INSTALLATION WARNING! The mixer valve should be fitted only after all the pipework has been installed and ensure no pipes or wires are behind where the screws will be required. Do not modify or use jointing compounds on any of the pipe fittings. Do not solder fittings near the mixer valve as heat can damage the valves or seals. -

The thermostatic mixer valve is designed to work best when the feed pressures of both hot and cold water are the same. If there is a difference in pressure it will cause the flow of water through the valve to pulse rather than being a steady flow.
