Warix flange see Figure 23
A. The Vent connection MUST be from side in
Warix Flange.
B. The supply connection to the pump MUST
BE FROM THE TOP of the Warix Flange via a
22mm compression elbow and thereby avoid
inverted loops.
C. In systems where there are one bathroom
and an en-suite shower. Or two or more
bathrooms the cold feed to the cylinder should
ideally be in 28mm pipework.

Inverted loops
An inverted loop in the supply pipe-work
to the pump, particularly on the hot side as
illustrated; is likely to:
•
Interfere with the initiation and smooth
operation of the pump.
•
Restrict the supply water to the pump and
risk internal mechanical damage

Water hammer protection
Water hammer most commonly occurs in
systems where there are long pipe runs
supplying solenoid activated appliances
e.g. washing machines or outlets with quick
acting/turn taps/ valve(s). The harmful
effect of water hammer shock waves can be
cushioned by fitting a pressure vessel unit,
into the supply pipework as close as possible
to the outlet from which the shock waves are
originating.
