Mira Crescent Installation, Operation, Maintenance Manual page 31

Maintenance Procedure - Inlet Strainers
Blockage of the inlet strainer screens can lead to poor flow performance and
reduced temperature control. It is essential that the inlet strainer screens are
periodically cleaned or, if necessary, renewed as part of a preventative maintenance
programme.
A Strainer pack is available for the Mira Crescent, containing 2 strainer screens
and 2 retainers.
1. Turn off the supplies to the shower control. Open the flow control to release
the trapped water pressure and to assist in draining the residual water.
2. The strainers are located at the inlet of each checkvalve cartridge. Remove
the cartridges to allow access.
3. Carefully remove the strainers.
4. Clean under a jet of water, or renew if damaged.
5. Refit cartridges, strainers and retainers. Do not overtighten the cartridge
heads when refitting.
6. Turn the flow control fully clockwise to the off position. Restore the water
supplies, and check for leaks.
7. Follow the steps outlined in Removing/Fitting Knob and Concealing Plate
Assemblies to reassemble the shower control.
