10. Installation
10.1 Water connection
Material losses
!
Carry out all water connection and installation work in
accordance with regulations.
Operate the appliance only with pressure-tested taps.
10.1.1 Permissible materials
Material losses
!
When using plastic pipework, observe the manufacturer's
data and the chapter "Specification / Fault conditions".
Cold water line
Galvanised steel, stainless steel, copper and plastic are approved
materials.
DHW line
Stainless steel, copper and plastic pipework are approved ma-
terials.
10.1.2 Fitting the safety valve
Note
If the water pressure is greater than 0.6 MPa, install a
pressure reducing valve in the "cold water inlet".
The maximum permissible pressure must not be exceeded (see
chapter "Specification / Data table").
f Install a type-tested safety valve in the cold water supply
line. Please note that, depending on the static pressure, you
may also need a pressure reducing valve.
f Size the drain so that water can drain off unimpeded when
the safety valve is fully opened.
f Connect the hydraulic connections with flat gaskets.
f Fit the discharge pipe of the safety valve with a constant
downward slope and in a room free from the risk of frost.
f The safety valve discharge aperture must remain open to
atmosphere.

10.2 Appliance installation
Appliances with a nominal capacity of 120 l or 150 l require 2
people for installation.
10.3 Power supply
WARNING Electrocution
Carry out all electrical connection and installation work
in accordance with relevant regulations.
Before any work on the appliance, disconnect all poles
from the power supply.
WARNING Electrocution
Only use a permanent connection to the power supply.
Ensure the appliance can be separated from the power
supply by an isolator that disconnects all poles with at
least 3 mm contact separation.
WARNING Electrocution
Ensure that the appliance is earthed.
Material losses
Install a residual current device (RCD).
