Installation instructions
WARNING! ALL WIRING AND INSTALLATION MUST BE SUPERVISED
WARNING! DO NOT INSTALL THIS SHOWER IN A ROOM
We recommend that the installation be done in the following sequence.
a) Fixing the shower to the wall
a) Fixing the shower to the wall
1. Position the riser rail at a convenient height for majority of
users as detailed in diagram 4 and mark its position.
2. Position the heater so the sides of the unit are vertical and
the top is level with, or up to 0.6 metres (2ft) maximum
below the top of the riser rail.
Choose a flat piece of wall to avoid the possibility of
distorting the backplate thus making the front cover a poor
fit.
3. Adjust the positions to get the most convenient arrangement
taking the following into account.
a) The heater must not be mounted in the direct spray
from the showerhead.
b) The handset must not be able to come into contact with any used water in the bath or
basin. If it can, even after the hose has been retained by the hose retainer (see
diagram 13 and separate accessories fitting instructions sheet), then a vacuum
breaker must be fitted.
4. Fix the riser rail with screws provided. The fixing holes at the base of the brackets will be
disclosed by removing the plastic fronts.
Assemble as shown in diagram 13.
5. Decide the position of the electrical cable inside the
unit. If top or bottom entry is chosen (according to
diagram 5), cut away the walls of the back-plate as
shown in diagram 7.
There is also the option to fit the cable from the rear
in the channel provided.
6. Decide the cut away position of entry of the cold
water pipe into the unit.
Cut away the back-plate and front cover as shown
in diagram 6 or 7.
There is also the option to have rear entry (see later
section on plumbing).
7. If you have not yet done so, remove the front cover
(complete with control knob) of the unit by undoing
the retaining screws at the top and bottom of the
unit and lifting the cover off.
The top-fixing hole is a keyhole slot, and should be marked and drilled first.
Tighten top screw with head protruding about 10mm from wall and hook the back-plate
over the screw head. This allows for correct and accurate alignment of your shower
before marking and fixing the bottom/side position.
You may not wish to tighten up all 3 screws at this stage as the holes are elongated to
allow for adjustment after other connections have taken place.
