3.1 Select appropriate push fi t connector for chosen entry position:
Bottom entry water - 15mm x 15mm 90º elbow.
Rear entry water- 15mm x 15mm straight.
Note: Stainless or chromed pipes DO NOT provide secure connections with
push fi t fi ttings (use copper pipe at joints).
3.2 Push the connector fully home (28mm engagement) onto the solenoid valve
inlet spigot. To remove a push fi t connector the collar (collet) should be pushed
towards the body of the fi tting whilst pulling the connector off the pipe.
3.3 If the inlet pipe run is horizontal and beneath the unit ensure it does not prevent
access to the case screws.
3.4 Connect the inlet pipe to the push fi t connector ensuring it is fully pushed home
(28mm engagement). After connection DO NOT make soldered joints in the
pipe work close to the heater, as the heat may damage the connector or the
water heater itself.
3.5 A WRAS listed isolating valve should be fi tted to the cold supply to facilitate
servicing the heater.
3.6 Push fi t connectors are supplied to allow either bottom or rear entry of services.
