INSTALLATION
Warning!
Turn off the electrical and water supplies before proceeding with the
installation of the Mira Sprint. The electricity must be turned off at the mains and the
appropriate circuit fuse removed, if applicable.
Note!
An installation template is supplied to help you install the Mira Sprint.
1.
Decide on a suitable position for the Mira Sprint (minimum distance of 200 mm
from the ceiling to allow for cover fit and removal). The position of the Mira Sprint
and the shower fittings must provide a minimum gap of 25 mm between the
spill-over level of the shower tray/bath and the showerhead. This is to prevent
backsiphonage.
2.
Remove the three cover retaining screws.
3.
Remove the cover.
4.
Remove the service tunnel.
5.
Determine the direction of the inlet water supply: top (falling), bottom (rising),
or back inlet.
Note!
For back inlet, the connection to the inlet connector must still be made
from the top or bottom through a bend.
Warning!
To avoid damage to the case when soldered fittings are used,
pre-solder the pipework and fittings before connecting them to the inlet
connector assembly.
6.
Swivel the inlet connector assembly to suit. Remove the inlet blanking cap.
7.
Remove as appropriate, the thinned sections of the Mira Sprint case, to allow
the supplies to enter the product.
8. Thoroughly flush the mains-fed cold water supply pipe. The supply must
be clean and free from debris BEFORE connecting the Mira Sprint
. To
flush the pipework, turn on the water supply and drain a minimum of 10 litres
(2 gallons) of water into a bucket or catchment area. Turn off the water
supply.
9.
Put the installation template on the wall and mark through the positions of the
fixing holes. Make sure that the position of these holes do not come in line with
any buried cables or pipework. Make sure that sufficient electrical supply cable
is available for connection to the terminal block.
