Page 6: Water Supply Conditions
WATER SUPPLY CONDITIONS Introduction These thermostatic shower mixers are manufactured to the highest standards. The mixer is intended to be installed on high pressure systems (1.0 bar or greater). The mixer has safety features such as cool body technolgy and temperature limit stop. To make installation easier, fast fix wall mounts are supplied. Ø15mm water supply pipes should be installed at 150mm horizontal centres in the wall, behind a shower panel or tiled duct wall. -
Page 7: Water Regulations
WATER REGULATIONS CATEGORIES OF RISK The water regulations published in 1999* take a new approach to backflow in that they look at different categories of risk. The installer must assess the risk from the various categories of fluid in adjacent appliances before determining the level of backflow protection required for a particular installation. -
Page 8: Pre-Installation Notes
PRE-INSTALLATION NOTES The thermostatic mixing valve must be installed in such a position that maintenance of the TMV, its valves and the commissioning and testing of the TMV can be undertaken. Ceratherm C100 is an exposed two hole thermostatically controlled shower mixer. This product is designed to provide water from ambient cold up to a safe maximum temperature for bathing. -
