INSTALLATION
ACV water kit
ACV can supply an optional
pre-assembled water kit.
This kit comprises:
• A pump;
• A 3-way manual valve. This
valve can be power-operated if
required;
• Connection pipes that can be
used to connect a second
heating circuit;
• Two isolating valves;
• Connectors for the right- or
efthand mounting of the
expansion vessel, the safety
valve with pressure gauge and
the fill valve.
The expansion vessel is not
included.
Typical single-circuit connection
Drain
The drain cock and safety valve must be connected to the building
drain.

HOT WATER CONNECTION
Pressure reducing valve
If the mains water pressure exceeds 6 bar, a pressure reducing
valve calibrated to 4.5 bar must be installed.
Safety group
The safety group of the water tank must be approved by ACV and
calibrated to 7 bar; the group’s valve discharge must be connected
to the drain.
Hot water expansion vessel
Installing a hot water expansion vessel will prevent any risk of
excess pressure due to water hammer or pressure fluctuations.
Hot water circulation
If the water tank is a long way from the point of use,
installing a closed recirculation circuit can ensure a faster hot water
drawoff at any time.

IMPORTANT
As a safety measure, we strongly advise the
installation of a thermostatic mixer to prevent
any risk of burning to persons.
