COMMERCIAL INSTALLATION GUIDE
2n: Caution Regarding Drilling the Outer Casing
This is extremely important and MUST be adhered to without exception!
3a: Filling the Water Heater
Open all hot water taps. Open isolating valve at the cold-water inlet and allow the water heater to fill until water flows
through the system. Close each hot water tap after the air is expelled from its line.
3b: Water Quality
Your Quantum water heater has been manufactured to suit the water conditions of most Australian and New Zealand
metropolitan supplies. Harsh water supplies can have a detrimental effect on the water heater and its life expectancy.
If you are unsure about your water quality you can obtain information from your local water supply authority.
By using the correct anode, this water heater can be used in areas where the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) content of
the water supply is up to 2500 mg/L.
In areas where the TDS exceeds 750mg/L it is possible that the magnesium alloy anode (supplied in the heater) may
become over reactive. To alleviate this, the magnesium alloy anode should be checked more regularly, and replaced if
necessary. More information is given in the Commercial Warranty Manual Section on Pages 36-37.
3c: Caution When Left Operating but Unused
If the water heater is left in an operating condition, but unused for two weeks or more, hydrogen gas (highly
flammable) may accumulate on top of the water cylinder. To dissipate this gas safely, it is recommended that:
