Connecting the drain hose

The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:

1.Over the edge of a wash basin: The drain hose must be placed at a height of between 60 and 90 cm. To keep the drain hose spout bent, use the supplied plastic hose guide. Secure the guide to the wall with a hook or to the tap with a piece of string to prevent the drain hose from moving.

The standpipe drain requires;

• minimum diameter 5 cm.

• minimum carry-away capacity 60 liter per minute.
