Electric shower
Turn off water supply either at the mains
stopvalve or the isolating stopvalve.
Temporarily connect the mains water supply to
the inlet of the shower using a 15mm x 15mm
compression fitting.
Using the backplate as a template, making sure
it is level, mark the fixing holes
(fig.10)
.
Remove the unit from the wall. Drill and plug
the wall. An appropriate drill bit should be used.
If the wall is plasterboard or a soft building
block, appropriate wall plugs should be fitted.
Screw the top fixing screw into position, leaving
the base of the screw head protruding 6mm
out from the wall.
Hook the backplate over the screw and fit the
bottom fixing screws into position.
DO NOT
fully tighten the screws at this stage. The
holes are elongated to allow for out of square
adjustment after the plumbing connection has
been completed.
Connect the mains water supply to the inlet.
DO NOT
use excessive force when making the
connection.
Make sure the backplate is square on the wall
and tighten the remaining screws.
Turn on the mains water supply and check for
leaks in the pipework connection.
NOTE:
At this stage no water can flow
through the unit.
IMPORTANT:
A suitable sealant should always
be used to seal around the incoming pipework
to prevent water entering the wall. The PRD
exit hole
(fig.11)
must have tile or wall
support behind; in the event of PRD operation
the water escapes through backplate channel
and must not enter wall cavity. Do not seal
around PRD drainage slot
(fig.11).
WARNING
Check there are no hidden cables or pipes
before drilling holes for wall plugs. Use great
care when using power tools near water.
The use of a residual current device (RCD) is
recommended when using power tools.
