Function and features
3.1
Generalities
To improve the quality of hot water distribution in water
heaters and boilers, while making them compatible with
thermal, solar-powered systems for heating household
water. Its function involves maintaining a constant
setting for the temperature of the mixed water that is
provided for use, when conditions for supplying hot and
cold water vary.
The Solar Kit can operate continuously, with hot water
temperatures resulting from solar accumulation or from
the support device.
Advantages
• Prevents hot water burns and damage to devices;
• Use of the solar kit does not require the purchase of a
separate solar water heater;
• The support appliance works only if the solar system's
water temperature is lower than 45 °C, without
reducing the flow rate;
• Savings in maintenance costs (the appliance has a
shorter running time)
