2. TOOLS REQUIRED (NOT SUPPLIED)

1. INTRODUCTION 

This booklet contains all the necessary fitting and 

operating instructions for your MX Thermostatic bar 

mixer shower.

Please read these instructions carefully. Read 

through the whole of this book before beginning your 

installation. 

The shower installation MUST be carried out by a 

suitably competent person in the sequence of this 

instruction book, after reading the instructions.

Care taken during the installation will provide a long 

and trouble free life from your shower. For the best 

performance within the specified running pressure 

range a minimum flow of 5 litres per minute should 

be available on both inlets.

This mixer valve is designed to deliver higher water 

flow rates on Low pressure systems with a minimum 

running pressure of 0.1 bar. The mixer valve is also 

suitable for thermal storage, unvented systems, 

pumped gravity systems and high pressure systems 

up to 5 bar running pressure. The mixer valve must 

not be subjected to water temperatures above 80˚C. 

IMPORTANT: Before installing with a gas 

instantaneous water heater, make sure it is capable 

of delivering hot water at a minimum switch-on flow 

rate of 3 litres per minute. 

At flow rates between 3 and 8 litres per minute, 

the appliance must be capable of raising the water 

temperature to a minimum of 52˚C.

The water temperature at the inlet to the mixer valve 

must remain relatively constant when flow rate 

adjustments are made (refer to the water heater 

operating manual to confirm compatibility with this 

mixer valve).
