1. INTRODUCTION 

This booklet contains all the necessary fitting and 

operating instructions for your MX Thermostatic bar 

mixer valve.

Please read these instructions carefully. Read 

through the whole of this book before beginning your 

installation. 

The installation MUST be carried out by a suitably 

competent person after reading these instructions.

Care taken during the installation will provide a long 

and trouble free life from your shower. For the best 

performance within the specified running pressure 

range a minimum flow of 5 litres per minute should 

be available on both inlets.

This mixer valve is designed to operate on higher 

pressure systems up to a maximum of 5 bar running 

pressure. The mixer valve must not be subjected to 

water temperatures above 80˚C. This mixer valve is 

also suitable for thermal storage, unvented systems 

and pumped gravity systems.

IMPORTANT: Before installing with a gas 

instantaneous water heater, make sure it is capable 

of delivering hot water at a minimum switch-on flow 

rate of 3 litres per minute. 

At flow rates between 3 and 8 litres per minute, 

the appliance must be capable of raising the water 

temperature to a minimum of 52˚C.

The water temperature at the inlet to the mixer valve 

must remain relatively constant when flow rate 

adjustments are made (refer to the water heater 

operating manual to confirm compatibility with this 

mixer valve).
