Warning!
Mixers can operate normally with the following water supply system specifi cations:
• Operating pressure interval in water mains is 0.5-6.0 atm. (50-620 kPa).
• Pressure diff erence in hot and cold water supply systems can vary up to 10%. If it exceeds this
value, the pressure increase/decrease instruments installation is recommended.
• Maximum allowable hot water temperature: +80С°.
• Install 100-300 μ fi lters to prevent foreign objects (abrasive particles) from getting inside the
item.
Conditioning guidelines
Modern sanitary ware, kitchen and shower mixers are manufactured of a wide range
of materials depending on their operational features and design, demanded by the market.
In order to prevent damage to the product while performing its clean-up, consider certain
criteria.
Mixer conditioning agents
Cleaning agents are required for lime deposits removal.
Always observe the following rules during clean-up:
• Never use the agents, containing hydrochloric, formic or acetic acids since they can cause
major damage.
• For the same reason the use of phosphoric acid should be limited.
• Never mix diff erent cleaning agents.
• Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or accessories (e.g. some cleaning powders or
microfi ber sponges).
Mixer conditioning guidelines
Observe cleaning agent manufacturer’s guidelines and the following rules on their application:
• Use cleaning agents, if necessary, considering the application guidelines.
• Cleaning agent dosage and time of treatment should be chosen depending on the product
features (do not treat the mixers with cleaning agents longer than necessary).
• Treat mixers regularly to prevent calcifi cation.
• Spray the aerated cleaning agents on cloth or sponge; do not apply them directly on
sanitary ware, since aerosol drops can get into its holes and cause damage.
• Remove chemical agent residues with clean water immediately after treatment.
Important notes
Liquid soap, shampoo or shower gel residues also can cause damage. Carefully wash
sanitary ware with clean water to prevent it. The use of cleaning agents on damaged
areas enlarges the areas of damage.
Our company’s warranty does not cover damages, caused by improper handling.
