Product Information

Full details

The Bristan Sail Complete Shower Pack 2 in Chrome is designed for homeowners seeking a stylish, minimalist shower experience with modern functionality. Its key benefit is the integrated dual control, allowing separate temperature and flow management for precise comfort. A potential caveat is the need for specific installation depths, requiring 35mm of space in UK wall cavities. This comprehensive pack includes a sleek shower valve, a 250mm fixed head, a single-function handset, hose, and wall outlet, all finished in a chic chrome.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the minimum installation depth for the shower valve?

The shower valve requires a minimum installation depth of 35mm within UK wall cavities.

Can I use this shower with a combi boiler?

This shower pack is generally compatible with most UK water systems, including those with combi boilers, provided adequate water pressure is available.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Clean the chrome finish using a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching.

Does the handset have multiple spray patterns?

No, the included single-function handset offers one spray pattern.

How do I access the filters for cleaning?

Filter servicing requires rear access to the shower valve.

What is the warranty period for this shower pack?

The Bristan Sail Complete Shower Pack 2 comes with a 5-year guarantee.

Is this shower suitable for a gravity-fed system?

While compatible with most UK systems, performance on low-pressure gravity-fed systems may be limited. It is best suited for systems with adequate water pressure.

Troubleshooting

No water flow or low pressure

Check that the main water supply is turned on. Ensure filters are clean and not blocked. Verify that the diverter is correctly set to the desired outlet.

Difficulty controlling temperature

Ensure the dual controls are functioning correctly. Check for any debris in the cartridge. If issues persist, the cartridge may need servicing or replacement.

Diverter not switching between outlets

Inspect the diverter mechanism for obstructions. Ensure the controls are being operated smoothly. If the diverter is stiff or unresponsive, professional servicing may be required.

Leaking from valve or connections

Check all 15mm compression fittings for tightness. Ensure seals and washers are present and in good condition. If leaks persist, the valve itself may have an internal issue.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers independent control over water flow and temperature.
  • Includes both a fixed shower head and a handheld shower for versatility.
  • Compact valve design suitable for installations with limited space.
  • Modern and minimalist aesthetic complements contemporary bathrooms.
  • Easy-to-access cartridge for straightforward maintenance.

Cons

  • Requires 35mm of depth for valve installation, which may not suit all existing plumbing.
  • Rear access is necessary for servicing filters, which might complicate maintenance in tight spaces.
  • Integral diverter may require more involved installation than separate components.
  • Handset has only a single function, limiting spray pattern options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the wall cavity provides the required 35mm depth for the shower valve.
  2. Connect the valve to your existing hot and cold water supplies using 15mm compression fittings.
  3. Install the fixed shower head arm and the handset holder with its wall outlet, utilizing the Wall Mount Technology for secure attachment.
  4. Connect the shower hose to the diverter outlet and the handset.
  5. Flush the system thoroughly before attaching any shower heads or handsets to remove debris.

Compatibility:

  • Requires a water system capable of providing adequate pressure for optimal performance (specific minimum/maximum pressures not detailed, but typical for UK systems).
  • Designed for UK wall cavities with a minimum depth of 35mm.
  • Connections are standard 15mm compression fittings.

Care:

  • Clean the chrome finish regularly with a soft, damp cloth to maintain its shine.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the plating.
  • Periodically check and clean the filters, which requires rear access to the valve for servicing.
