This document provides comprehensive instructions for the installation, use, and maintenance of a bath filler, designed to enhance the bathing experience with its high-quality finish and reliable performance. The bath filler is suitable for a wide range of domestic settings, offering both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
The bath filler is designed to control the flow and temperature of water into a bathtub. It features separate controls for hot and cold water, allowing users to achieve their desired water temperature with precision. The mixer body integrates these two water supplies, ensuring a consistent and comfortable flow. Its primary function is to efficiently fill a bath, providing a steady stream of water while maintaining ease of operation. The design emphasizes user-friendliness, making it simple to adjust water flow and temperature. The robust construction ensures durability and a long service life, making it a dependable addition to any bathroom.
The bath filler is engineered for straightforward use and optimal performance across various water pressure conditions. It is suitable for all supply pressures, though balanced hot and cold supplies are recommended for the best experience. For installations with low pressure (tank-fed systems), a minimum height of 2 meters from the nozzle outlet to the underside of the cold tank is advised to ensure adequate performance. This ensures that even in homes with lower water pressure, the bath filler will operate effectively, providing a satisfying flow rate.
The controls consist of two handles, one for hot and one for cold water, allowing for independent adjustment. This independent control gives users precise command over the water temperature, enabling them to mix hot and cold water to their exact preference. The handles are designed for comfortable gripping and smooth operation, making it easy to turn the water on and off, and to fine-tune the temperature.
Installation of the bath filler is designed to be as simple as possible. Users are instructed to identify all components and check for completeness before beginning. The mixer body is installed directly onto the bath using provided back nuts, ensuring a secure and stable fit. Once the mixer body is in place, the hot and cold water supplies are connected. After installation, it is crucial to turn on the water supplies and allow both hot and cold taps to run for a few minutes. This step is vital for checking all joints and connections for any leaks, ensuring a watertight installation. The bath filler is designed to comply with Water Regulations, and users are encouraged to contact their Local Water Authority for further details if needed. This commitment to regulatory compliance ensures that the product meets safety and quality standards.
The design of the bath filler also takes into account the aesthetic appeal, with a high-quality finish that complements various bathroom decors. The visible surfaces are crafted to maintain their appearance over time, provided they are cared for properly. This attention to both form and function ensures that the bath filler not only performs well but also enhances the overall look of the bathroom.
Maintaining the bath filler is crucial for preserving its high-quality finish and ensuring its longevity. The manufacturer emphasizes that the fitting has a high-quality finish that should be treated with care. The recommended cleaning method is to wipe the mixer with a soft, damp cloth. This gentle approach helps to prevent damage to the surface. For more stubborn stains, washing-up liquid can be used, which is effective yet mild enough not to harm the finish. It is explicitly stated that all bath cleaning powders and liquids, including those marketed as "non-scratch," should be avoided, as they can damage the surface of the fitting. This guidance helps users protect their investment and keep the bath filler looking new for longer.
The bath filler also includes provisions for addressing common issues, such as dripping. If the fitting begins to drip, a clear step-by-step maintenance procedure is provided. First, the water supply must be turned off. Then, the handle (d) and screw (c) are removed from the valve (a). The spline adaptor (b) should also be removed carefully to avoid damage. Using a suitable spanner, the valve can then be removed. Once removed, the seating, rubber washer, and ceramic disc should be carefully cleaned. After cleaning, all components are replaced in reverse order, and the water supply is turned back on. This detailed guide empowers users to perform basic troubleshooting and repairs, potentially saving them the cost and inconvenience of professional service. If the problem persists after following these steps, users are advised to contact the helpline, quoting the product code for further assistance.
The product comes with a 5-year guarantee covering any manufacturing defects, providing peace of mind for the user. However, it is important to note that the 5-year guarantee on the valves is invalidated if damaged by any waterborne debris. This highlights the importance of maintaining clean water supplies and potentially using filters if water quality is a concern. The manufacturer also reserves the right to alter specifications as necessary in the interest of continuous product development, indicating a commitment to ongoing improvement and innovation.
In the unlikely event that a part is missing upon receipt, customers are encouraged to contact the manufacturer via email for immediate dispatch of the missing part. This proactive customer service approach ensures that users can complete their installation without unnecessary delays. The comprehensive instructions and maintenance guidelines are designed to ensure that the bath filler provides reliable and satisfying performance throughout its lifespan, making it a valuable and durable addition to any bathroom.
