PURGING AIR FROM THE SYSTEM
The water heater system must be purged of air prior to operation, using the air
bleed valve supplied on the heat pump module. Failure to bleed the air out of
the pipe work within the heat pump module will result in non-operation of the
circulator and failure of the heat pump to operate due to overheating.
CONDENSATE DRAIN
A drain line must be fitted to the condensate drain to carry the discharge clear
of the water heater. The drain line can be extended using 13 mm rigid hose or
conduit. The pipe work from condensate drain should be as short as possible,
and fall all the way from the water heater with no restrictions. It should have no
more than three right angle bends in it. The outlet of the drain line must be in
such a position that flow out of the pipe can be easily seen - but arranged so
water discharge will not cause damage or nuisance.
The condensate drain line must not be connected to the temperature
pressure relief valve drain line but may discharge at the same point.

ENVIRONMENT
