To fit the flow regulator
1. Unscrew the hot inlet nut and remove the inlet pipe, O ring seal, inlet filter, and flow
regulator housing.
2. Fit the flow regulator into the flow regulator housing.
3. Refit the flow regulator housing, Inlet filter, O ring seal, and inlet pipe, secure with the hot
inlet nut. Note: the hot inlet nut only needs to be hand tightened.
With instantaneous water heater appliances, when the warm-up function is finished the user
may experience a brief temperature variation upon restart. This is because combination
boilers will turn off after the warm-up process has been completed, so when restarted, the
processing unit will
release a cold slug of water followed by a hot slug as the hot water
supply stabilises.

High-Pressure Instantaneous Hot Water System Installation Continued
On-demand gas heaters are not always able to supply an adequate flow rate of hot
water, particularly in winter. Triton recommends fitting a flow regulator (supplied
with the shower) into the hot inlet of the Triton Xerophyte Mixer Unit before
installation. Refer to the table for details (see Fig 2).
