the laundry.
The customer must install prior to the boiler, a flexible pipe, a filter, and a tap onto the cold
soft water, or hot soft water supply of the laundry.
It is vital that softened water is used to prevent tartar building up around heating equipment.
The hardness of soft water must be 7 and 15 TH (°f).
The water hardness, or total hardness (TH), is expressed in French degrees (°f) or ppm.
One °f is equivalent to 4 mg of calcium per litre and 2.4 mg of magnesium per litre.
Caution: it is not enough to just know the TH to know water’s tartar capacity. This requires
knowledge of all the characteristic parameters of water and complex calculations.
Autonomous boiler purge connection, DN10 (3/8") female

The customer must connect the boiler to the waste water collector of the laundry using a tube
and in respect to the local legislation on waste waters.
