Bar Mixer Shower
13
IMPORTANT:
These bar mixer brackets
are designed to be mounted onto a solid
structure. If installing to a stud partition wall,
dry lined wall or similar, it is recommended
that the brackets are secured to the studs
or noggins. In this case, the pipework to the
brackets should pass through the support
studs or noggins via a suitably sized hole
(fig.11)
.
Decide upon the mounting position of the
brackets on the wall and mark the centres.
Check the mounting marks are level and that the
distance between them is equal to the distance
between the bar mixer inlet centres
(fig.12)
.
Mark the route of the pipework to the brackets.
Remove the plaster and brickwork (or
plasterboard) to the depth required and chase
out additional areas of the wall to allow for the
incoming pipework. Make sure that enough solid
structure of wall remains around the chasing to
accommodate the mounting plate wall plugs
and screws
(fig.13)
.
Complete the pipework to the bracket mounting
points. Leave an excess of pipe protruding out
of the wall of approximately 60mm as measured
from the face of the finished wall or tiles
(fig.14)
.
Flush the pipework through to remove
any debris. Check for leaks and remedy as
necessary.
Make good the wall and tiles. Make sure that the
pipes exiting the wall are free and can move in
and out of the wall by a minimum distance of
4mm
