This is normally quite straightfor ward using 15mm copper pipes.
It is important to
ensure, at this stage, that the cold supply to the bath tap is tank fed and not
connected directly to the water mains.
6. INSTALLATION – Thermostatic Model
Your shower can be mounted directly onto the sur face or
semi recessed with concealed pipes. See Fig 6. Whichever
method is used it is essential that the mounting sur face is
absolutely flat, other wise the base will distor t causing
dif ficulty in fitting the cover and control knob.
Surface Mounting
Using the template supplied with the installation
instructions showing the three mounting hole positions,
drill 3 holes 6.5mm diameter, 45mm (13/4”) deep to
accept the rawlplugs.
Before screwing the unit into place, connect the electric cable, see Section 6
Electrical Connections. Also complete pipework if the back access is to be used.
First screw, par t way in, the 2 top mounting screws while the 3rd (bottom)
screw is inser ted. After completing installation of the mounting screws, screw firmly
into place. See Fig 7.
Recessed Mounting
Using the “Recessed” template outlined in blue.
The unit can be recessed to a depth of
40mm (15/8”).
It is recommended that a plywood
base 10–12mm thick be cut to the shape
of the outline and mounted on the wall
behind this, to give a flat mounting base.
There must be a clearance of
1–2mm around the edge of the base unit
increasing to 10mm at their air intakes
when recessing into the wall.
Cavity Wall Mounting
. For mounting onto cavity walls, it may be necessar y to use
