Excel B; Solid And Dry-Lined Walls - Mira Excel Installation & User Manual

Excel B

3. Solid and dry-lined walls

Read the section: Installation Requirements first.
The built-in shower control is supplied with a support bracket that can be used to
install the shower control into a solid or dry-lined wall structure.
A foam seal is fitted to the concealing plate assembly to seal the bracket to the wall
surface (i.e. tiles). This will provide a sufficient seal for most installations to prevent
ingress of water into the wall cavity.
3.1 Decide on a suitable position for the
shower control. The position of the
shower control and the shower fittings
must provide a minimum gap of 25
mm between the spill-over level of the
shower tray/bath and the handset. This
is to prevent back-siphonage.
3.2 Determine the route for the incoming
hot and cold supply pipework.
3.3 Determine the route for the outlet
pipework. When connecting to the biv
shower fittings it is recommended that
the outlet be positioned above and to
one side of the shower control. This is
to prevent the flexible hose from
obstructing the temperature and flow
knobs of the shower control. For further
information on the installation of the
shower fittings refer to the Installation
and User Guide.
