Descripción

Product description The Advantages & Benefits of Using AutoHot DR055U Can be used on any standard plumbing system with any type of tank, tankless, or heat pump water heater.Eliminates the wait for hot water providing comfort and convenience.Running faucets and showers waiting to get hot water can easily waste as much as 30 gallons of water daily. Save on average 3,000 to 11,000 gallons of water annually.The AutoHot Residential Demand Controller 55-Series Pump uses the on-demand activation and temperature sensors to turn the pump on and off.AutoHot Demand Recirculation will maintain the performance and efficiency of any heat pump water heater.Costs less than $5.00 per year in energy to operate. How Does On-Demand Hot Water Recirculation System Work? AutoHot works in any plumbing system, whether you have a dedicate return line or just standard plumbing, and works with any tank or tankless water heater. Building Energy Code Requirements Central to a high-performing hot water distribution system is an on-demand recirculation pump. Building energy codes and performance certifications are now requiring that buildings that use hot water recirculation pumps, must also have demand controls to help regulate the system run time for reduced energy losses. Using and specifying the AutoHot system will help your building meet these code requirements and ensure efficient hot water delivery in any application. Look for these requirements in such new building standards such as: 2016 California Title 24, 2015 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), The Department of Energy Zero Energy Ready Home (ZERH) program, LEED for Homes v4 and others. For Use on Standard Plumbing with a dedicated Return Line. Residential AutoHot Demand Recirculation System eliminates the wait for hot water in any home or light commercial plumbing system, saving thousands of gallons of water per year.Operates only on demand, when needed.Reduces pump run time over 90 percent, the most efficient hot water recirculation system available today.Meets the most current energy code requirements for recirculation pump demand controls including IECC and California Title 24.Includes wired and wireless activation switches Step-by-Step Guide for Installing AutoHot on a Dedicated Return Line System Step 1 When installing on a dedicated return line (see figure 1 for an example), an -USK under sink kit is not needed. This assumes the Taak Hot Water Reta Line house has a return pipe, which usually means there is an existing recirculation pump. For standard plumbing, install the pump near the water heater between flanges. If the pump is already available, flanges may be already there, otherwise, there might be a need to order plumbing parts that are readily available at any local plumbing supplier to connect the piping to the flanges. Step 2 Once the flanges are in place, bolt the pump in between the flanges, and make sure to insert the O-rings or gaskets in between the pump and the flanges to create a watertight seal. Make sure to relieve any air from the system and so that the pump can move water properly and avoid pump damage. Note: In this situation, the system is not near the sink. Another option is to order wireless push buttons and motion sensors that would be placed in each bathroom to remotely activate the pump. Step 3 The placement of the temperature sensors should be as follows: T1 Placement- On the return line as far upstream of the pump as the wire length and available return line permit.This sensor is important to the operation of the pump control, as the lockout temp determines when the pump should and shouldn't run.Install controller on wall with screws/anchors, plug in to outlet, plug in pump to controller female power cord, pair wireless activators if applicable.
