This water heater must be installed by a licensed person as required by
the Victorian Building Act 1993.
Only a licensed person will give you a Compliance Certificate, showing that
the work complies with all the relevant standards. Only a licensed person will
have insurance protecting their workmanship for 6 years. Make sure you use

WARNING: Plumber – Be Aware
• The solar hot and solar cold pipes between the solar storage tank and
the solar collectors
MUST BE of copper and fully insulated with closed
cell polymer insulation or similar (minimum thickness 13 mm). Thicker
insulation may be required to comply with the requirements of
AS/NZS 3500.4. The insulation must be weatherproof and UV resistant if
exposed. All compression fittings must use brass or copper olives.
• Plastic pipe MUST NOT be used, as it will not withstand the temperature
of the closed circuit fluid generated by the solar collectors under
stagnation conditions. The solar collectors can generate extremely high
closed circuit fluid temperatures of up to 150°C. Plastic pipe cannot
withstand these temperatures and
MUST NOT be used. Failure of plastic
pipe can lead to the release of high temperature closed circuit fluid and
cause severe water damage and flooding.
