Product Information
Intended Use
The appliance is only intended to be installed and
operated in sealed pressurized systems with due attention
paid to these instructions.
DHW tanks are only designed to store and heat water
of potable water quality. Heating water buffer tanks are
only designed to hold fill water of potable water quality.
Only operate solar collectors with the heat transfer
medium approved by the manufacturer. Intended use
assumes that a fixed installation in conjunction with
permissible, system-specific components has been carried
out.
Commercial or industrial usage for a purpose other
than heating the building or DHW shall be deemed
inappropriate.
Any usage beyond this must be approved by the
manufacturer for the individual case.
Incorrect usage or operation of the appliance (e.g. the
appliance being opened by the system user) is prohibited
and results in an exclusion of liability.
Incorrect usage also occurs if the components in the
system are modified from their intended use (e.g.
through direct DHW heating in the collector).
Adhere to statutory regulations, especially concerning
the hygiene of potable water.
