SECTION 9

Commissioning the shower

1.  Make sure that the electrical supply has 

been isolated at the double pole isolating 
switch.

2.  Turn the top power selector knob to the 

‘Cold’

 setting 

(Solid Blue Symbol)

.

3.  Turn the bottom temperature control knob 

anti-clockwise to the full cold position.

4.  Ensuring the water supply is fully on at the 

mains stop cock and isolating service valve 

(if fitted)

, check that water is not leaking 

from the bottom of the case.

5.  Switch on the electrical supply at the 

double pole switch. The 

‘Power’

 neon 

indicator will light.

6.  Press the

 STOP/START

 button. Check 

that water flows freely from the shower 
within a few seconds. The water from the 
showerhead will be at full force and at a 
cool temperature.

7.  Rotate the bottom temperature control 

knob slowly clockwise fully. This will 
gradually reduce the flow with the water 
temperature remaining cool.

8.  Return the knob anti-clockwise to 

maximum flow.

9.  Now turn the top power selector knob to 

the 

‘Low’

 setting 

(Outline Red Symbol)

.

Allow a few seconds for the warmer 
temperature to reach the showerhead 
- this shows that the 

‘Low’

 power setting 

is operating correctly.

10. Now turn the top power selector knob 

to the 

‘High’

 setting 

(Solid Red Symbol)

The temperature at the showerhead will 
rise further - this shows that the full power 
setting is operating correctly.

IMPORTANT

 

To comply with National Water Council bylaws 
a double check valve must be fitted with all 
flexible shower accessories where it is possible 
that the shower head may come into contact 
with used water i.e. in the bath or shower tray.

SECTION 5

Plumbing connection

Plumbing the shower unit must precede 
wiring.

 

Turn off the water supply at the isolating stop 
tap.

Having determined the direction of the inlet 
water supply: 

Top

 (falling), 

Bottom

 (rising), 

or 

Back

 inlet. It is necessary to remove the 

appropriate plastic cross section from the back 
plate, before commencing with the installation 
(See diagrams 

Fig 1 & Fig 2

).

PLUMBING CONNECTION 

5

The back plate is fitted with removable inserts 
for 

Top

 (falling) and 

Bottom

 (rising) inlet mains 

water pipework to the shower unit.

We have incorporated into the bottom right-
hand side of the back plate an easy removable 
trim section, to allow easy access when 
connecting the water supply. 
(

Please Note! 

Remember to replace this trim 

section before refitting the cover).

Remove this plastic 

cross-section when using 

the ‘REAR’ or ‘TOP’ entry 

point for plumming

Remove this plastic 

cross-section when using 

the ‘BOTTOM’ entry point 

for plumming

Connect the mains water supply to the inlet 
of the shower unit using a 15mm copper or 
stainless pipe with a 15mm compression 
elbow or 15mmm push-fit elbow. 

Do not 

use excessive force when making the 
connection to the unit

.

IMPORTANT

 

Before turning on the water supply to the 
shower unit the water supply pipe should be 
flushed out to remove debris. This can be 
achieved by connecting the flexible hose to the 
15mm compression elbow and turning on the 
mains water supply long enough to clear the 
debris.

After flushing the pipework ensure that the 
shower unit is positioned squarely on the wall 
and tighten the screws. Tighten all plumbing 
connections and check the pipework for leaks.
