Digital Mixing Valve (Pumped/Gravity)
1. Gravity fed hot water systems
Caution! Digital pumped/gravity valves must never be plumbed to mains pressure
systems. This includes mixed gravity fed and mains pressure e.g. gravity hot and
mains cold. Doing so will invalidate the warranty and potentially cause product and
property damage.
The shower control must be fed from a cold water storage cistern and a hot water cylinder
providing nominally equal pressures. Pipework layouts and connections must be such that
other draw-offs will not effect water supplies to the shower, shared supplies may lead to
airlocking or water starvation. It is therefore best practice to have independent hot and cold
supplies to the digital mixing valve pumped/gravity.
