Electric shower
GENERAL ADVICE TO USERS
The following points will help you understand
how the shower operates:
a.
The electric heating elements operate at a
constant rate at your chosen power setting.
It is the rate of the water passing through
the heater can which determines the water
temperature. (The slower the flow, the hotter
the water becomes; the faster the flow, the
cooler the water).
b.
During winter, the mains water supply will be
cooler than in the summer. The flow rate will
vary between seasons,thermostatic control
still maintains the desired temperature, even
when flow decreases/increase.
c.
The thermostatic valve maintains showering
temperature during mains water pressure
changes. If changes in shower temperature
are experienced during normal use, it will
most likely be caused by the water pressure
falling below the minimum level. The drop in
pressure may be due to water being drawn
off at other points in the house whilst the
shower is in use. If pressure drops appreciably
below the minimum, the heating elements
will automatically cut out.
NOTE:
If ever the water becomes too hot and
you cannot obtain cooler water, first check
that the sprayplate in the shower head has
not become blocked.
DO NOT
place items such as soap or shampoo
bottles on top of the unit. Liquid could seep
through the joint between the cover and
backplate.
ADVISORY - CLEANING
It is recommended that all products
are cleaned using warm, soapy water.
DO NOT
use abrasive or aggressive
chemical cleaning products as this may
affect the product surface finish and
invalidate your guarantee.
COMISSIONING ADVICE
When first installed the unit will be empty.
It is essential the unit should contain water
before the elements are switched on. It is
vital that the commissioning procedure
is followed. Failure to carry out this
operation will result in damage to the unit
and will invalidate the guarantee.
To check the product suitability for commercial and multiple installations, please contact Triton’s
specification advisory service before installation.
