WATER INLET ENTRY OPTIONS (also see fig.5)
The pipe work can enter the shower unit from 8 x different positions.
Bottom Left, Bottom Right, Top Left, Top Right, Rear Left, Rear Right, Side Left or Side Right.
The shower unit has come fitted with a compression elbow
(fig.5a)
.
This can be removed to provide an alternative Ø15mm straight shank connection point
(fig.7)
.
If desired, an alternative Ø15mm ‘compression elbow’
(fig.5b)
, a Ø15mm ‘push-on elbow’
(fig.5e)
or a Ø15mm ‘inline coupler’
(fig.5c/d)
can then be used.
Remove the compression elbow supplied by un-clipping the spring-clip
(fig.7)
, and use desired
fitting accordingly.
Top or Bottom Right positions
The shower unit has come fitted with a compression elbow set for a Bottom Right entry.
To set it to a Top Right position, swivel the elbow as shown
(fig.6)
ensuring it is rotated in an
anti-clockwise direction.
Top or Bottom Left positions
Pipe Entry can be converted to Left Top or Bottom by exchanging the fitted compression elbow and
the fitted end cap.
Remove the fitted end cap supplied by prising the spring-clip to position shown
(fig.8a)
, and pulling
the fitting away from the inlet shaft.
Then replace with desired fitting and push the spring-clip back into position
(fig.8b)
.
Ensure end cap is securely fitted to previous pipe entry.
Rear Entry positions
If Right Entry, swivel the fitted compression elbow to face a rear entry pipe connection.
If the pipe work entry is from the rear, ensure there is enough space left around the elbow for future
servicing or alternatively access is possible from the rear.
If Left Entry, exchange the fitted compression elbow with the fitted end cap
(fig.8a/b)
and connect
as Right Entry detail.
Alternatively treat as relevant Top Entry with an additional ‘Yorkshire’ elbow (soldered type) for
fitting on the rear channel of the backplate
(fig.5f)
Side Entry positions
If Right Entry, remove the compression elbow supplied
(fig.7)
, and use desired fitting accordingly
If Left Entry, exchange the fitted compression elbow with the fitted end cap
(fig.8a/b)
and connect
as Right Entry detail.
3.
It is permissible to use a WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme) approved sealant
sparingly, avoiding excess finding its way into the shower operating parts.
4.
With the isolating valve connected,
flush the pipe work through to remove any particles
etc
,
before making the final connection to the shower.
Water way blockages (particularly in handset and filter) will prevent the unit working properly.
Note: You may be charged for a service call if it is due to incorrect installation
