Thermostatic shower pole
1
INTRODUCTION
This book contains all the necessary fitting and
operating instructions for your Triton Leona
thermostatic bar mixer shower pole.
Please read the instructions carefully. Read
through the whole of this book BEFORE
beginning your installation.
The shower pole installation MUST be carried
out by a suitably competent person and in
sequence of this instruction book.
Care taken during the installation will provide a
long and trouble free life from your shower pole.
For best performance within the specified
running pressure range a minimum flow of eight
litres per minute should be available to both
inlets.
The mixer shower MUST NOT be subjected to
water temperatures above 80°C.
This tap is suitable for high water pressures only
and should be fitted in accordance with Water
Regulations.
Pressure range – 1.0 bar to 5 bar
The shower pole is suitable for fully modulating
type combination boilers and multi-point hot
water heaters. It is also suitable for thermal
storage, unvented systems and pumped gravity
systems.
IMPORTANT: Before installing with a gas
instantaneous water heater, make sure it is
capable of delivering hot water at a minimum
switch-on flow rate of 3 litres per minute. At
flow rates between 3 and 8 litres per minute,
the appliance must be capable of raising the
water temperature to a minimum of 52°C.
Water temperature at the inlet to the mixer
must remain relatively constant when flow rate
adjustments are made (refer to the water heater
operating manual to confirm compatibility with
this mixer shower).
This mixer is supplied with an integral single
check valve and integral filter in each inlet.
Inlet connections are to 15 mm compression or
½” BSP female fittings (not supplied).
SAFETY WARNINGS
a. Layout and sizing of pipework MUST be
such that when other services are used,
pressures at the shower control inlets do not
fall below the recommended minimum.
b. DO NOT choose a position where the
shower pole could become frozen.
c. DO NOT connect this shower pole to any
form of tap or fitting not recommended by
the manufacturer.
d. The showerhead MUST be regularly cleaned
to remove scale and debris.
e. Conveniently situated service valves in
each inlet supply MUST be fitted as an
independent method of isolating the
shower should maintenance or servicing be
necessary.
f. If it is intended to operate the shower
in areas of hard water (above 200 ppm
temporary hardness), a scale inhibitor may
have to be fitted. For advice on the Triton
scale inhibitor, please contact Customer
Service.
g. DO NOT operate the shower pole
outside the guidelines as laid out in ‘site
requirements’.
Replacement parts can be ordered from Triton
Customer Service. See ‘spare parts’ for details and part
numbers.
