8. SETTING UP THE MIXER VALVE
1. Your thermostatic concentric mixer valve is set up
in the factory so that a shower hose can be fitted.
This means that when the valve is fitted with the hot
water coming in from the left hand side, indicated
by the red spot, the water outlet is on the bottom of
the valve and has a ½” BSP threaded male outlet
(Fig 1).
2. Alternatively when fitting the overhead rail use
an allen key: Remove the ½” outlet (Fig A), and
then remove the plug (Fig B). Insert the plug in
the bottom of the outlet (Fig C) and then insert the
¾”
outlet where the plug was (Fig D). Ensure in all
instances the ‘O’ rings are on the components and
the components are tightened.
3. It is advisable prior to installatin to remove the
90 degree elbows (Fig 2), smear the ‘O’ ring with
petroleum jelly and re-fit using PTFE tape on the
thread.
4. A circular hole between 140mm and 168mm should
be enough to fit the mixer valve. The valve should be
fixed to the wall between 50mm and 70mm below
the finished surface of the shower .
5. The supply pipework can be plumbed from above
or below but must finish at the suitable connections
which should be at 155mm centers. Connect the
15mm pipework using standard compression nut
and olives (Fig 3).
NOTE: Make sure the mixer valve is kept in a clean
place to prevent rubbish etc, getting into the openings
while fitting the pipework.
You should measure the distance between the outlets
on the mixer valve you are fitting to determine th exact
distance.
