  • Page 2 INTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing this Roper Rhodes product. This guide covers the installation and commissioning of the shower valve. This shower valve must be installed in accordance with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999. We recommend this product should only be fitted by a qualified plumber.

    WHATS IN THE BOX Before installation please ensure all components are present. The following illustrations can be used as a guide and used for reference during installation.

  • Page 4: Valve Installation

    VALVE INSTALLATION Most problems associated with the operation of thermostatic shower valves are caused by debris in the new pipe work getting into the thermostat. These problems are easily avoided by thoroughly flushing the pipe work BEFORE the valve is fitted. Failure to do so may invalidate your guarantee. 1.
  • Page 5 Brass Manifold Isolation Valve Figure 2 3. Install the supply pipework to the isolation valve and the brass manifolds. The hot water feed should be installed into the left hand manifold and the cold water feed to the right hand manifold. Ensure the isolation valves are mounted so that they will be visible and accessible for later stages (Figure 2).
  • Page 6 COLD OUTLET 1 OUTLET 2 Figure 4 5. Connect the four flexible hoses to the manifolds - ensure that each hose has a rubber washer inserted at each end to create a watertight seal. Once connected, label each hose with the corresponding inlet / outlet - this will help easily identify which hose is which during later installation stages.
  • Page 7 COLD OUTLET 1 OUTLET 2 Figure 6 7. Once satisfied that there are no leaks, turn the water supply off and disconnect the valve from the flexible hoses. Before installing plasterboard and tiles, use the zip tie provided to tie the ends of the hoses together to make them easier to access later.
  • Page 8 Figure 8 9. Once a hole has been cut in the plasterboard, secure it to the stud. The tile guide should pass through the hole in the plasterboard. Tile up to the edges of the tile guide to ensure the correct size access hole.
  • Page 9 Figure 10 11. Pull the flexible hoses through the access hole in the wall and remove the zip tie. Figure 11 12. Working from left to right, using the labels as a guide, connect the hoses to the valve. Ensure the hose from the hot supply is connected to the inlet marked hot on the valve.
  • Page 10 Figure 12 13. Lift the valve and push the hoses back through the access hole, making sure the hoses do not kink (Figure 12). Position the valve flat against the tiles and line up the fixing holes with those on the metal installation frame.
  • Page 11 Springs Button Fixing Nut Figure 14 You are now ready to install the cover plate and valve controls. 15. The cover plate is supplied with control buttons marked for a shower handset and shower head. A spare button for a bath filler is also supplied. If you are using a shower handset and shower head, you do not need to change the button and can proceed to Step 16.
  • Page 12 Figure 16 You are now ready to set the maximum temperature of the valve. 17. With both outlet buttons checked for smooth operation, using a thermometer, test the temperature of the water from the outlets. Rotate the cartridge spindle anti-clockwise to increase the temperature and clockwise to reduce the temperature until the water from the outlet reaches the maximum recommended temperature of 44ºC.
  • Page 13 Figure 18 19. Once installed, the handle should click as it rotates. This click can be adjusted to give more feedback when in use. Rotating the feedback screw clockwise will make the pin stiffer and the click will be more noticeable - rotating the screw anti-clockwise will loosen the pin and soften the click.
  • Page 14 TESTING AND ANNUAL SERVICING It is recommended that showers do not exceed 44°C. The valve temperature should never exceed 46°C. After commissioning, carry out the cold failure test to ensure the valve operates at the correct outlet temperature. The valve should be tested to ensure correct operation during installation and thereafter at stated intervals decided by the user but never at greater than 12 monthly intervals.
