The operation of the Quooker COMBI
The Quooker COMBI supplies boiling water via the Quooker tap and warm water
via the existing mixer tap. The system is delivered complete with a tank, inlet
combination, mixing valve and boiling water tap. The tank is vacuum-insulated
and connected to the cold water supply via the inlet combination. Inside the tank
the water is heated electrically to approx. 110°C and is kept at this temperature.
When water is drawn off, cold water flows into the tank at the same time and is
automatically heated. If the entire content is used in one go the heating time is
ca. 15 min (COMBI 3.0) to 20 min (COMBI 2.2). The Quooker COMBI supplies
warm water by mixing boiling water from the Quooker tank with cold water from
the water mains inside the mixing valve. A thermostatic control element inside the
valve keeps the outgoing water temperature constant. This temperature can be
set between 50°C and 65°C with the grey knob on the mixing valve. The mixing
valve is suitably protected against a loss in water pressure, preventing any boiling
water from flowing out of the mixer tap. Before the boiling water leaves the tank
it is purified by the HiTAC®water filter (High Temperature Activated Carbon).
To extend the life of the filter, the water used for mixing the warm water is not
filtered. All Quooker taps are fitted with a childproof push-and-turn handle and
are also height adjustable and insulated.
Installation, maintenance and warranty
The Quooker can be installed wherever there is a water supply and a socket.
Bear in mind that the tank must remain accessible for servicing. The Quooker
comes with a handy installation kit for easy fitting, and is maintenance-free.
The HiTAC®filter cartridge has to be replaced about once every five years, when
any lime scale that has built is also removed from the tank. In hard water areas
servicing may be carried out more frequently. The warranty period is two years
and covers supply of parts only. This does not include labour costs.
Please note, that under no circumstances should the Quooker be connected to
a descaling system that reduces the pH level of the water as this will void the
warranty.

It is recommended that you install the Quooker COMBI in the following order:
A. Drill hole
B. Fit tap
C. Fit inlet combination and mixing valve
D. Connect drain
E. Connect tank
.B. Bear in mind that the tank, the inlet combination, the mixing valve and the
socket must remain accessible for servicing.
Overview of Quooker COMBI installation

Drilling hole
• The tap should be located in one corner of the basin(s).
• .B. It must be possible to move the tap outlet freely up and down. When
the outlet is in its lowest position it projects approx. 25 cm below the sink.
Bear this in mind when fitting the inlet combination, sockets and the like.
• The radius of the outlet is a good 16 cm from the centre of the tap hole,
which determines how far the outlet extends into the basin.
1
A
1 Drilling hole
Allowing for the basin and mixer tap,
select a suitable location for the
Quooker tap (see examples). Using the
correct drill bit, drill a hole of 32-35 mm
in the sink.
Quooker tap
QMMixer tap

1 Tap through
sink
Push the tap through the hole in the
sink. Fit the rubber ring between the
tap and the worktop.
2 Tightening
screws
Set the tap to the desired position
and tighten the brass sink nut.
Then lock the tap by tightening the
screws in the sink nut.
Only if necessary!
A hex head bolt (key width 2 mm)
enables the tap to be twisted if
necessary. Loosen the hex head bolt.
Viewed from above turn it clockwise,
until you can turn it no further. Then
turn it a fraction anti-clockwise so that
the spout is free to move up and down.
Then retighten the hex head bolt.

Fitting tap
• .B. The total length of the boiling water hose is only 50 cm.
The tank must therefore be fitted close to the tap.
An extension hose is available but is not normally required.
B

Connecting water
• .B. The Quooker operates under water supply pressure and must always be
fitted with the inlet combination (supplied).
• The Quooker boiling water tap must be connected according to the locally
applicable regulations.
• The pressure relief valve on the inlet combination must be regularly lifted to
prevent blocking due to lime scale.
• Position the inlet combination at such a height that the difference in height
between it and the drain nipple is the maximum possible to allow the expan-
sion water to run off (see D4).
1 Fitting inlet
combination
Connect the inlet combination to the
T-piece with a copper tube (15 mm).
2 Fitting mixing
valve
Connect the mixing valve to the inlet
combination with the fibre ring
supplied. The mixing valve can be
fitted in any position, but allow for
the temperature setting knob.
3 Fitting warm
water hose
Screw the loose nipple (3/8”) of the
hose supplied onto the mixing valve.
The warm water hose can now be
connected to the mixer tap.
4 Temperature
setting
Turn the setting knob of the thermo-
static mixing valve to the temperature
you require (between 50°C and 65°C).

Connecting drain
The Quooker tank releases expansion water through the inlet combination
during heating, this water being fed into the grey funnel. The funnel can easily
be connected to the drain by means of the drain hose supplied. The drilling kit
also supplied can be used to make a connection to the drain pipe. Try to keep
the difference in height between the inlet combination and the connection to
the drain as large as possible to prevent a back-flow of drain water.

1 Drilling hole
Using the drill bit supplied, drill and
tap in one operation a threaded hole
in the grey P C drain pipe. Drill slowly
so that the P C does not melt.
Turn back anti-clockwise to preserve
the thread.
2 Screwing in
nipple
First try to screw the nipple into the
hole before fitting permanently with
P C glue.
3 Hose to drain
Slide the drain hose over the P C nipple
and blow through the hose to ensure
that the hose runs through.
4 Hose on
inlet combination
Connect the other side of the hose with
a suspended bend to the funnel of the
inlet combination. This will create a
water lock to prevent smells coming
from the drain pipe.
When the tank heats up water drips from
the inlet combination funnel.

On/off
Connecting tank
• .B. Do not switch on the Quooker until the tank is filled with water.
• The Quooker tank is supplied with a 3-core mains cord with earthed plug.
• The Quooker tap is fitted with an indicator lamp which indicates whether or
not the heating element is heating.
• If the mains cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer, his
agency or a qualified person to prevent a dangerous situation.

1 Connecting tank
Connect the long hoses to the mixing
valve. The couplings are flare fittings
so that no seal should be is inserted
between them.
2 Connecting tap
Connect the short hose, with the fibre
ring supplied, to the boiling-water tap.
3 Flushing tank
Open the Quooker tap. Now open the
main water valve and the stop valve of
the inlet combi-nation. Check for leaks.
Flush the Quooker through for a few
minutes until the water is clear. Black
water will flow out first. This is activated
carbon from the filter and is, incidentally,
completely harmless.
4 Electrical
connection
To connect the indicator lamp you insert
the plug into the hole provided. Connect
the tank to an earthed socket and do not
switch it on until the tank is filled with
water. The ‘Q’ on top of the tank is the
on/off switch After the Quooker has
heated up the entire content of boiling
water must be flushed through once
before use.
E

Disconnecting tank
• For servicing.
1 Switching off
Turn off the on/off switch by pressing
the ‘Q’ button on top of the cover and
remove the plug from the socket.
2 Allow to drain
Open the Quooker tap and do not
close it until the water is cold.
3 Isolating
Close the main water valve or the stop
valve of the inlet combination. Check
that the Quooker is depressurised by
opening the Quooker tap again.
No water should flow out now.
4 Disconnecting
Unscrew the hoses and pull the LED
cable out of the top cover. Drain the
unit into the sink.
