Hi, We've got a small industrial unit and need hot water for 2 sinks so have got a Hyco speedflow 10L unvented heater. The instructions mention that if the nearest draw off for cold water is less than 2.8m away then no extra parts are needed, but that an expansion vessel & check valve is needed for other installations.
Sorry if I'm being thick, but an Undersink heater will always have a tap nearby, wont it? It goes on to add that an expansion vessel and check valve are needed to stop hot water expanding into the cold supply.... OR that an expansion vessel & pressure reduce valve are needed to stop the pressure relief valve leaking constantly.
Question is, is it wise to fit the unit under the sink and look for the 2 above problems to appear before deciding if we'll need the extras or not?
many thanks in advance.
