4.4 Connecting the outlet
x
Use suitable pipes.
x
Do not use any right-angled bends. Bends with a maximum angle of 45° are very efficient.
x
Standing water in pipes can freeze when there is a hard frost and cause pipes to burst. For this reason, lay
the pipes and hoses with a gradient (50 mm/m) to ensure that they can run empty.
