    Default Hot Water System

    I need to reclad the outside of my reno job. Just using Hardiflex boards. The HWS has to be rmoved before I start but it is about 1.5 mtr high on the wall. Why do they put them up there? Real handy to knock your head on. If it is mains pressure wouldn't it be better of on the ground?
    Regards
    Greg

    If its mains pressure it really wouldn't matter where it was but is a bit unusual.

    The instatanious ones often have a little diagnosis diplay on the front. That's the only reaon I could think it might be put at head height ... I have seen a number of them at that height and always wondered why, because it often means they are more visible too.

    Mine is much lower ... and works.
