Check the ‘o’ rings (L) for damage (ie. cuts or tears). Remove the ‘o’ rings before soaking the cartridge 
in descaling fluid. Soak the cartridge according to the instructions on the descaling fluid packaging. Rinse 
under cold water before fitting (refer to the ‘installing the thermostatic cartridge’ section to install).

INSTALLING THERMOSTATIC CARTRIDGE

Important note:

For an approximately 38 °C setting, align the 
‘key setting points’ shown. Once assembled, 
reset the safe temperature by following 
the setting instruction in the ‘setting safe 
temperature’ section. Check the water 
temperature with a thermometer. 

Once the ‘key setting points’ have been 
aligned and ‘o’ rings (L) fitted, apply a smear of 
silicon grease to the ‘o’ rings and firmly push 
the thermostatic cartridge (LB2750) into the 
valve body with the groove pointing upwards.

Insert the anti-rotation washer (K) so it 
locates to the ‘flats’ on the cartridge and fits 
into the ‘notch’ cut into the valve body.

Screw in locking nut (J) and fully tighten using a 
32mm a/f spanner to secure the thermostatic 
cartridge in place.
