Warning
The installation should be carried out by a competent person, in compliance with
general and locally applicable regulations.
Cold water side
See (A) in the installation diagram (2.1 "Installation diagram").
1. Fit an approved stop valve (4) on the cold water side as required by the
applicable regulations.
2. The maximum working pressure of the storage tank is 10 bar. Because the
pressure in the water pipe at times can exceed 10 bar, you must fit an approved
pressure-reducing valve (1).
3. Fit a non-return valve (5) and an expansion vessel (16).
4. Fit an expansion valve (15) and connect the overflow side to an open waste water
pipe.
