Plumbing Connections
Note - The manufacturer’s rigorous quality systems may require operating the shower with water
at the factory. Any water will be removed where possible, however there may be a small amount of
water residue left in the shower. Sealing caps are used to prevent any excess water from entering
and damaging the unit.
The plumbing installation must comply with Water Fitting Regulations, Building Regulations and
should be in accordance with BS 6700. Plumbing work must be completed before any electrical
connections are made.
Make sure there is a cold water feed near to the installation with a local service isolation valve.
Before assembly, fl ush the water supply pipes thoroughly to remove debris in the pipework (allow
the water to run with the main stopcock open for about 3 mins), to prevent debris and dirt particles
from blocking the fi lter which might affect the function of the shower.
DO NOT solder pipes or fittings within 110mm of the shower appliance.
DO NOT fit any form of outlet flow control to the water heater.
DO NOT use excessive force when making connections to the water supply inlet, the flexible hose
or the spray head.
