Maintenance
Warning: The water in both of the tanks is hot
enough that it could scald.
4.
Close the Household Water isolation valve.
5.
Turn on a hot water faucet to relieve pressure
from the system.
6.
Turn on another faucet, to allow air into the
system.
7.
open the drain valve at the bottom of the Solar
Storage Tank and drain approximately 2 gallons
(7.5 liters) of water from the tank, so that when
the rods are removed water does not splash
out of the hole.
8.
unthread the Anode rod from top of tank. The
rod may be rusted in place, the use of spray
lubricant will assist in removing the rod.
9.
Add sealant, pipe compound or Teflon tape,
to the threads on the new anode, so that the
threads are sealed from leaking. Ensure that
there is allowance made for contact between
the tank metal and the anode rod.
!
nOTE: Test the installation with a volt meter, by
ensuring that there is electrical continuity between
the anode head and the pipe nipple.
10.
open the main shut off valve and let the water
run until full streams are coming out of both
open water faucets. Close both faucets.
11.
Actuate the pressure relief valve located on the
top of the Solar Storage Tank until water comes
out, and all of the air has been removed.
12.
Restore power and fuel to both of the water
heating systems.
Solar Controller
CauTiOn: Do not operate
recognisable damage to the Solar Controller,
cables or the connected pumps and valves.
There is no specific maintenance that is required
for the Solar Controller. A visible inspection is all
that is required. Ensure that the cover has not
been damaged, the wires going in and out of the
Solar Controller have no signs of wear or damage
and that all of the wires/connections within the
Solar Controller are still secure.
