Make good the wall and complete the tiling.
• This product is supplied with a tiling shroud
to prevent damage to the product.
• If the tiles are accurately cut, then the
faceplate will seal around the hole in the
tiles, and the valve unit will be able to be
removed from the wall without the need to
break any tiles.
Make sure the grout lines around the valve are
flush with the tiles in order to provide a smooth
sealing surface for the coverplate.
