2) The inlet water pressure must not exceed 80% of the tank's relief valve setting. If it is, the plumber must fit a pressure limiting valve to reduce the inlet water pressure. When inlet pressures exceed 600kpa or 85PSI, it is recommended that the plumber install a 500kpa pressure limiting valve. If the water pressure is not controlled the cylinder, seals and valves will be over-stressed.
Let's break it down like this: you've got the old-school hot water heaters (tanks) and the new school of energy efficient water heaters (tankless).

Heat pumps are supposed to be the best option as supplements of solar water heaters. It's really a good news. It's learned that heat pumps, replacing boilers, gas and electricity,areappointedto be the supplements for most of new and renovation solar water heating projects. Because huge water heating projects need both of them, solar and heat pumps become partner and friends.
