PIPEWORK CONNECTIONS
• Isolating valves: Always install isolating valves (not supplied) to
both suction and delivery pipe to aid future maintenance.
• STORMBOOST can be connected to mains water supply via the
15mm push fit hoses (supplied) or connected directly to
pipework.
• Incoming mains pressure can vary but must never exceed 6 bar. If
there is a possibility of exceeding 6 bar, separate inlet pressure
control must be fitted.
• To meet the requirements of the Water Supply (water fittings)
Regulations, a type EC – verifiable double check valve (not
supplied) must be fitted (Fig. 2).
• It is advisable to fit a bypass pipe and isolating valve. This will
allow removal of the pump for maintenance and servicing and
ensure the water supply into the property is still available during
that period (Fig. 2).
