circuit to prevent the formation of air pockets.
• Check carefully for leaks in the water circuit, connections and circuit elements.
5.5.9 Water quality
◆ General recommendations for Primary (Space Heating/Cooling) and Sec-
ondary (DHW) circuit.
! CAUTION
• Water quality must be according to EU council directive 98/83 EC.
• Water should be subjected to ltration or to a soening treatment with chemicals before
application as treated water.
• It is also necessary to analyse the quality of water by checking pH, electrical conductivity,
ammonia ion content, sulphur content, and others. If the results of the analysis are not good, the
use of industrial water would be recommended.
• No antifreeze agent shall be added to the water circuit.
• To avoid deposits of scale on the heat exchangers surface it is mandatory to ensure a high water
quality with low levels of CaCO

.
Before water lling, sludge removal (for existing water networks), cleansing and rinsing (for
an existing or new installations water networks) it is important to cleanse all hydraulic pipes
to remove sludge and scale by using a specic designed product for cleaning central heating
systems.
Also, its recommended to use a product inhibitor for protecting central heating systems against
limescale and corrosion, always following manufacturer’s instructions and ensuring that the
product is suitable for the material used in the water network and the YUTAKI unit.
When using chemical treatments and inhibitors always follow manufacturer’s instructions and
ensure that the product is appropriate for the total water system. Using lling water that does
not meet the stated quality requirements can cause a considerably reduce in service life. The
responsibility will be out of Hitachi warranties.
