Connect heater only at first glance seems simple.As in any other business, there are some features which will enable compliance with the household appliance for many years to please the owners of correct operation and hot water.Although the vast global network is a set of recommendations, a rare article provides all the details - that one point is ignored, then the other.We have tried to take this into account and offer a more detailed procedure, you need to properly connect the water heater.First, a little theory.
known that water - the basis of life.A component of the comfortable life - hot water.Hello, of course, sometimes to visit the bathhouse, but one day it will not drown, and hygiene rules require it everyday bathing.In addition, much easier to wash the dishes under running pouring hot water from the tap, not in the basin with the dirty liquid.The conclusion is simple - water heater needs.They can be electric or gas water heater analog.Let us dwell on the second, as the connection of the heater of this type does not require coordination with the services of gas supply of the village, in other words, cheaper.
In the market there are two types of such devices - the flow and storage.The difference in operation principle.The first heated to the desired temperature by passing them cold water, and the second portion of heated water which is then "squeezed" in hot water cold.Connecting the instantaneous water heater is not easy and not difficult - it is different.Such devices are very compact and can be installed even in a small room.In accordance with the instruction based on the water heater install - it can be a wall, sometimes the mixer.Unlike storage-type heaters, "protochniki" must be placed close to the point of demand.In most cases, true the rule of "one heater - one tap."It leads to the cold water line - it will serve.Branch hot should go to the hot water tap in the mixer.It's pretty simple, and if the lines are not the Soviet times, the work is done in half an hour.Connection heater difficult because usually it is required to supply separate electric line network.The power of these devices starts at 3 kW, so they can not be included in a home wiring socket - branches do not count on such loads.Draw a new line directly from the distribution panel, put the machine.A person unfamiliar with electrical engineering, it is better to invite a specialist.
But connecting water heater (boiler) can be performed independently.Its electric power is rarely more than 3 kW and that is for models with two heating elements.Typically 1.2 - 1.5 kW, which is comparable with a modern iron.If not included in the power cord, it must be purchased separately, along with the plug.The minimum permissible cross-section of copper wires - 1 mm.kv.For networks with a grounded three-wire cable is needed.It is advisable not to swap the phase, zero and earth - this will ensure the proper functioning of the magnesium anode.The connection points are always marked (to access it you need to remove the bottom plastic cover of the boiler).If the power cord provided by the manufacturer is sufficient to enable it plug into the outlet.
Important: The boiler can not be included in the network until it is filled with water.It is recommended to install a heater to a separate machine, or RCD.
Fastening the unit to the wall using dowels carry-hooks.Their diameter depends on the capacity of the tank, but no more than the slot in the mounting bar of the housing.Lower point of the pipes should be above mixers.
Water connection is simple - both the pipe marked by the arrow and color (blue - for cold water, red - hot).In the first feed pipe is wound from a safety valve set - it prevents possible damage to the tank shell at excessive heat.
