply the proper pressure to the unit may result in noisy operation, shorter lifetime of the unit, and may cause the unit to shut down frequently.

Installation Instructions

Supply water piping

• Do not use PVC, iron, or any piping which has been treated with chromates, boiler seal or other chemicals.

•

Pipe sizing from the cold water supply should be sized according to local BY LAWS for water supply.

• If sludge or foreign matter is present in the water supply it is recommended that a separate filter/ strainer be fitted to the cold water supply line.

• A solar transfer valve must be fitted with all solar applications using this appliance. Solar systems fitted without a solar transfer valve will void all Bosch Warranty.

• A GATE VALVE OR BALL VALVE must be used on the cold water inlet to the water heater. THIS REQUIREMENT IS AN AUSTRALIA WIDE REQUIREMENT UNDER THE NATIONAL PLUMBING CODE.

STOP TAPS OR COMBINATION STOP TAPS AND NON-RETURN VALVES ARE NOT TO BE USED.

• In order for the client to use the water heater comfortably, 200 to 1000 kPa of pressure is needed from the water supply. Be sure to check the water pressure. If the water pressure is low, the water heater cannot perform to its full capability, and may become a source of trouble for the client.

Drain processing

• Expansion water may drop from the pressure relief valve and wet the floor.

Hot water piping

• Do not use lead, PVC, iron or any piping which has been treated with chromates, boiler seal or other chemicals.

• Keep the pipe lengths to a minimum, and make sure that the pipework is well insulated as correct performance of the appliance is dependent on properly insulated pipework.

• DO NOT FIT ANY VALVES OR RESTRICTORS TO THE OUTLET OF THE WATER HEATER.

• DO NOT FIT ANY OBSTRUCTION TO THE PRESSURE RELIEF LOCATED ON THE HOT WATER OUTLET CONNECTION.

• Use mixing valves with low water resistance. Use shower heads with low pressure loss.

• If necessary, use a pump or other means to ensure that the supply water pressure to the inlet of the heater does not fall below 199kPa when the maximum amount of water is being demanded. Also install a pressure meter on the inlet. If this is not done, local boiling will occur inside the water heater causing abnormal sounds and decreasing the durability of the heat exchanger.

After purging the air from the system using the hot water supply taps, remove the water inlet strainer located on the cold water supply inlet connection. Remove any debris from the filter and replace. When replacing the filter, do not over-tighten the “O” ring seal.

It is recommended that for sanitary fixtures use primarily for the purpose of personal hygiene, that a temperature control device be fitted (such as a tempering valve) as per AS3498.

No pressure reduction valve is required unless the water pressure exceeds 1000 kPa.

Installation Instructions

9. Condensate Piping

PLEASE FOLLOW LOCAL CODES ABOUT CONDENSATE PIPING.

• This water heater is a high efficiency, fully condensing appliance which produces condensate during operation. Therefore, it is necessary to install condensate piping. The water heater incorporates a collection, neutralization, and removal system which must be properly drained in order to ensure proper operation of this appliance.

• The water heater is supplied with a pre-installed condensate neutralization system. No additional neutralizer is required unless local code dictates otherwise.

• In order to drain the condensate, a 15mm (1/2" BSP) male thread fitting is provided at the base of the water heater.

DO NOT FIT ANY VALVES OR REDUCE THE SIZE OF THIS FITTING OR THE CONDENSATE PIPING TO LESS THAN 15mm (1/2" BSP).

• Use plastic pipe, such as PVC, for the drain line. Do not use steel, black iron, or any other material which can corrode when placed into contact with water.

• Keep the length of the drain pipe as short as possible.

• Horizontal runs must be sloped 1/50 downwards the drain.

• The end of the drain pipe must not be submerged in water or blocked in any way.

• Be sure to check that condensate is freely flowing from the drain piping after the system has been

installed. Condensate will begin flowing out of the water heater within 15 minutes after operation has started.

• Take measures to prevent the condensate drain lines from freezing (insulation, heat tape, electric heaters, etc.).
