How to use:   Useful tips:
1. Attach the hose from the cold tank to a cold water source. Allow both tanks to fill (The hot tank is fed from the cold tank) Leave the hose permanently attached to the water source. The cold tank has a ball valve which will allow the tank to top up as the water is used.

2. Plug the lead from the emersion tank into a 13amp socket directly from the wall. Do not use a domestic/lightweight extension lead as that will be overloaded. The on/off switch is on the control panel.
Allow 3 hours to heat fully from cold. Leave the emersion heater on for the duration of the shoot to maintain the water temperature in the hot tank.

3. Attach the hose from the mixer valve to the shower rose or tap, of point the hose directly into the bath.

4. Plug the pump into a 13amp power supply.

5. Open the mixer tap on the control panel.

6. Open the tap on your shower/bath set.

7. PRESS THE SILVER BUTTON ON THE CONTROL PANEL.

The water will be pumped through. Adjust for temperature and pressure on the control panel.
  1. The pump has a 45ft head of pressure so does not have to be immediately beside the shower/bath set. If the set is on the first floor, the unit can be positioned on the ground floor and will pump the water up.


2. If water is needed for pre-light, use cold only.
 


3. On set-up day leave the emersion heater on overnight so that water is piping hot in the morning.
 


4. The units are designed to supply water for short takes.

 

IF RUN CONTINUOUSLY THE WATER WILL SOON RUN COLD.
