FAQs

What is the purpose of the pressure reducer in this kit?

The 3 bar preset pressure reducer lowers high incoming mains water pressure to a safe and consistent level suitable for the Megaflo system, preventing damage and ensuring optimal performance.

Is this kit suitable for all hot water systems?

No, this specific kit (95605894) is designed exclusively for use with the Heatrae Sadia Megaflo unvented hot water system.

Do I need a professional to install this kit?

Yes, due to the nature of unvented hot water systems and the need to comply with safety regulations, installation must be carried out by a qualified and certified professional.

How often should the pressure relief valve be checked?

While the valve requires no routine user maintenance, it's good practice to have it inspected by a qualified engineer during annual system servicing to ensure it is functioning correctly.

What does the non-return valve do?

The non-return valve prevents hot water from flowing back into the cold water mains supply, which helps maintain water quality and system integrity.

Can I adjust the pressure setting myself?

No, the pressure reducer is preset and should only be adjusted or serviced by a qualified engineer. Tampering with it can compromise safety and system performance.

Troubleshooting

Low hot water flow from taps

Check that the isolation valve is fully open. Verify that the pressure relief valve is not weeping. Ensure the incoming mains pressure is adequate. A qualified engineer should check the pressure reducer.

Water hammer or banging noises

This may indicate excessive system pressure or water hammer arrestors are needed. Ensure the pressure reducer is functioning correctly. Consult a professional plumber.

Pressure relief valve is constantly discharging water

This indicates system pressure is too high, likely due to a faulty pressure reducer or an issue with the primary expansion system. Do not ignore this; contact a qualified engineer immediately.

Difficulty isolating water supply for maintenance

Ensure the isolation valve is operated smoothly. If stiff, do not force it; apply a suitable lubricant or seek professional assistance to prevent damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This kit is specifically designed for use with the Heatrae Sadia Megaflo unvented hot water systems. Ensure your system model is compatible before installation.

Setup: Installation should be performed by a qualified professional plumber or engineer, adhering to all relevant building and water regulations. The kit typically connects to the cold water inlet of the Megaflo unit.

Care: Minimal ongoing care is required. Regularly check for any visible signs of leaks around the connections.
