Selection Process
The following information is required to select a manifold pack:
- Inlet water temperature (eg: 15°C average coastal cold water temperature)
- Temperature required at point of use (eg: 40°C for a shower)
Therefore net temperature rise is known (eg: 40-15 = 25°C)
- Simultaneous flow rate required (eg: 5 x 3 star (AAA) 9 l/min showers = 45 l/min)
- Internal or External installation
