Installation and Service Manual

Water Chemistry

The required temperature rise and the standard pump sizing are based on the heating of potable water with a hardness of 5 to 25 grains per gallon and a total dissolved solids not exceeding 350 ppm. Consult the appliance manufacturer when heating potable water exceeding these specifications. Heating of high hardness and/or high total dissolved solids water will require a larger circulating pump, an optional cupro-nickel heat exchanger and a revised temperature rise specification based on the water chemistry of the water to be heated. Water with a hardness of less than 5 grains per gallon will usually have a low pH which can be aggressive and corrosive causing non- warrantable damage to the heater, pump and associated piping. Corrosion due to water chemistry generally shows up first in the hot water system because heated water increases the rate of corrosive chemical reactions.

Pipe Sizing Chart

This pump is sized based on installation of a single storage tank and heater in close proximity. If the number of fittings and straight pipe exceeds the quantities shown in this section, a larger pump will be required.

The standard pump selection is based on the following pipe and fittings from the unit to the storage tank:
