Congratulations
Congratulations for choosing a Bosch HydroPower water heater. This appliance should give many years of trouble free use, when installed to the specifications contained in this document.
The Bosch Story
Bosch Thermotechnology has been delivering hot water to Australia and New Zealand families for nearly 50 years, and forms part of the worldwide Thermotechnology division of Robert Bosch. With global sales of 1.4 million water heaters every
year, Bosch provide hot water solutions for every water heating need.
Bosch pioneered continuous flow water heating in the late 1800’s, and this tradition of innovation and invention still drives our company today.
Extensive research and development ensures that Bosch remains at the forefront of water heating technology. With an extensive product range, Bosch strives to deliver products designed to fit the lifestyle of today’s modern families.
Product Overview
HydroPower Ignition is exclusive to Bosch.
HydroPower uses the energy created by water flow to ignite the burner and begin the heating process. The unit only starts when a hot water tap is opened. Once hot water is no longer needed, the unit turns itself off.
1.Water enters the Hydro Dynamic Generator
2.The turbine spins with water flow
3.A spark is generated by the turbine
4.The spark ignites the main burner
5.The water continues on to the heat exchanger and is heated
External HydroPower
External HydroPower models are perfect for a constant, reliable supply of hot water. The HydroPower ignition provides endless hot water at the flick of a tap, without the need of power point.
Versatile
∙LPG models are particularly popular in country areas, where reticulated gas is not available and there is no external power point.
∙They are able to operate in relatively low water pressure areas and in low temperature regions of Australia and New Zealand using Bosch accessories.
Economical
∙Only heating water when required by the user, the Bosch range is extremely economical to run.
Internal HydroPower
Limited space need not mean limited hot water. The Bosch range of internal hot water heaters are created specifically to go places where storage units will not, and will provide endless hot water.
Versatile
∙Operable without a power point
∙Compact design
∙Flexible connections
∙Caters for a wide range of applications and needs
Economical
∙Only heating water when required by the user, the Bosch range is extremely economical to run.
