7.2 Recommendations before installing
7.2.1 Domestichotwatercircuitdesign
Water pressure
The minimum working pressure to obtain the maximum domestic
ow is 1,0 bar.
The maximum working pressure of the domestic hot water circuit
is 10 bar. If the cold water supply pressure exceeds this, then a
pressure-reducing valve must be tted in the supply to the boiler.
‘Hard’ water areas
The temperatures within the heat exchanger are limited by the
boiler control system to minimise scale formation within the hot
water pipework. However, in areas where the water is ‘hard’ (i.e.
more than 200 mg/L of calcium carbonate), it is recommended
that the hot water setting is reduced and that a scale reducer is
tted, refer to the manufacturer’s instructions or consult the local
water company for additional advice.
Domestic water ow rate
The domestic hot water ow has a restrictor, factory tted, which
reduces the ow to a maximum of:
- 24 : 8/min,
- 28 : 10/min,
Central Heating water ow rate
If it is necessary to alter the ow rate, the system can be tted
with a lockable balancing valve in the main ow or return pipes.
