CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY
COLD FILL ONLY
BENEFITS
•
Removes the requirement to need a hot water supply.
•
Cold water relaxes fabrics, whilst hot water can seal in stains.
•
Improved stain removal.
•
Biological detergents contain enzymes which are active between 30°C and 53°C giving greater
results at lower temperatures.
•
The most commonly used programme at present is 40°C which will use cold water at present
even when hot and cold are available.
•
At present only programmes above 60°C use hot water as part of the fill cycle and only
contributes to a very small proportion of the overall water intake.
•
You only heat the water required to the correct temperature which makes it cheaper to run.
COLD FILL CONNECTION AND HOT SUPPLY REMOVAL
The information below is contained in the customers Installation Guide.
Before making the connection to the cold water supply, allow the water to run freely from the
tap until it is perfectly clear.
1
Screw the cold water fill hose (blue
connector) onto the cold water supply until
tight.
2
Fit a 3/4” BSP sealing cap to the hot water
supply, to prevent unused supply leakage.
3
Turn on the cold water supply and check for
leaks, tighten if necessary.
4
Leave the unused hot water supply turned off.
The 3/4” BSP Sealing Cap required can be ordered under
Part Number 1605240.
The cold water pressure should be between 3 and 150 psi (21 - 1034 kPA). Incorrect pressure could
lead to flooding. Use the hose supplied with the machine. Do not use an old hose.
Electrical connection information can be found on the following page.
