Description
Good evening,

I recently had an old electric water heater (Negarra brand) break down, which was integrated into a tall kitchen cabinet. The unique thing about this water heater is that the cold water inlet and hot water outlet are located halfway up where the new water heater needs to be installed.

I have already purchased a suitable replacement for the space available (electric water heater, Fleck, Duo 5, 30 liters, vertical or horizontal, energy class B). I have it installed, but I am unable to fix a small water leak (dripping) at the connection between the hoses and the wall pipes. I dare say that the connections are tightly secured, including Teflon tape on the threads, but perhaps the parts used are not of good quality and, as I mentioned, it is dripping slightly. I have included a small extension and an elbow in each connection. Perhaps a hose with a bent end should be used to avoid a connection issue.
