How to switch a boiler for heating water

The first launch of the water heater after installation, downtime or conservation

Electric boilers are designed for constant operation with the maximum disconnection period for no more than a few months. Before the first launch of the system or its activation after prolonged downtime, it is important to observe a number of rules and recommendations listed below in this article.

Installing the boiler, its connection to the water and electric network requires professional skills and knowledge. When installing, it is important to comply with sanitary standards and electrical safety rules. Installation of a system for heating water is recommended to trust qualified masters. With independent installation, you must first study the instructions, equip high.Quality grounding for wiring.

If the power of the water heater exceeds 3 kW, a separate fishing line is usually allocated for it for the power of energy supply. If all the conditions and standards of installation are met, it is allowed to make the first launch. The sequence of actions is performed in the following order:

Make a visual inspection of all connected communications: there should be no rod parts of the wiring, curvature at the joints, cracks on the couplings and pipes. All compounds must be made using proper fittings, plumbing pads, insulating material.

Installation of electrical equipment is carried out with blocked taps of hot and cold water supply. Before the first launch of the boiler, first slowly open the valve with cold water. At this moment, the water tank of the boiler is filled. The user needs to check the tank and pipes for the presence of leaks with an open tap.

If there are no problems with sealing, the valve of cold water supply opens at full power. Similar actions are performed by a relative crane of hot water.

When the tank tank is filled, go to testing the operability of the water heater itself. Gently open the tap connected to the boiler. Immediately after turning, you will hear a characteristic noise, and the water will come out with shocks mixed with air. There are no reasons for concern here. You need to wait until the flow of water from the tank becomes uniform, while checking the quality of the insulation of the pipes at the output.

Close the taps of the boiler and wait for the tank with water to fully fill. Only after that, the device can be included in the network and check the performance of the heater. If you connect earlier, unstable operation of the heater is possible due to the remaining air in the tank.

After connecting the boiler to the network, from 30 to 120 minutes until the water is completely heated in the container. The exact time depends on the temperature set in the settings of the equipment, the volume of the tank and the power of the heating element.

Perform all actions at first strictly in accordance with the user’s management, while the operation of the water heater will not be familiar to you. And if there is a need to “preserve” or leave equipment for a while in downtime, read our recommendations below.

Requirements for a storage water heater

Before using a water boiler, you need to familiarize yourself with its main characteristic features:

• When using storage heaters, so that the water temperature rises to the optimal one, it is necessary for some time.
• The pressure of water depends on the pressure in the system. Accordingly, for the accumulative and running water heaters there will be different operating conditions.
• Protopotal water heaters are cheaper than flowing, but more expensive in operation, as they consume electricity constantly while the crane is opened.
• The principle of the functioning of the accumulative heater in heating pre.Accumulated water to high temperature and subsequently maintaining it at this level. Electricity is also spent on this, but in much smaller quantities.
• Household electric water heaters do not have special requirements for reliability of wiring. When connecting to the water supply, it does not require particularly high pressure.
• Gas water heaters operate from a conventional gas distribution network, but specialists must be connected to connect them.
• Accumulative boilers need regular maintenance, especially if water with increased impurities in the water supply.
• It is undesirable to use water from storage heaters for drinking. For flowing, this restriction does not work.
• Boilers usually take up a lot of space, especially floor models with a large tank.

Procedure

How to turn on a boiler so that hot water appears? To do this, you need to perform the actions listed below in the following order:

• Open the hot water crane on the mixer and make sure that. Shut off valve.
• Open a crane with a blue circle at the inlet of the water heater, then the output crane indicated by a red mark. Wait a while until all the air comes out of the system, if there was no water in the boiler. Next is the process of filling the water heater.
• In the event that the boiler was filled with water, you only need to drain it a little and close the crane with a red circle.
• Before turning on the boiler in the outlet, it is necessary to completely fill the tank with water. Otherwise, there is a risk of blocking the tubular heater if the model is not equipped with a protection system.
• In the process of heating of the water, it is important to control the temperature indicator and the supply of voltage at the heater.

Experts advise setting the working temperature regime of the device at the level of 55-60 ° C. This will help to avoid the development of fungi and bacteria in the tank, as well as prevent the formation of scale on the heating element.
