Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Installation of the Triton Aspirante DuElec 9.5kW electric shower requires a dedicated electrical circuit with adequate amperage (typically a 40A breaker and 6mm² cable) to safely support the 9.5kW power draw. It is strongly recommended that installation be performed by a qualified electrician. The unit needs a suitable water inlet connection and connection to the hot water supply. The dual shower head system may require additional mounting points for the fixed rainfall head.
Compatibility:
This shower unit is designed for direct electric water heating and is compatible with most standard plumbing systems. The included anti-twist hose features universal fittings, making it suitable for the included showerhead and compatible with other standard shower accessories. Ensure your home's electrical system is up to code and capable of handling the 9.5kW load.
Care:
To maintain performance and longevity:
- Limescale Prevention: The shower has a built-in phased shutdown feature to help reduce limescale. Ensure this is activated.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the showerheads to remove any mineral deposits. Use a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleaner. For stubborn deposits, a mixture of white vinegar and water can be applied to the showerhead (ensure the unit is powered off and water supply is off before detaching for soaking if necessary).
- Hose Maintenance: Wipe the stainless steel hose with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
