Installing the Thermostatic Mixer
1.
The thermostatic mixer can be installed with
rear or rising supply inlets. Decide on the most
appropriate method for your installation, and if
necessary, loosen the grubscrews and rotate
the inlet elbows to suit.
Important!
Make sure that the elbows are
pushed fully onto the mixer before tightening
the grubscrews.
Caution!
Do not overtighten the grubscrews.
2.
Use the installation template
to mark the
positions of the holes for the backplate and
the pipe centres.
For rising supplies the pipe positions should
be set 39 mm from the centre of pipe to the
finished wall at 153 mm centres.
Note!
If you are retro-fitting your mixing valve
onto existing pipework, an
