Shower Installation - Mira Extreme Thermostatic Installation And User Manual

3. Shower Installation

The following installation procedure is based on a bottom entry pipework configuration
(rising hot and cold water supplies) and a top entry electrical supply configuration (via
miniature trunking from above). Using this procedure as a guide, adjust the steps for
alternative water supply or electrical supply configurations as appropriate.
3.1 Decide on a suitable location for
the Mira Extreme avoiding buried
cables and pipes. Leave a minimum
distance of 200 mm from the ceiling
to allow for the fitting and removal of
the cover. Make sure that when the
hose retaining ring is placed on the
lowest position on the slide bar, there
is a minimum distance of 25 mm
between the handset and the bath
or shower tray spillover when the
handset is hanging down.
3.2 Fit the three rubber feet into the
recesses in the case as shown. The
feet will reduce the noise transmitted
by the power shower through the
wall.
3.3 Using a spirit level, position the
Mira Extreme on the wall and mark
through the three fixing points.
Note! Special consideration should
be given to the strength of the fixing
arrangements when installing on to a
dry lined, stud partition or dry partition
wall structure. Installers may wish to
obtain alternative proprietary cavity
fixings, or choose other options such
as fabricating rear supports using
wooden blocks; however, these
methods of fixing are beyond the
scope of this guide.
Warning! Make sure the marked
fixing points are not inline with buried
cables and pipes before drilling.
