SERVICE - MAINTENANCE

Your solar water heater should be serviced every two years by an authorized representative or a company technician.
These periodic checks are necessary for the solar water heater's warranty to apply. The inspection concerns the
whole system and more specifically:
1. Flange
2.
Safety valve
3. Heating element - thermostat
4. Connection fittings
5. Piping
6. Insulation - seals
It is recommended that the water storage tank
is cleaned of mineral deposits and sludge every
five years.
Especially for the replacement of the anode bar follow these steps:
1. Shut down the electrical supply.
2.
Empty the water from the water storage tank.
3. Remove the electrical component's cover.
4. Disconnect the three electrical wires.
5. Remove the electrical heating element by removing
the M8 screws.

element's flange.
