General

1.
The Mixer must not be installed in an area where it may freeze.
2.
For stud partitions alternative fixings may be required.
3.
Isolating valves must be installed close to the Mixer for ease of maintenance.
4.
Pipework must be rigidly supported and avoid any strain on the connections.
5.
Pipework dead-legs should be kept to a minimum.
6.
Supply pipework layout should be arranged to minimise the effect of other outlet
usage upon the dynamic pressures at the Mixer inlets.
7.
Inlet and outlet threaded joint connections should be made with PTFE tape or
liquid sealant. Do not use oil-based, non-setting joint compounds.
8.
To eliminate pipe debris it is essential that supply pipes are thoroughly flushed
through before final connection.

Flow Regulators

Important! Two flow regulators (grey
housing with black insert) are supplied with
this product. By fitting these in the inlet
elbows of the shower control this product
can be used with high pressure systems.
The regulator is fitted into the inlet elbow
of the shower control. Put the smaller
diameter in first and push until the flange
locates up against the internal shoulder.
Important! If they are to be retro-fitted
the inlet pipe will need to be shortened
by the thickness of the regulator flange to
prevent damage.
Unvented mains pressure.
Mains pressurised instantaneous hot
water, heated from a thermal store.
Gas heated showers up to 30kW output.
Gas heated showers above 30kW output.
Gravity Fed.
Pumped.
* As there is no separate flow control, the regulators provide the most satisfactory
performance. The fitting of the hot regulator is optional and will determine the strength
of the spray from the shower head.
