Push button mixer shower

COMMISSIONING

Start the water flow by rotating the flow control 

(fig.20)

.

Make sure that the hot and cold water supplies 
are fully open and at (or near to) their design 
temperature and pressures, and are within the 
requirements stated in the site requirements.
Make sure the temperature control is at the 
maximum temperature setting. Allow the mixer 
shower to run at this maximum temperature 
setting until the water temperature has stabilised. 
Rotate the temperature control until your desired 
showering temperature is reached.

IMPORTANT

The temperature adjustment range must be 
checked to guarantee user safety.
Rotate the temperature control checking 
the minimum and maximum showering 
temperatatures; ADJUST THE MAXIMUM 
TEMPERATURE STOP SETTING on page 14 if 
required.
The following is recommended for domestic 
installations but must be carried out for 
commercial installation: Check the thermal shut 
off facility of the mixer shower by performing a 
thermal shut off test.
Shut off the cold supply. 
The flow from the mixer shower should stop 
immediately or reduce to a trickle in which case 
the water temperature should be less than 43°C.
In either case there is no risk of scalding.
If, however, the temperature is above 43°C then 
it is likely there is contamination in the mixer 
shower stopping it from shutting off the hot 
supply. In this case refer to the maintenance 
section or contact Triton Customer Experience.
