Triton VELINO User Manual

Bar Mixer Shower
5
PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS
DO NOT use jointing compounds on any pipe
ttings for the installation.
DO NOT solder ttings near the mixer shower
as heat can transfer along the pipework and
damage the shower.
DO NOT subject the shower to a water
temperature above 80°C during installation, use,
maintenance or disinfection.
IMPORTANT:
• The layout and sizing of pipework MUST
be such that nominally equal inlet supply
pressures are achieved and the effects of
other draw-offs are minimised.
• The pipework should be installed such
that other taps and appliances being
operated elsewhere on the premises do not
signicantly affect the ow.
• When connecting pipework avoid using tight
90° elbows; swept or formed bends will give
the best performance.
• The hot water pipe entry MUST be made to
the left-hand side inlet, marked HOT, ‘H’ or
with a red/orange label.
• Suitable isolating valves (complying with
Water Regulations and Bylaws) MUST be
tted on the hot and cold water supplies
to the shower as an independent means
of isolating the water supplies should
maintenance or servicing be necessary;
position as close as is practicable to the water
supply inlets of the mixer shower. If this
isolator is tted in a loft space, the loft must
have a xed access ladder and be boarded,
with appropriate lighting from the access
point to the isolator.
• Flush pipework to clear the system of debris
and check for leaks before connecting to the
mixer.
• The mixer inlets contain removalve lters that
may become blocked if debris is not ushed
through before tting.
Commercial Applications
• For commercial applications in-line lters are
recommended.
Hard Water Areas
a. 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 tted. For advice on the
scale inhibitor, please contact Customer
Experience.
b. For best performance the shower head MUST
be regularly cleaned to remove scale and
debris.
WATER SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
This mixer shower is suitable for:
• Gravity water systems
• Pumped gravity systems
• Fully modulating type combination boilers
• Multi-point hot water heaters
• Thermal storage
• Unvented systems
When installing this mixer with a combination or
multi-point boiler, it may be necessary to install
ow regulation.
Check that the appliance is capable of delivering
hot water at a minimum switch-on ow rate
of 3 litres per minute. At ow rates between 3
and 8 litres per minute, the appliance MUST be
capable of raising the water temperature to 52°C
minimum.
Water temperature at the inlet of the mixer
shower MUST remain relatively constant
when ow rate adjustments are made - refer
to the appliance operating manual to conrm
compatibility with this mixer shower.
Where thermal store systems and instantaneous
gas water heaters are used, if excessive draw-off
takes place, the appliance may not be able to
maintain an adequate output temperature.
This could result in the shower temperature
becoming noticeably cooler.
Flow regulators can be tted with high-pressure
water systems to reduce ow rate and assist
economy.
The hot supply temperature MUST remain a
minimum of 10°C hotter than the required blend
temperature for optimum performance.
