COMMISSIONING
ENSURE THAT ALL SUPPLY PIPEWORK HAS BEEN
FLUSHED THROUGH PRIOR TO
COMMISSIONING.
Ensure that both hot and cold water supplies
are fully open and at (or near to) their design
temperature and pressures and are within the
requirements as stated.
Ensure the temperature knob is rotated fully
anti-clockwise (maximum temperature setting).
Ensure the showerhead is directed to waste.
Start the water flow by turning the flow control
anti-clockwise towards ‘on’.
Allow the shower to run at the maximum
temperature setting until the water temperature
has stabilised. Using the temperature control
knob, rotate until your desired maximum
showering temperature is reached.
The mixer valve is factory set to provide a
maximum outlet temperature of 40°C but this
should be checked on site to ensure the setting
has not been altered and also to ensure user
safety.
When the showering temperature is satisfactory,
remove the temperature control knob from the
spline and reposition it so the peg inside the
control engages against the stop on the
temperature control body
(fig.16)
.
Secure with the washer and fixing screw. Screw
the finishing cap marked ‘temp’ onto the
temperature control knob.
OPERATING THE SHOWER
To start the shower, rotate the on/off flow lever
fully to the left for maximum flow.
To stop the water flow, rotate the on/off flow
lever fully to the right.
To adjust the water temperature, rotate the
temperature control – clockwise for a cooler
shower or anti-clockwise for a hotter shower.
