PLUMBING CONNECTIONS
Plumbing to be carried out before wiring.
DO NOT use jointing compounds on any pipe
fittings for the installation.
DO NOT use soldered fittings near the unit as
heat can transfer along the pipework and can
damage components.
NOTE: An additional isolating valve (complying
with Water Regulations/Bylaws) MUST be fitted
in the mains water supply to the unit as an
independent means of isolating the water supply
should maintenance or servicing be necessary. If
this isolator is fitted in a loft space, the loft must
have a fixed access ladder and be boarded, with
appropriate lighting from the access point to the
isolator.
IMPORTANT
: The water inlet pipework to the
handwash MUST be flushed before the unit is
fitted. This is to remove any debris within the
inlet pipework.
Procedure
Turn off the water supply either at the mains
stop valve or the isolating stop valve.
Make sure the filter is inserted in the pipe before
connection. This helps to prevent ingress of
debris (
fig.6
).
Connect the mains water supply to the inlet of
the unit via 15mm pipe using the nut and olive
supplied (
fig.7
).
Check the backplate is square on the wall and
then tighten the two retaining screws which
hold it to the wall.
Turn on the mains water supply and check for
leaks in the pipework connection to the unit.
WARNING!
THE OUTLET OF THE UNIT ACTS AS A
VENT AND MUST NOT BE RESTRICTED.
ONLY THE SUPPLIED SWIVEL ARM
WITH THE SPRAYHEAD ASSEMBLY OR
TRIM FITTED SHOULD BE ATTACHED
TO THE UNITS OUTLET.
DO NOT CONNECT A TAP, HOSE SET, OR
ANY OTHER FITTING TO THE OUTLET.
