SITING OF THE SHOWER
IMPORTANT:
If installing onto a tiled wall
always mount the unit on the surface of the
tiles. NEVER tile up to the unit.
Refer to
fig.5
for correct siting of the shower.
This product is splashproof rated and is
approved for use in shower cubicles and over
baths. However, do not install the unit in a
position where the sprayhead will consistently
direct water over it.
The shower unit MUST be positioned vertically.
Allow enough room between the ceiling and
the shower to access the cover top screws.
Pressure relief safety device
A pressure relief device (PRD) is designed into
the shower unit which complies with European
standards. The PRD provides a level of
appliance protection should an excessive build
up of pressure occur within the shower.
DO NOT operate the shower with a damaged
or kinked shower hose, or a blocked sprayhead
which can cause the PRD to operate.
When commissioning, the sprayhead must be
removed from the flexible hose. Failure to
follow this procedure may also result in causing
the PRD to operate.
Make sure the shower is positioned over a bath
or shower tray because if the PRD operates, then
water will eject from the bottom of the unit.
Should this happen, turn off the electricity and
water supplies to the shower at the isolating
switch and stopvalve. Contact Customer Service
for advice on replacing the PRD.
The PRD is situated behind the outlet pipe
(fig.6)
. To access the PRD, FIRST SWITCH OFF
THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY, unscrew the hose
then remove the cover. Remove the two screws
holding the outlet pipe to the base of the can.
Carefully pull away from the can and then
unscrew the two screws holding the PRD to the
outlet pipe.
CAUTION:
DO NOT attempt to replace the
PRD unless competent to do so.
Note:
Before replacing the cover, it is strongly
advised to prime the unit (see
‘commissioning’
).
