Electric shower
9
If installing a feed pipe from the back or bottom,
the centre of the inlet valve to the wall surface is
20mm
(fig.9)
.
Note:
If entry is from the back, the nut of the
compression fitting will be partially behind the
surface of the wall. This area MUST be left clear
when plastering over the pipework in order to
make the nut accessible for future adjustments.
After choosing the site for the shower, use the
backplate as a template and mark the two fixing
holes
(fig.10)
.
Drill and plug the wall.
(An appropriate drill bit should be used. If the wall
is plasterboard or a soft building block, appropriate
wall plugs should be fitted).
Screw the top fixing screw into position leaving
the base of the screw head protruding 6mm out
from the wall.
Hook the backplate over the bottom screw and
fit the top fixing screw into position.
DO NOT fully tighten the screws at this stage,
as the fixing holes are elongated to allow for
out of square adjustment after the plumbing
connections have been completed.
