Troubleshooting

No hot or cold water from the valve

Check that the main water supply is on and that the isolation valves to the shower are open. Ensure there are no blockages in the pipework leading to the valve.

Temperature fluctuations during use

Ensure the thermostatic element is functioning correctly. If the issue persists, check for consistent water pressure from your supply. Debris in the valve mechanism can sometimes cause issues; refer to the care section for cleaning instructions or consult a professional.

Leaking from the valve or connections

Verify that all connections are securely tightened. Check seals and washers for wear or damage and replace if necessary. If the leak persists from the valve body itself, professional servicing or replacement may be required.

Low water flow

Inspect the shower head and hose for blockages. Check the filters within the valve inlets for debris and clean them as per the care instructions. Ensure your water pressure is adequate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The RAK Ceramics Amalfi Thermostatic Bar Valve is designed for wall mounting and typically requires professional installation to ensure proper connection to your hot and cold water supplies. Ensure the wall can support the weight and that access to the pipework is available for installation and potential maintenance. The valve has a horizontal orientation and a G 1/2" outlet connection.

Compatibility: This valve is compatible with most standard UK plumbing systems. For optimal performance, it is recommended that your water system can provide consistent pressure. Minimum and maximum operating pressures should be checked against manufacturer specifications if available.

For stubborn marks, a diluted vinegar solution can be used sparingly, followed by a thorough rinse with clean water and drying with a soft cloth.
