a) General conditions
The outlet of the shower MuST nOT be
connected to anything other than the
showerhead supplied.
DO nOT
use jointing compounds on any pipe
fittings for the installation.
Suitable ½” BSP to 22 mm or 15 mm
compression fittings (not supplied) must be
used for connecting to the water supplies.
DO nOT solder fittings near the mixer unit
as heat can transfer along the pipework and
damage components.
When connecting the pipework, avoid using
tight 90° elbows. Swept or formed bends will
give the best performance.
½” BSP straight or elbow male thread couplers
must be fitted to the inlet ports for either
rising, rear or falling hot and cold water
supplies.
A ½” BSP straight coupler needs to be fitted to
the valve outlet.
note:
These couplers are nOT supplied.
Screw the couplers into the inlets and the
outlet of the valve. The COuPLeRS MuST Be
TIGhTeneD AGAInST The vALve BODy. The
fittings will require PTFe tape or other means
of sealing.
Before starting, make sure the available depth
of the recess or cavity is at least 65 mm when
measured from the finished surface
(fig.7)
.
The allowance for varying thickness of tiles
up to 10 mm is accommodated by a limited
degree by the cover plate.
b) Installation in a solid wall
Decide on the shower position. The building-in
depth should be at least 65 mm deep from the
finished wall surface.
As a guide for the size of hole, it should be
large enough to accept the valve complete
with the inlet and outlet fittings and also allow
access for connection to the pipework
