Hot water cylinder or storage tank: When a hot water cylinder or storage tank
is used, ensure the pipework size from the cold water storage to the hot water
storage is of adequate size and a minimum of 22 mm.

Hot water supply: The pump must be supplied with a dedicated feed direct
from the hot water cylinder or storage tank, ensuring an air free connection to the
