PLUMBING INSTALLATION
Plumbing to be carried out before wiring
• DO NOT use jointing compounds on any
pipe fittings for the installation.
• DO NOT solder fittings near the shower unit
as heat can transfer along the pipework and
damage components.
• Compression fittings MUST be used to
connect to the inlet of the shower (fig.7).
Push-on fittings must NOT be used as full
engagement cannot be guaranteed.
• If installing a feed pipe from the back or
bottom, the centre of the inlet valve to the
wall surface is 21mm (fig.7).
NOTE: If entry is from the back, the nut of the
compression fitting will be partially behind the
surface of the wall. This area MUST be left clear
when plastering and tiling around the pipework
in order to make the nut accessible for future
adjustments.
NOTE: An additional stopvalve (complying with
Water Regulations) must be fitted in the mains
water supply to the shower as an independent
means of isolating the water supply should
maintenance or servicing be necessary. If this
isolator is fitted in a loft space, the loft must
have a fixed access ladder and be boarded, with
appropriate lighting from the access point to the
isolator.
IMPORTANT: Before completing the connection
of the water supply to the inlet of the shower, flush
out the pipework to remove all swarf and system
debris. This can be achieved by connecting a hose
to the pipework and turning on the mains water
supply long enough to clear the debris to waste.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The outlet of the shower acts as a vent and
must not be connected to anything other
than the hose and shower head supplied.
