Summary:An inlet transfer assembly comprises an intermediate pipe 25 extending between a first connector fitting 21 and a second connector fitting 23. The first connector fitting is for fitment to a water supply and the second connector fitting is for fitment to an appliance (e.g. instantaneous water heater 1 such as an electric shower). The intermediate pipe is rotatably connected to at least one of (ideally both) the first and second connector fittings and extends along a direction having a radial component away from an axis 'D' extending through the second connector fitting. Rotatable connection of the intermediate pipe to both the connector fittings facilitates installation of the appliance to multiple configurations of water supply since many orientations of water supply pipe can be accommodated by the assembly. The intermediate pipe may be freely rotatable about the axis or bounded within a 300° arc. Ideally the first connector fitting is rotatable about an axis 'E' perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the intermediate pipe. The first connector fitting may be freely rotatable or bounded within a 300° arc.
