Outlet Connections

The outlet for the shower is ½" BSP male thread. This will accept any standard shower hose
screwed directly onto the exposed thread at the rear of the Mixer. Refer to the Francis Pegler luxury
showers brochure for a comprehensive choice of "Waterfall" shower kits. A hose retaining ring is
supplied with many Pegler Yorkshire slider rail kits, ensuring that the handset cannot be dropped
and submerged in water creating a possible back syphonage problem. See Bylaw 17 (2) B.
In addition Pegler Yorkshire also offer a 6.0 l/m shower regulator that can be used in conjunction
with all Pegler Yorkshire showering products. (Order code 343202)

Operation

Operation of product is simple and easy. The Bath and Shower Mixer is supplied maximum factory
set at 46ºC (but may need adjusting due to your specific site requirements at first time of installation
see "Temperature Setting" for details)
However for showering applications we recommend a temperature no greater than 43ºC. It is
therefore essential that when using the shower function of the Bath and Shower Mixer the outlet
temperature is reduced to accommodate a lower temperature and prevent injury.

Bath Fill

The purchase of this Bath and Shower Mixer gives you complete confidence that you can both bathe
and shower in perfect safety. Operating the central easy grip handles allow full control of water flow
and temperature adjustment on both the bath and shower outlets. Adjustment on temperature
being the primarily function ensuring that temperature safety is at heart of this product.
The default operation is always the bath fill application and is operated by rotating anti-clockwise
the flow control lever (large lower lever). This will rotate about 100 degrees to full flow.
IMPORTANT: The temperature control lever (smaller upper lever) will rotate also with the flow control
lever but will not change the temperature this needs to be done as an additional action. To get
temperature adjustment the temperature control lever marked with the coloured indice should be
used. This will also rotate in an anti-clockwise direction to increase the temperature. It will also
rotate to a stop which should supply no more than 46ºC

Function of Diverter

Pressing down on the diverter at the front of the product (located at the end of the spout) will
change the water flow direction to the shower outlet (located at the rear of the product) If the shower
application is being used, once the water is turned off the Bath and Shower Mixer will always divert
back to bath application ready for next time of use.

Commissioning

Since installed supply conditions may differ from those used in testing and setting the Bath and
Shower Mixers during final inspection, it is necessary to commission the new Bath and Shower
Mixer. The following checks should be used to ensure correct installation of the product.
a) The designation of the thermostatic mixing valve matches the intended application (i.e. if the Bath
and Shower Mixer is supplied at 2 bar then the valve must have HP-T and HP-S designations)
b) The supply pressures are within the valves operating range (see "Conditions for normal use")
c) The supply temperatures are within the valves operating range (see "Conditions for normal use")
and comply with the guidance information on the prevention of legionnella.
Please note: Isolation/service valves and filters are designed and provided within the Bath and
Shower Mixer.
Please note: If all the above conditions are met, proceed to set the temperature as stipulated.
Please note: the supply conditions are not within the parameters for normal use the valve may
still be suitable, but individual engineers must carry out their own risk assessment and satisfy
themselves that the units are still suitable.
