This document describes the Pulse Refuge Combo Shower System, a comprehensive showering solution designed for both aesthetic appeal and functional versatility. The system integrates a showerhead, a handshower, and a diverter valve, allowing users to customize their showering experience.
The Refuge Combo Shower System provides two primary water outputs: a fixed showerhead and a flexible handshower. The system is controlled by a main valve handle and a diverter handle. The main valve handle regulates water flow and temperature. Turning the handle to the left increases hot water, while turning it to the right increases cold water. It is recommended to always turn on cold water first to prevent accidental burns or scalding, especially when children or elderly individuals are using the shower.
The diverter valve is a key feature, allowing users to switch between the showerhead, the handshower, or activate both simultaneously for a dual-function experience. When the diverter handle is facing upwards, water flows exclusively through the showerhead. When the handle is turned to the right, water flows only through the handshower. Positioning the diverter handle between these two functions activates both the showerhead and the handshower at the same time. This flexibility allows users to tailor their shower to their preference, whether they desire a broad, overhead spray or a more focused, handheld rinse.
The system is designed for wall-mounted installation, with the main valve body secured to a stud within the wall. The shower arm extends from the wall to support the showerhead, while the handshower is connected via a flexible hose to a wall connector and can be placed in a holder on a slide bar. The slide bar allows for vertical adjustment of the handshower, accommodating users of different heights.
The Refuge Combo Shower System is designed for ease of use and installation. The installation process involves securing the main valve body, connecting supply lines, and then attaching the various components such as the shower arm, showerhead, slide bar, handshower, and control handles. The manual provides detailed, step-by-step instructions with illustrations to guide the installer through each stage, from confirming the installation position to final assembly.
A notable feature is the option for installation with or without a bathtub. If a bathtub is present, the tub spout cap is removed, and plumbers tape is applied to all joint threads. If there is no tub, the tub spout cap is kept in place. Plumbers tape is recommended for all joint threads to ensure a watertight seal, though it is noted that plumbers tape is not necessary if welding is used for connections.
The system includes a plaster guard that is removed after confirming the installation position. Trim sleeves and a trim nut are installed to provide a finished look around the valve body. The diverter handle and valve handle are secured with set screws, and covers are placed over them for a clean aesthetic.
The handshower holder is adjustable along the slide bar, allowing users to position the handshower at their desired height. This feature enhances convenience, particularly for families with varying user heights or for tasks like cleaning the shower enclosure. The flexible hose for the handshower provides ample reach and maneuverability.
The design emphasizes user safety, particularly with the recommendation to always turn on cold water first to prevent scalding. The valve is not intended to be used as a support device, reinforcing the importance of proper installation and safe usage.
Maintaining the Refuge Combo Shower System is straightforward, focusing on routine cleaning to preserve its appearance and functionality. To keep the valve looking new, it is recommended to wipe it down with a soft cotton cloth after each use. This helps prevent water spots and soap scum buildup.
For more thorough cleaning and to protect against hard water stains and mineral deposits, periodically using an auto spray wax is suggested. This can help create a protective barrier on the surfaces.
When cleaning the system, mild liquid soap and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth should be used. After applying soap, the surfaces should be rinsed with clean water. It is crucial to avoid using any kind of harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish and components of the shower system. Adhering to these maintenance guidelines will help ensure the longevity and aesthetic appeal of the Refuge Combo Shower System.
