General Cleaning
Your fitting has a high quality finish and
should be treated with care to preserve
the visible surfaces. All surfaces will
wear if not cleaned correctly, the only
safe way to clean your product is to
wipe with a soft damp cloth. Stains can
be removed using washing up liquid.
All bath cleaning powders and liquids
will damage the surface of your fitting,
even the non-scratch cleaners.
Note: Never use abrasive detergents
or disinfectants or those containing
alcohol, hydrochloric acid or
phosphoric acid.
Cartridge Maintenance
We advise that the shower valve is
regularly serviced in hard water areas
to maintain the flow of water.
Isolate both hot and cold water supplies
to the shower valve by either:
•Turning the water supply off at
the mains stopcock or
•Turning off the isolation valves to
the shower valve.
1. Remove the temperature handle
and plastic stop.
Important: Take note of the
position of the plastic stop and handle
- They must be refitted in the same
position
.
2. Unscrew the cartridge anti-
clockwise and remove from the
valve body.
3. Remove the piston and thermostat
assembly and place into a bowl.
Carefully add hot water (just off the
boil) and vinegar to de-scale. Leave
in the solution until the water has
cooled and rinse with clean water.
4.Grease the seals with a silicon grease
supplied by Bristan (part number: SP-
495- 0002) and carefully refit.
5.Refit the temperature stop and
handle. Reset the maximum
temperature.
