Altro Whiterock
™
hand wash station
Making a secure installation
It is essential that the walls, ceilings and oors, provide a
suitable structural nish capable of taking the dynamic and
static loads imposed by the xings, to support the unit.
Insufcient structural integrity will void guarantees.
The substrates that the mechanical xings are being xed
into, should be sound and stable without deection to
ensure that the xings retain their integrity and prevent any
movement throughout the units working lifespan.
Particular care should be taken with studwork walls and
suspended ceilings which will usually require the inclusion of
a pattress to sufciently strengthen the structure.
Poor xings will compromise performance and could lead to
the failure of the unit.
Ensure that no water or electrical cables are exposed or
showing signs of leakage and that no services are hidden
directly behind the unit, which could be damaged during
the installation.
Installation of this unit should be done by competent trades
people. Installation of the Altro Whiterock hand wash station
is a two person job.
Ensure that appropriate PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)
is worn during the installation process.
The unit should not be installed in a humid or wet
environment.
