INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION COMPLIANCE: Galvin Engineering products must be installed in accordance with these
installation instructions and in accordance with AS/NZS 3500, the PCA and your local regulatory
requirements. Water and/or electrical supply conditions must also comply to the applicable national and/or
state standards. Failing to comply with these provisions shall void the product warranty and may affect
the performance of the product.
IMPORTANT: Whilst our product designs take into account a broad range of installation types and
surfaces, it is important that surfaces which fixtures are mounted to are flat and free from defect.
Additionally, ensure any protruding connecting thread is square to the wall so that the outlet sits flat against
the wall when installed, ensuring that there are no gaps between the wall and outlet. This is especially
important when installing product ranges that have been designed for correctional and health facilities,
where special attention is required to minimise ligature points and areas for concealment of contraband.
In addition to ensuring the products are fitted securely and in accordance with the following instructions,
consideration shall be given to the use of non-
pick mastics such as BASF Sonolastic “Ultra” to ensure a
high quality and safe installation.
1. Top Flange
Mark the height of the top flange centre point by
measuring vertically 2275mm above the floor.
Then measure approximately 150mm horizontally
to the left or right (depending on the position of
the shower recess) of the centre of the existing
supply fitting. Drill 2 holes Ø8 x 50mm deep,
38mm horizontally apart to suit the top flange.
2. Bottom Flange
Mark the
position of the bottom flange’s centre point
400mm below the top flange’s centre
point. Then
mark the two holes for mounting the bottom flange
similar to the manner as the top flange.
Note:
The bottom flange is mounted in a vertical
orientation.
Important:
the functionality of this product relies on
the accuracy of the vertical alignment between the top
and bottom flanges.
3. Mount the shower arm
Attach both the wall flanges using the plastic star
plugs and self-tapping screws supplied (these
fasteners may not be appropriate for all wall
materials. If this is the case, other fastening
systems will have to be sourced by the installer).
4. Attach the hose (not supplied)
When fitting the inlet hose, lay the arm against the
wall in the
preferred ‘resting’ position, then tighten the
hose. The arm will tend to return to this position when
not in use.
