Thermann Owner’s Manual
4 Star Gas Hot Water Heater
13
H4127 Rev. B
How Long Will The Heater Run Each
Day?
The length of time that the heater will
run each day will vary dependent upon
the amount of hot water being used by
the household.
Caution:
All water heaters have the
ability to produce hot water in a
surprisingly short time. To reduce the
risk of scald injury, it is mandatory
under the requirements of Australian
Standards AS3500 that an Australian
Standards approved temperature
control valve be fitted to the hot water
supply pipe work. This valve should be
checked at regular intervals to ensure
its operation and settings remain
correct.
What Should I Do During Holidays?
If the hot water system is not used,
for two weeks or more, a quantity
of hydrogen gas, which is highly
flammable, may accumulate in the
water heater. To dissipate this gas
safely, it is recommended that a hot
tap be turned on for several minutes
at a sink, basin or bath but not a
dishwasher, clothes washer, or other
appliance. During this procedure
there must be no smoking, open
flame or any other electrical appliance
operating nearby. If hydrogen is
discharged through the tap, it will
probably make an unusual noise
similar to air escaping.
Note:
There are no user serviceable
components in the system.
How Does My System Work?
The Thermann water storage tank
is used to store the heated water
ready for household use. It has a high
temperature vitreous enamel lining to
provide long life, and a high density
polyurethane insulation to ensure
minimal heat loss.
Never turn the gas supply off during
normal use
