Shepherds Crook
Where a Shepherds Crook (Shower Pole) has been supplied and installed on the bath
it is important to carry out the following monthly check:
VISUAL
1/ Check that the base plate of the pole is flat to the rim of the bath.
2/ The Shower Pole should not be bent or out of vertical.
3/ The Shower handset should be in its holder.
PHYSICAL
4/ Grasp the base plate and ensure it will not rotate. (Note the Shower pole can rotate as it is
screwed into place so please ensure it is fully hand screwed into place.)
4/ Grasp the pole and ensure it will not ‘rock’
Six Monthly Checks
In addition to the monthly checks the following should be carried out.
Visually inspect the bath all over ensuring there are no exposed wires or pipes. Panels
should all be fitted tightly and screws and fixings in place.
Load the bath to its SWL. Operate the bath through its full sequence.
Your
maintenance company should be able to carry out this LOLER test but if not please
contact us so we can arrange.
Ensure that the tap and waste fittings are all working correctly and that the seat
fixings are all in good order.
Check condition and operation of the handset control.
Ensure your bath is serviced regularly. Please ask for details of the Gainsborough
Bathrooms Ltd. Service and Maintenance Agreement.
