INSTALLATION
Water Supply
Bleed Control
Mains connection is made to the
float valve fitted in the reservoir.
The float valve must be set to
maintain the reservoir water level
about 10 mm below the overflow
level. (Fig. 5). The mains water
supply should be fitted with a ball
valve and connection to the unit
from the stopcock be made with
the appropriate copper pipe and
fittings.
NOTE:
Flush the mains supply before
connection to the unit to remove
any foreign matter which may foul
the valve seat. Remember to use
a Pipe Cutter to cut copper pipe.
To reduce the accumulation of salts and
minerals in the cooler when running for
long periods it is essential to bleed a
certain amount of water. Increased flow of
make up water reduces the salt content.
The bleed rate will vary with the water
supply quality, but should initially be set to
the minimum recommended bleed rates
as set out in Bleed System (page 7). If
your water supply is of poor quality, higher
bleed off rates are necessary to ensure
reasonable pad life and cooler
performance. Place the hose from the
bleed tap into the overflow pipe. ( Fig. 6)
Connect suitable pipe work to bottom of
the overflow bush so that water drains
directly to waste. Drain plumbing must be
in accordance with local regulations
