Reversed supplies
The Aquatique Thermo is designed for conventional supplies with HOT on the Left and COLD on the Right as viewed from the
front. However, the Aquatique Thermo can be adapted for use with reversed supplies, adopting the following procedure.
1 Set the temperature lever to the vertical position and remove the temperature screws and temperature lever/on/off assembly.
2 Remove the elbow connections and loosen the locking screw in the bottom of the valve base plate. Rotate the valve body
180˚ and tighten the locking screw in the valve base plate.
3 Unscrew and remove outlet connector using a 12mm hexagonal key or radiator key and remove the outlet plug using a snug
fitting screwdriver taking care to avoid any damage to the plated surfaces.
4 Reposition and refit the outlet and outlet plug as required.
5 Refit the elbow connections.
6 Replace the temperature lever/on/off assembly ensuring the temperature lever is in the vertical position. Secure the assembly to
the valve body with the four screws, hand tight only.
Temperature Limiting Device
For additional safety, for example when the very young or elderly people will be using the shower, the Aquatique Thermo incor-
porates a temperature limiting device enabling you to set minimum and maximum temperature adjustment if required.
Temperature adjustment is limited by inserting the limiting pins provided into the small holes in the face of the cartridge.
The pins are fitted as follows:
1 Ensure the temperature lever is set to the vertical position.
2 Remove the four temperature control lever fixing screws and detach the lever and on/off control.
3 Replace two of the screws in the top and bottom threaded holes of the temperature ring.
4 To set the MAXIMUM temperature, insert a limit pin into the mid-position hole in the upper set of holes.
5 Using the two screws in the cartridge face as a lever, turn the temperature control ring clockwise until a stop is reached.
6 Temporarily replace the on/off control and temperature control lever and turn the valve on to check the temperature is at the
desired maximum temperature. If not, turn the valve off, re-position the pin in a higher hole and turn on the valve to
check the temperature is sufficient. Repeat the procedure as necessary.
7 If a minimum temperature is required, use the lower set of holes in the cartridge face and repeat the above procedure. If no
minimum temperature is required, do not position any pins in the lower set of holes
8 Snap off the pins by levering outwards. Turn the temperature control ring to the vertical position and remove the two fixings
screws. Replace the temperature control lever and on/off control assembly in its original position and fix with the four tempera-
ture screws, hand tight only.
