Operation
Turning the operating handle will switch the water flow between the various outlet options (up to four)
Two blanking caps are supplied to allow the installer to cap off any ports that are not required.
This diverter valve is designed to operate only one shower accessory at a time, and they are not
designed for a “split” water flow between ports. There is no on/off built into this diverter valve.
Installation
NB There is some in-wall adjustment on this Diverter valve to assist with installation. This needs to be
planned before installation commences. See key dimensions for guidance.
1.
Remove the collar and guide sleeve from the diverter body, and leave to one side in a safe place.
2. Determine the fixing position and make a suitable recess in the wall to house the diverter body.
NB this space should leave enough access to be able to service the diverter body and all its connection
points after the concealing plate is removed.
3.
Secure the diverter body in position to a suitable fixing point, using the fixing lugs that are
cast into the diverter body (fixings not supplied).
4. Now the diverter body is securely mounted in the wall recess, make sure the pipe work is
thoroughly flushed through to remove any debris from the system before connecting the water
supplies to the diverter body. NB Failure to do this could invalidate the guarantee.
NB The mixed water must flow through the diverter valve as indicated by the flow directional arrow.
The diverter will not operate correctly if this step is not followed.
5.
The plumbing connections should then be made to the inlet & outlets as required.
At this point the installer can cap off any ports that won't be used (2 blanking caps are supplied
with the fitting).
6.
Turn on the water supplies and check for leaks.
7.
The diverter valve can now be commissioned.
8. Re-fit the collar and guide sleeve to the diverter valve.
9. Push the concealing plate over the collar, applying a small bead of silicone behind the
concealing plate to create a water tight seal so that water cannot ingress into the wall cavity.
10. Fit the operating handle to the diverter spindle.
11. Your diverter valve is now ready for use.
