Remove the two screws securing the
shower unit cover and remove the cover
complete with the control knobs.
Place the shower unit on the wall and mark
the location of the fixing screws through the
back plate.
Carefully drill the holes as marked using a
sharpe 5.5mm masonry drill.
Avoid connecting the shower unit, if
possible, were it will be affected by water
drawn off by other appliances, e.g. From
the mains feed to the W.C., This may
cause a drop in pressure too low for the
shower unit to work correctly.
An isolating valve must be fitted into the
water supply for servicing purposes.
Plan your own installation carefully. Check
on the nearest and most readily accessible
rising mains water supply, this may be
beneath the bath or in the loft, where it
feeds the cold water storage tank. Use
only the cold rising water main supply.
Do not connect the shower unit to the
down service from the tank.

GENERAL LAYOUT OF A
SHOWER INSTALLATION
Position your shower unit on the wall away
from the direct spray of the shower and at
about the same height as the shower head
position.
The shower unit should be positioned so
that the shower head cannot be immersed
in the bath or shower tray when hanging
down.

PLUMBING CONNECTION
Plumbing the shower unit must precede
wiring.
Turn off the water supply at the isolating
stop tap.
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).
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

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.

The cable size required is determined by
the kW rating of the shower and the
distance between the shower and the
consumer unit. The table below will help
you choose the correct cable for your
installation, but it will depend upon the
precise circumstances of the installation. If
you are in any doubt consult an electrician.

linked switch with a minimum contact gap
of 3mm. The switch must be readily
