The AMH3K-RN is an on-demand version of the AMH3K-R model system and does NOT have a timer. On-demand gives you the ability to control system activation through a switch or motion sensor. When activated, the pump shuts off after 5 minutes or when the water temperature reaches 105 F.  Additional on-demand switches, motion sensors, etc (AMK- parts below) have to be purchased to activate the pump.

Note that in an open expansion tank fresh air is constantly absorbed in the water and tends to corrode the system. Open expansion tanks must also be located above the highest heating element, in general on the top of buildings, where they may be exposed to freezing.
