HOW TO USE YOUR 

POWERSTREAM 

 

 

DO NOT USE THE UNIT IF YOU THINK IT MAY BE FROZEN, AS THIS COULD 
RESULT IN SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE UNIT. WAIT UNTIL YOU ARE SURE 
THAT IT HAS COMPLETELY THAWED OUT BEFORE YOU SWITCH ON. 
 

Basin 

 

Check that the power is switched on at the mains isolator switch.

 

 

Turn on the hot water tap 

FULLY 

at all times. If you do not turn the tap on fully, you will 

find that the temperature of the water will vary. The hot water temperature will have been 

set using the              service valve (diagram 6).

 

 

If the unit has been used recently, run the water through for a few seconds to let the 

temperature stabilize, we advise you DO NOT touch the water flow during this time. 

  

 

           YOU MAY INITIALLY GET A SHORT BURST OF VERY HOT WATER

 

FROM THE UNIT IMMEDIATELY UPON OPENING THE TAP. 

 

If a second tap connected to the unit is also turned on, the hot water will be shared between the 

two and so the flow will drop.

 

 

Shower 

 

Check that the power is switched on at the mains local isolator switch.

 

 

Turn on the hot (or 

“flow”)

 tap 

FULLY 

(diagram 9).

 

 

If the unit has been used recently, run the water through for a few seconds to let the 

temperature stabilize, we advise you DO NOT enter the water flow during this time. 

 

 

  

YOU MAY INITIALLY GET A SHORT BURST OF VERY HOT WATER

 

FROM THE UNIT IMMEDIATELY UPON OPENING THE TAP. 

 

Turn on the cold (or 

“temperature”)

 tap, if necessary, to adjust the temperature of the water.

 

 

Make sure that no other outlets connected to the unit are used whilst you are in the shower, or 

the water flow will drop suddenly.

 

 

It is important to clean the shower spray plate regularly.

 

 

In order for the Powerstream to function correctly, only 

the “Redring Mixer Kit” 

can be 

used.  The kit, Cat No. 300001357, comes complete with full accessories including a 3 

position multi-function shower handset.
