Anti Legionella Function

Anti Legionella Function

After 24 hours of inactivity, the HIU will bring the domestic hot water plate heat exchanger up to temperature to prevent legionella from growing. The heat exchanger is heated to 57°C for a period of at least 60 minutes.

It is not possible to specify the time at which this occurs, however it will stop immediately upon a hot water draw off.
