5.4.4 Tips for optimised user behaviour
Hot water needs and user behaviour are highly individual. The higher the desired storage tank temperature and the longer the
periods for non-solar charging heating have been adjusted, the more the storage potential for solar heat generation will be limited.
Conscious user behaviour that is adapted to the special strengths of the Sanicube Solaris, will minimise the energy consumption
of non-solar charging operations.
• Use modern and convenient shower heads with flow rates of 5–7 l/min.
Î The lower flow rate (hot water consumption per minute) results in a reduced need for supplementary heating and
therefore, a larger amount of hot water at a higher temperature.
• Reduce the consumption times.
Î Lower energy consumption.
• Start filling the bathtub only with hot water.
Î After the 25 l of hot water stored in the Sanicube Solaris have been drawn, the hot water discharge temperature drops
slightly and the water is mixed in the bathtub. In this way, the storage capacity is used in an optimal manner with
a minimum charging temperature; an adequate amount of hot water is available.
5.4.5 Domestic water hygiene
If no hot water is drawn for several days and if the storage tank temperature is not maintained at a minimum of 60°C by the
Solaris system, a one-time temperature increase to above 60°C or draining the stored hot water (25 l) is recommended for
hygienic reasons (Legionella protection).
