MODULATING COMBI BOILER
This thermostatic shower valve is designed for use with modulating
combination boilers.
When installing on a modulating combination boiler it is sometimes
possible for the interaction of a thermostatic valve with the combi to
cause the boiler to cut out and cut in again, with the result that the
water will become alternatively cold and hot. To overcome this, a 4 L/min
ow regulator should be tted upstream of the thermostatic valve.
It should be tted in any 15mm compression tting in the dedicated cold supply pipe.
It is important to choose a compression tting located in a position which is accessible after installation
and it must be tted the correct way round for the direction of ow. The regulator can be tted in either
the inlet or outlet side of the compression tting. If tting in an outlet side, ensure the o-ring is seated
fully in the visible rebate around the edge of the regulator. Use the tip of a small screwdriver or similar
to achieve this. Ensure the tail of the pipe is not fouling the regulator (shorten if required) and do up
the compression tting as normal. In a minority of cases, where the boiler is of a type which stores a
small quantity of very hot water, it may also be necessary to t a 4 l/min ow regulator in the hot supply.
