Connecting water
• Note: The VAQ E operates under mains water pressure and must always be
fitted with the supplied inlet combination and pressure reducing valves.
• The Nordic single tap, the Fusion or the Flex tap must be installed according
to the locally applicable regulations.
• The inlet combination valve will release drips of expansion water while the
water in the tank is heating up in order to regulate the pressure inside the tank.
• Position the inlet combination valve as high as possible to create a sufficient
height distance between the valve and the point where the waste hose con-
nects to the waste pipe. This is necessary to allow the expansion water to
flow away and to prevent water from backing up from the waste pipe (see the
figure at step D4).
1 Cutting through
cold water pipe
Close the main shut-off valve. Cut
through the cold water pipe at a
suitable point.
2 Fitting T-joint
Fit a T-joint (not supplied) between
the pipe sections.
3 Fitting pressure
reducing valve
Connect the pressure reducing valve
to the T-joint with a piece of copper
piping (Ø 15mm). Note: The pressure
reducing valve must be fitted in the
correct direction (see image).
4 Fitting the inlet
combination valve
Connect the inlet combination valve to
the pressure reducing valve.
