Installation Guide.
The
Oakmere
is supplied with the following components:-
Bath with Left or Right Hand Door Opening – SHOWN BELOW AS LHS DOOR OPENING
Front Panel & optional End Panel
Twin Waste kit with Shallow Traps
2 x Wall fixing brackets
Other Items supplied required with contract
Thermostatic Valve TMV22( high flow rate) -MUST BE INSTALLED IN ALL CASES
Possible additional items:
Pump and flow switch. (Refer to Installation notes)
Bath/shower mixer/taps. (Refer to Installation notes.)
IMPORTANT NOTES
The bath is supplied with 4 adjustable feet fitted & has a water capacity of 200 litres (unoccupied)
which may require pump assisted taps with a flow rate of 17 litres/min minimum. Use only 22mm
pipe leads to enhance flow rate. Bath is filled only when user has entered and shut door,
consequently taps must be thermostatically controlled.
Installation is similar as for a standard bath except that twin wastes are supplied to increase
drainage rate & to ensure the bath can be drained if one waste fails. The bath should be installed
rigidly to ensure there will be no movement or sagging of the floor when bath is used.
Consideration should be given to lowering the wastes below the floor level to keep the step
threshold to a minimum to assist customer’s ability to step into the bath.
If fitting in an alcove ensure the bath freely goes into position (as sideways pressure can distort
the doorway).
The
Oakmere
is manufactured in glass fibre. When handling, proceed with care and
caution, in particular the bath edges are more brittle than in acrylic baths.
For ease of manoeuvrability we recommend the door be removed after unpacking
the bath. The door is held in place with 'lift-off' hinges. Open the door then lift
from bath.
