Page 8: Technical Data
Technical Data The Twyford Sola thermostatic shower valve is suitable for installations on all types of plumbing systems, including gravity supplies, fully pumped, modulating combination boiler, unvented water heater and unbalanced supplies i.e. Cold Mains & Tank Fed Hot. They are not suitable for non-modulating combination boilers. - Page 9 Pumped Systems Pumped systems use a booster pump to increase the pressure of the gravity fed water supplies. These booster pumps are used where the head of water is insufficient to provide a satisfactory shower or where a high performance shower is required.
-
Page 10: Site Preparation
Gravity System The drawing shows a typical installation of a shower valve on a gravity supplied system. Please note the minimum head pressure required to ensure correct operation of the valve. In accordance with good plumbing practice, we recommend that a totally independent hot and cold water supply be taken to the valve. -
Page 11: Installation - Exposed
Installation - SF1135CP and SF1136CP Exposed Shower Valve The valve requires the supply pipework to have 150mm centres and sufficient copper pipe (15 to 18 mm) must protrude from the finished tiled surface to allow a water tight compression joint to be made. Isolation valves must be fitted in an accessible position to both the hot and cold supplies should the valve need to be isolated in the future for servicing. -
Page 12: Installation - Concealed
Installation - SF1137CP concealed Shower Valve The shower mixing valve is designed for concealed pipework, whether in a solid or studded wall. The inlet connections can be rotated to suit the direction of the supply pipes. The outlet connection can be upwards or downward by inserting the outlet plug (7) into the port which is not required. -
Page 13: Solid Wall
Solid wall • Create a large enough cavity for the shower valve and chase the wall for the two supply pipes and a route from the outlet of the shower valve to the water outlet. • Fix the shower valve into the cavity using the 2 fixing screws (10) ensuring the valve is horizontal. -
Page 14: Calibration
Calibration The Sola shower valve has a factory set outlet temperature of 38˚C via the security setting. This is based on a balanced supply pressure and a stable hot water inlet temperature of 65˚C. However, the calibration point MUST be checked and re-set as necessary to suit site conditions. -
Page 15: Problem Solving
Problem Solving The following details are supplied for on site queries, should you require any further assistance our Technical Department can be contacted on 01926 516800. Fault Solution Showering temperature is not hot enough. Ensure the hot water supply is at a constant temperature above 60˚C. -
