Definitions

  • the apparatus may include a sampling conduit having an inlet which is connectable to the hot water system and an outlet which is connectable to the drain.
  • the apparatus includes a motor for operating the tap.
  • the temperature sensor is in contact with the tap.
  • the temperature sensor is in contact with the stem of the tap.
  • the controller may be adapted to open the valve in response to the measured temperature being greater or equal to a predetermined value.
  • the predetermined value may be greater than 60 degrees C.
  • the predetermined value may be around 70 degrees C.
  • the controller may be connected to a boiler control unit which is adapted to control the boiler for performing a pasteurisation cycle.
  • the command from the boiler control unit to the boiler to perform the pasteurisation cycle is also received by the controller.
  • a method of monitoring the temperature of water in a hot water system of a building comprising the steps of:
  • the method may include connecting the inlet of a sampling conduit to the hot water system and connecting an outlet of the sampling conduit to the drain.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic view of an apparatus in accordance with a first embodiment of the invention.
  • the control station can sent an instruction to the controller 50 to close the valve 30.
  • the controller 50 can include a timer and the controller 50 can close the valve 30 after the expiry of a pre-set time interval of at least 60 seconds.
  • control station may send a command to the boiler 110 to raise the water temperature to 72 degrees C. Once this has been achieved, the water is then circulated around the system by the pump 112. The control station now sends an instruction to the controller 50 to open the valve 30.
  • the temperature sensor 40 can be used to confirm that the water is at the correct temperature. After performing the pasteurisation cycle, the control station can control the boiler 110 to reduce the water temperature back to normal conditions. The control station also instructs the controller 50 to close the valve 30.
