Isolation valves are supplied with the Quartz Smart Valve
™
and
must be fitted on both inlets and the blended water outlet. All
pipe work should be run in 15mm pipe. All pipe work should
be supported. For externally pumped gravity fed installations,
22mm pipe work should be run as close to the Quartz Smart
Valve
™
as possible before reducing down to 15mm.
To ensure optimum performance use the minimum amount of elbows.
To maximise flow rates we recommend using copper pipe with the minimum amount of elbows.

!
The inlet supply centres are 48mm.
Please note arrow on isolation valve to indicate direction of flow.
DO NOT use compression fittings on the inlet and outlet spigots this will aect the
warranty if fitted.

Choose the position for your Quartz Smart Valve
™
as close to the bath controller as possible.
The Quartz Smart Valve
™
may be sited in the roof space above the proposed bath site, in the
airing cupboard or behind a screwed bath panel if more convenient. If siting in the roof space,
ensure that freezing cannot occur and that no insulation material is placed under or over the
The Quartz Smart Valve
™
. Please refer to the system layout diagrams.
The Quartz Smart Valve
™
MUST be sited in a position that is safely accessible for servicing
and commissioning purposes. When fitted in a loft space, the route to and the area around
the

The optimum position for the Quartz Smart Valve
™
is in the roof space above the
controller site to take full advantage of the ease and speed of installation.
The distance between the Quartz Smart Valve
™
and the controller must be within the
range of the 10m data cable supplied.
