@TradElINk MOVING THROUGH TRADEDOOR Frequently Asked Questions: How to keep a list of most used items. The easiest way to keep a list of your favourite items for use in the Quote Tool is to set up a template. Not only will a template keep the products you use regularly, you can also set specific quantities and custom items (such as labour) to cover most situations. To set up a template, simply log into TradeDoor and click on ‘Create New Template’ button. Add the products you need from the search box, specify the quantities required and click ‘Save’. There are no limits to how many products you put in your templates. You can edit the default quantities of the template at any time by typing in the new amount and clicking the ‘Update Qty’s’ button to set them. To delete an item, you must click the x icon. Setting an item to zero it will not remove it from the template.

National winners both NRL and AFL RINNAI ImPRESSOR 5 OUtDOOR KItChEN VALUED At $3,500 NEw aNd ExCITINg from TradElINk RINNAI CONTINUOUS FLOW UPGRADE As a result of recent legislation and market changes, Rinnai have reviewed and evolved their leading range of continuous flow hot water units. A number of changes have occurred across the range, including an improved Builders range, the introduction of a new 60ºC temperature setting (to replace 55ºC models) and increased warranty periods on the INFINITY and Builders ranges. There have been numerous temperature setting changes, with the Classic INFINITY and Builders models reintroducing two temperature options, while all Heavy Duty models previously set at 65ºC will now be supplied as 75ºC. Solar Boosters will increase to 70ºC to meet pending legislation changes. Furthermore, Rinnai have introduced a standard range of approved Warm Water appliances (42ºC) for domestic and commercial use, and the HD models are now also available in 50ºC preset. In addition, all domestic and commercial 50ºC preset models are now adjustable by the plumber to offset any heat loss through the pipe work. Similar to tempering valves, the plumber can adjust the Rinnai units by up to 4ºC - ensuring that 50ºC is delivered at the tap, not just out of the hot water system.

ElECTrICal HazardS for PlUmbErS Due to the nature of earthing electrical installations and metallic water systems, plumbers are at risk of serious or fatal electric shock if care is not taken. In most premises, the earthing of electrical installation is achieved by the connection of the main earth wire to an earthing electrode that is driven into the ground. This helps maintain the earthing system at ground potential and creates a path for electricity should a fault develop in the electrical installation. However, because metallic water systems in the premises are also bonded to the earthing circuit, they can be subject to a potential risk under electrical fault conditions. Plumbers are at significant risk if they: • Cut through the water pipe between the earth connection and the street main • Remove a water meter • Disconnect the main earth wire from the water pipe Commonly found in older premises, dangerous power points can also pose a problem, with the insulation on wiring deteriorating to the extent that a live wire and earth wire have touched, causing the earth contacts to be live. This means anything plugged into that outlet would become live, turning metal frames into a potentially deadly source of electrical shock. It is strongly recommended that a power point safety tester be used before testing any equipment. A portable safety switch, also known as a Residual Current Device (RCD), should be used for all equipment including extension leads for added protection against accidents such as faults or damaged cords. When working on metallic water pipe systems, the safest way to approach the situation is to locate the www.kohler.com.au main switch/switches for the premises and turn them off. You should then use a bridging conductor to bond across the section of pipe to be cut and keep it in place until work is completed. It is highly recommended that a braided copper lead, which will carry 70 amps or more with insulated screw clamps, be used. Ensure the pipe surface is thoroughly cleaned and in good electrical contact with the clamps. If the main earth connection to the water pipe has to be disconnected, it will be necessary to contact an electrical contractor to perform this task and make any alterations necessary in order to maintain an effective earthing system. If a metallic water service is being replaced with plastic water pipe, it will be necessary to have an electrical contractor make the necessary alterations to the earthing system, therefore ensuring that the installation main earthing system remains effective. If you see electric arcs or experience tingles, it is imperative that you contact the local electrical network operator as a fault may exist. Finally, don’t forget to check the location of underground cables before you start digging on site. This information was taken from the Plumbing Industry Guide to Site Safety 2011.
