Caution.
Risk of material damage if the heating
water is treated with unsuitable frost or
corrosion protection agents!
Frost and corrosion protection agents may
cause changes in the seals, noises during
heating and may lead to further damage.
> Do not use any unsuitable frost or corro-
sion protection agents.
Mixing additives with the heating water may result in mate-
rial damage. However, no incompatibility with Vaillant boil-
ers has been detected with proper use of the following
products over a long period.
> When using additives, follow the manufacturer's instruc-
tions without exception.
Vaillant accepts no liability for the compatibility of any addi-
tive or its effectiveness in the rest of the heating installa-
tion.

b
Caution.
Heating water that is extremely calcifer-
ous or corrosive or contaminated by
chemicals may cause damage to the
boiler.
Unsuitable heating water damages the
seals and diaphragms, blocks components
in the boiler and heating installation
through which the water flows, and causes
noise.
The heating water must fulfil the limit val-
ues based on the system volume in accord-
ance with fig.2.1 and, if required, must be
treated.
In addition, the national regulations with
regard to water treatment shall apply.
To treat the water, we recommend treat-
ment plants that work according to the
reverse osmosis process.
> Condition the water for the initial filling
as well as the water for any subsequent
fillings.
