Flushing
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before operating the product, it is strongly recommended to flush the pipe work to remove any residues
or debris remaining after installation. A purge kit is available for this purpose.
(See 15)
The purging kit also provides the facility to obtain water supply temperatures at the inlets
Safety Note: Care should be taken when carrying out the following procedure to avoid contact with hot
water and hot surfaces. We recommend the use of protective hand wear.
The following procedure should be used to flush out the pipework:
1.
Remove the strainer from the inlet with a 5mm hexagon key to gain access to the purging port.
(
See 12.12
)
2.
Screw the purging kit into the inlet port fully and then unscrew until the small indent on the
purging kit towards the front of the inlet as shown.
3.
Open the isolating valve and allow water to discharge into a vessel until the water flows clean
Suitable tubing can be push fitted onto the purging kits if required.
4.
Repeat on the both sides of the mixer so that the hot and cold supplies are both flushed
Once the system has been flushed, remove the purging kits and refit the strainers using a 5mm Allen
key.
