BUILDING-IN DEPTH
The allowance for varying thicknesses of tiles
up to 10mm is accommodated by the front
trimplate
(fig.9)
. The maximum tolerance
between the trimplate and mixer body is 20mm.
Note:
the front of the trimplate and the front
edge of the body must have a minimum of
5mm clearance to allow the handle to operate
correctly.
The following are typical thicknesses and are
given as a guide only:

10mm
Adhesive

Plasterboard 9.5

Maximum tile thickness to be 10mm.
When installing into a stud partition or other
hollow wall structure, the installer may wish to
consider building rear supports or other options
for fitting the unit. Such options are beyond the
scope of this guide.
Make sure the available building-in depth is at
least 55mm measured from the face of the wall.
SOLID WALL, HOLLOW WALL
AND PANEL MOUNTING
The building-in depth for the valve is typically
45mm from plaster finish
(fig.10)
but this is
dependant upon tile and adhesive thicknesses.
•
Decide upon the shower position and
determine whether the hot and cold water
supplies will enter from the top (falling),
bottom (rising) or rear.
•
Mark the hole outline position onto the
wall. Remove the plaster and brickwork (or
plasterboard) to the depth required and
chase out any additional areas of wall to
allow for incoming pipework and access to
the mixer and the outlet pipework to the
bulkhead.
