Water drain

The drainage hose can either be connected to a siphon or hung in a wash basin or discharge basin or a bath tub.

Only original hoses may be used for extensions (max. 3m laid on the floor and then up to 80cm high). Customer Service stocks drainage hoses in lengths of 2.7 and 4m.

Important! It is essential to lay the drainage hose without kinks.

Water drain-off inside a siphon

The grommet on the hose end fits all standard siphon types.

Secure the connection between the grommet and siphon with a hose clamp.

Water drain-off inside a basin

Important!

Small basins are not suitable for drainage. Water could overflow!

– The end of the drainage hose must not be submerged in the pumped-out water. Otherwise, the water could be sucked back into the unit.

When hanging in a wash basin

or a bath tub, the drainage hose must be secured with the sup- plied attachable bend to pre- vent it slipping. The back-surge force of the escaping water could otherwise force the hose out of the basin.

Tie the bend to the tap or the wall using a piece of string.

Delivery heads over 1m

To pump off the washing / rinsing solution, every washing machine has a drain pump which carries liquids up to a height of 1m via the drain- age hose, calculated from the machine's standing surface.

Please contact Customer Service for delivery heads of over 1m.
