5.2 Water connections
You will need the following components to plumb in the humidifier:
• An intercept tap;
•
Asupplementaryfiltertotheonealreadyinthesolenoidvalve;
• A pressure reducer (if the pressure of the mains water exceeds 1 MPa (10 bar)).

NOTICE
MALFUNCTIONING OF THE EQUIPMENT
• The feed water must have a minimum pressure of 0.2 MPa (2 bar).
• Connect the solenoid valve to the mains using the flexible hose supplied to reduce water hammers in the hose to the
