INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing a quality Mira product. To 
enjoy the full potential of your new product, please 
take time to read this guide thoroughly, having 
done so, keep it handy for future reference.
Mira ECO adjustable shower fi ttings are designed 
to give a satisfactory shower over a range 
of pressures. These fittings are suitable for 
pressures between 0.5 and 5.0 bar and are 
available in chrome or white fi nishes.

General

1.

  Make sure that the shower fi ttings are installed 

by a competent installer.

2.

  Installations must comply with Water Regulations 

(Bye-Laws, Scotland), and any other Local 
Regulations and Building Regulations in force 
at the time of installation.

3.

  Before installation carefully inspect the new 

fi xture for any signs of damage.

4.

 The shower fi ttings should be positioned at a 

convenient height for all the family. Position 
the fi ttings to spray across rather then towards 
the opening of the cubicle and also away from 
the shower control. Avoid layouts where the 
shower hose will be sharply kinked. This may 
reduce the life of the hose.

5.

  A hose retaining ring is supplied to prevent 

the showerhead from dropping below the spill 
over level of the bath or shower, which could 
lead to contamination from backsiphonage. 
The supplied hose retaining ring should meet 
the great majority of user requirements for 
shower installations with fl exible outlet fi ttings. 
However, there will be occasions when the 
hose retaining ring will not provide a suitable 
solution. In these instances an 

outlet

 double 

check valve, e.g. the Mira DCV-H, 

must

 be 

fi tted. The inclusion of the Mira DCV-H will 
increase the required supply pressure typically 
by 0.1 bar.

6. 

Special consideration should be given to the 
fi xing arrangements when installing onto a 
dry lined, stud partition, shower cubicle or 
laminated panel wall structures. Installers may 
wish to obtain alternative proprietary cavity 
fi xings, or choose other options, however, 
these methods of fi xing are beyond the scope 
of this guide.

If you experience any difficulty with the 
installation or operation of your new shower 
fi ttings, please refer to 

‘Fault Diagnosis’

before contacting Kohler Mira Ltd. Our contact 
details can be found on the back cover of 
this guide.
