INSTALLATION
Preparing the mixer valve
Check the contents to make sure all parts are
present.
Before starting the mixer installation, make
sure all the openings on the valve are carefully
covered to stop ingress of any debris etc. while
routing the supply pipework.
The shower valve is suitable for exposed installation
onto solid wall, a stud partition wall, dry lined wall
or fixing to a laminate cubicle or panel.
Siting of the shower and accessories
Refer to
fig.6
for correct siting of the shower.
The mixer valve should be positioned as detailed,
with all controls within comfortable reach of the
user.
The accessories (showerhead, riser rail) can be
positioned above or to either side of the shower,
refer to
fig.6
.
Supply pipework
Complete the pipework to the shower area,
having decided on the position of the shower
and direction of pipe entry, for example rising,
falling or rear entry.
The hot and cold water pipes should not
be permanently attached to the wall within
one metre of the valve, before installation is
complete, to allow for final adjustment of the
valve position.
Rear entry supplies
Using a spirit level, mark the route of incoming
hot and cold water supply pipes at a distance
of 150mm (approximately) between centres
