Installing the water heater.

Rectify leakage if observed at any of the connections and repeat steps indicated on previous page.

Release the pressure from the closed loop by loosening the PR6 valve from the Test Block.

When the pressure is zero, tighten the

PR6 Jacket Relief Valve.

Once again remove the Fill Plug from the Fill Assembly and connect the hose.

Remove the PR6 Jacket Relief Valve and siphon the entire contents of the blue Hartgard container with help of the hose.

Water will flow through the PR6 port on the Test Block during this operation.

When the Hartgard container is completely empty, refit the PR6 valve onto the Test Block.

Remove the hose from the Fill Assembly.

Allow the fluid to flow until it stops.

(This checks the vacuum seal on the PR6 valve).

Once the flow stops, screw in the Fill Plug.

Pressurize the Closed Loop to 11.6 psi as before with the help of the bicycle pump and ensure there is no leak at the Fill Assembly.

Ensure that the pressure remains at 11.6 psi for at least 10 minutes, as before.

Release the pressure from the closed loop by removing the PR6 Valve from the Test Block.

Remove the Test Block from the Tank.

Fit the PR6 Valve in its place on the tank after ensuring that the “O” ring is in its seat.
