17.ANTIFREEZE. This is an array of ceramic power resistors IN SERIES which are clipped
onto the water carrying pipes or are imbedded into the water valves and fittings. They are
all connected with fibreglass wiring and are 240V MAINS POWERED AT ALL TIMES,
providing the unit is plugged in and power switch is on.
The frost sensor is attached to the outlet of the heat exchanger at the top LH side of
the unit. It is recommended that power be left on to this unit even when the home is
vacant, (such as at holiday time) to ensure that the risk of damage from frozen pipes and
components is minimised.
CAUTION: Power must be applied at all times for this heater circuit to effectively
protect the unit in frosty conditions.
18. DRAIN The unit can be drained (if it is desired to switch off all power to the unit)by
removing the inlet water filter AND the outlet pressure relief valve on the hot water
outlet fitting.
19. THERMAL FUSE. A thermal fuse is fitted on the rear of the heat exchanger in a fiberglass
sleeve. This must only be replaced with a genuine part from Alliance.
