9.2 Booster applications
9.2.1 Solar DHW system with gas tankless water heater booster
The tankless water heater only runs when solar water needs a boost.
The Ariston mini tank provides small amounts of DHW instantly and
increases comfort by buffering DHW temperature. Recommended
appliances: Bosch GWH 715 ES, GWH C 800 ES, GWH C 920 ES/ESC
Thermostatic valve 1 ensures that warm solar water bypasses the
water heater and directs cooler water through the appliance
when reheating is needed.
Thermostatic valve 2 acts as a tempering valve that brings
potentially hot water temperatures down to a level that is safe for
the inhabitants.

System parameters:
Honeywell AM101 Thermostatic Valves required for proper
operation;
Remove check valves from Thermostatic Valve 1 as it is used as a
diverter valve;
Thermostatic Valve 2 is a tempering valve;
Recommended setpoint 120°F for both Valves;
Set tankless water heater temperature to
140° F
Ariston mini tank will provide increased
temperature stability and quicker hot water
delivery. (recommended but not required)
