Cold Water Supply Pipe
• Size the cold water supply piping to allow for
maximum flow rates of the building.
• Be sure to connect the cold water supply pipe
between the hot water storage tank and intake
side of the storage tank recirculation pump.

The pump will push water through the Multi-System to heat up the tank.
When the temperature of the thermostat is high, the system controller will turn off the pump until
the temperature cools down.
• Use copper or stainless water piping for the entire system.
• For the set temperature of the Remote Controller, use the temperature (of the thermostat) +
about 10°F.
• To achieve the highest recovery, size the storage tank recirculation pump for maximum capacity.
NOTE
• 9 GPM (each) @ 40 ft of head (160°F setting or less) + piping losses through the
system.
• Verify the supply pressure to the Water Heaters is at least 30 psi.
