FOR ThE INSTALLER:
DEFAULT PLUMBING SETTING:
The shower unit is supplied for right
hand mains water connection. To plumb the unit from the left of the
shower back plate you must remove the blanking cap by sliding off the
metal retaining clip and refit to the right hand side of the unit ensuring the
metal retaining clip is refitted and pushed firmly into the groove. Whilst
leak testing the installation please ensure that there is NO water leaks
from this area. See Section 8: Plumbing Connections.
IMPORTANT:
To comply with water regulations, building regulations or
any specific local water company regulations and in accordance with BS
EN 806 a double check valve should be fitted where it is possible that the
shower head may come into contact with used water, for example in the
bath or a shower tray.
IMPORTANT:
Check that there are no hidden cables or pipes before
drilling holes for the wall plugs. Chose a flat piece of wall to avoid the
possibility of distorting the back plate and making the front cover a poor
fit. Exercise great care when using power tools near water. The use of a
residual current device (RDC) is recommended.
IMPORTANT:
Before connecting the water supply to the shower unit
the water supply pipe should be flushed out to remove all debris. After
flushing the pipe work make the connection to shower inlet and ensure
the shower is positioned squarely on the wall and all fixing screws are
tightened.
IT IS VERy IMPORTANT
to ensure that the terminal block screws are
FULLy
tightened and that no cable insulation is trapped under the
screws. The earth continuity conductor of the electrical installation must
be effectively bonded to earth on the fuse board.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure that the flow control knob is turned to FULL flow
and the commissioning instructions are followed before switching the unit
on. This will make sure that the unit is full of water when first activated.
IMPORTANT:
The shower unit MUST be full of water before the heat
settings are used.
