COMMISSIONING

Maximum Temperature Setting

Before using the shower the maximum temperature 

must be checked to make sure that it is at a safe 

level. It has been preset to approximately 41°C at 

the factory but due to variations in site conditions 

the maximum temperature may need adjustment. 

Note!

 Make sure that the hot water temperature 

is at least 55°C and that there is sufficient supply. 

For Type 2 installations the maximum blend 

temperature is determined by the application, 

refer to he TMV2 Requirements Manual.

1. 

Turn on the mixer to the maximum temperature 

and maximum flow (i.e. fully anticlockwise) and 

allow the temperature to stabilise.

  If the temperature is too hot or too cold adjust 

as follows:

5.

  Insert the 2.5 mm hexagon key into the centre 

of the spindle and engage with the recessed 

temperature adjusting screw.

6. 

Rotate the hexagon key until the required 

maximum temperature is obtained at the 

shower. Rotate anticlockwise to increase the 

temperature, or clockwise to decrease the 

temperature (¼ turn = approximately 1°C).

7.

  Once the desired maximum blend temperature 

has been achieved turn off the mixer by 

rotating the hub fully clockwise.

 

Note! 

Do not remove the

 

hub.

8.

  Refit the hub retaining screw.

9. 

Refit the control knob with the grubscrew at 

the bottom and retighten the grubscrew.

10. 

Refit the concealing cap.

11. 

Check that the shower temperature is correct.
