Cleaning

It is recommended that all products are cleaned 
using warm, soapy water.

Do not use abrasive or aggressive chemical 
cleaning products as this may affect the product 
surface finish and invalidate your guarantee.

Cleaning the Filters 

(fig.A)

It is advised that this should be carried out by a 

qualified person:

•  Turn off the water supplies before starting.

•  To gain access to the filters remove the unit 

from the inlet fittings.

•  Remove the filter housing and disassemble. 

•  Wash the filters thoroughly under running 

water, use a suitable brush to remove all debris.  

•  Reassemble and fit in reverse order.

WARNING!

DO NOT use powerful abrasive or  

solvent cleaning fluids when cleaning the 

shower as they may damage the fittings.

MAINTENANCE

Maintenance of the unit is required to give 
continued performance after installation and that 
it continues to provide scald prevention.

NOTE: 

A thermostatic mixing valve in need of 

maintenance can be undetectable in normal 
use and only becomes apparent when a 
disruption occurs in the hot or cold water 
supply temperatures or pressures.

It is a requirement that all 

TYPE 3

 approved 

valves shall be verified against the original set 
temperature results 

once every 12 months

.

 

a)  Initially check the filters for debris

 

once every 

three months and clean if necessary. 

b)  Perform a thermal shut off test every 

three months, and check the maximum 
temperature setting. See the Commissioning 
section for the details of this test and 
readjustment of the maximum temperature 
setting if required.

c)  If the maximum water temperature varies 

by more than 2°C from the commissioned 
setting then carry out the following checks

 

•  Check the isolating valves are fully open. 

 

•  Check the internal surface for scaling. 

If the body requires descaling then it should be 
removed from the pipework to carry this work 
out - all rubber parts 

MUST

 be removed before 

descaling.

 

• Check the function of the non-return valves.

The non-return valves (NRVs) prevent cross-flow 
between hot and cold supplies under unequal 
pressure conditions. They are designed for long 
life with no maintenance.

NOTE:

 The NRV’s will only operate in one 

direction - water should be able to flow into the 
unit from the inlets, but 

NOT

 back out through 

the inlets.

If these checks do not highlight the reason 
for the temperature variation, then internal 
components will require replacement - please see 
the Spare Parts list.

Disinfection

Where chlorine is used for the disinfection 
of water systems all relevant guidelines and 
approved codes of practice must be strictly 
followed. Failure to comply with the relevant 
guidelines and approved codes of practice may 
invalidate your guarantee.
