Hottap : General information
HOTTAP is activated by water pressure
• Without sucient water pressure, nothing will happen
• Running on mains water is no problem
• House pumps are generally powerful enough
• Gravity feeds require a drop height of at least 15m
• 12V pumps must have a ow rate of 6-12L/min and a cut-o of
40-60 PSI
• 12V pumps powered by weak batteries have lower output than stated
• 12V pumps with partially blocked suction lters have lower output
than stated
• Restricting water pressure (kinked hoses or debris In lters) impacts
the HOTTAP
HOTTAP shows quality of ame in viewnder
• Look through slits above the control dials to see the burners
• If you see no ame, HOTTAP has not ignited
• A still blue ame with yellow tips is perfect
• A ame that moves side to side or stretches up means wind issues
• A yellow ame indicates an issue with the gas mixture
HOTTAP is limited by the laws of physics
(and the government regulatory authority)
• HOTTAP automatically shuts o when outlet water hits +50ºC
• In summer, lower gas ow and increase water ow to avoid safety
shut-o
• In winter, run at high gas ow and low water ow for maximum
heating
• The temperature of incoming water can be increased by a maximum
40ºC (e.g. if incoming water is +5ºC, HOTTAP can put out +45ºC water)
• If you have a 12V pump (included in some kits), you can gradually
increase the temperature by recirculating the water; simply direct the
heated water back into the container you are drawing from until it has
reached desired temperature
