DEFAULT PLUMBING SETTING

The shower unit is supplied for right 

hand installation. To plumb the unit on 

the left you must:

1.  Remove the bottom left hand side 

cover plate.

2.  Carefully pull the metal retaining clip 

out of the blanking end cap with a pair 

of pliers.

3. Slide off the blanking cap.

4.  Refit the blanking cap on to the inlet 

pipe on the right hand side of the unit.

5.  Re-insert the metal fixing clip 

ensuring it is pushed primly into place.

IMPORTANT: When leak testing the 

installation you must ensure there are 

no leaks from this area.

PLUMBING CONNECTIONS (CONT.)

The shower back plate incorporates into 

the lower right and left hand side of the 

back plate 

removable trim sections

 to 

allow easy access when deciding on and 

connecting to the water mains supply.

Remove the bottom right hand side cover 

plate giving access to the inlet spigot.

IMPORTANT: 

Before connecting the 

mains water supply to the shower, flush 

out the pipe work to remove all swarf 

and system debris. This is achieved by 

connecting a hose to the pipe work and 

turning on the mains water supply at the 

isolating stop tap long enough to clear the 

debris to waste.

Turn off the mains water supply at the 

isolating stop tap. 

Having decided on the direction of the 

water inlet supply: Top (falling) Bottom 

(rising) or Rear Inlet, it is necessary 

to remove the appropriate knock out 

(thinned out plastic) cross section from the 

back plate before commencing with the 

installation. 

The connection to the unit is made using 

a 15 mm copper, stainless or plastic pipe 

with a 15 mm compression elbow or 15 

mm push fit elbow.

IMPORTANT: 

Do not use excessive force 

when making the connection to the unit.
