8.4 Connection of mains-water pipe
The built-in float valve is designed for a maximum
pressure of 6.0 bar.
The float valve has a simple filter in the inlet. If the
mains water is particularly dirty, we recommend that
you fit a strainer in front of the inlet to the float valve.

We recommend that you fit an isolating valve in the
fixed installation.
Procedure:
1. Connect the mains-water pipe to the mains-water
hose of the unit. See fig. 1 (4).
2. Fasten the mains-water pipe with pipe clamps.
The first hose clamp must be fitted at a maximum
distance of 10-15 cm from the unit.
3. Check that the float valve is positioned straight in
the mains-water tank. See fig. 7.
– The float valve must be able to move freely up
and down without touching the sides of the
tank.
