However, if desired, an externalby-pass can be plumbed in for use if the heater isdisconnected or to isolate it from the hydrauliccircuit. In this way water would still flow but notthrough the heater unit. When the heater is inoperation, this by-pass must not be used i.e. the 3way valves must be set to channel the full flowthrough the heater unit and nothing via theexternal by-pass.3g: Building Heating3g.1: System VolumeIt is important to have adequate water volume in the system to provide an opportunity for thewater heater to sense a load change, adjust to the change and stabilize. As the expected loadchange becomes more rapid, a greater water volume is needed. The system water volume is theDocument Number : QDC0049PD-5 Page 14 of 33
