The following points will help you have a greater understanding of how your shower works:
The heating elements operate at a constant rate, dependent on your chosen power setting.
The water temperature is achieved by adjusting the rate of water flow.
The higher the water flow the lower the temperature and vice versa.
The temperature of the water supplied from the mains can vary considerably throughout the year
from 5 to 20°C.
This means that in the winter, flow rate will be less than in the summer to achieve the same outlet
temperature.
In summer the
‘ECO’
power setting may give adequate hot water.
Your shower is
designed to stabilise temperature
changes caused by water pressure
fluctuations.
These can result from toilets being flushed or taps being turned on and off.
When this happens your showering temperature will be held within a controlled band, provided
that the minimum pressure required by the shower is maintained (see ‘plumbing’ page.5).
If the water pressure falls below the minimum pressure required, it is likely that the pressure
switch will turn off the power to the heating elements, resulting in a cold shower.
WARNING:
ALL WIRING AND INSTALLATION MUST BE SUPERVISED BY A SUITABLY
