FAQs

What is the guarantee period for this shower valve?

The manufacturer provides a 5 Year Guarantee against faulty workmanship or materials, provided the product is installed, cared for, and used according to instructions. This excludes serviceable parts.

Can this valve be used with a combi-boiler?

Yes, this valve is fully compatible with all systems, including fully modulated combi-boilers, offering excellent flow rates even at low pressure.

How accurate is the temperature control?

The thermostatic regulation maintains temperature to within +/- 2 degrees of your set point, even if water pressure fluctuates.

What does 'full thermal protection' mean?

Full thermal protection means the valve will automatically shut down in the event of a hot or cold water supply failure, preventing scalding or a sudden cold shock.

Is this valve suitable for hard water areas?

Yes, the patented cartridge is highly resistant to calcium build-up, making it well-suited for use in hard water areas.

Can I install this valve horizontally and vertically?

Yes, the valve offers flexible installation options and can be fitted either vertically or horizontally.

What happens if the hot and cold water supplies are connected incorrectly?

The cartridge is fully reversible. If the hot and cold supplies are reversed, you can simply remove the cartridge, turn it 180°, and replace it without needing to re-plumb the connections.

Troubleshooting

No water flow or significantly reduced flow

Check that the hot and cold water supplies are turned on. Ensure there are no blockages in the pipework leading to the valve or within the shower head/outlet. Verify that the system pressure is adequate for the valve's operation. Refer to the manual for checking the cartridge for debris.

Water temperature is not stable or fluctuates significantly

Confirm that the thermostatic cartridge is correctly installed and functioning. Check for any significant pressure changes in the water supply. Ensure the valve has not been tampered with. If the issue persists, the cartridge may need servicing or replacement.

Valve drips from the outlet when turned off

This could indicate a worn or damaged seal within the cartridge or on the outlets. Turn off the water supply and inspect the seals, replacing them if necessary. If the problem continues, the internal cartridge may require professional attention.

Difficulty turning the controls

The controls may become stiff over time, especially in hard water areas. Try to gently clean around the controls. If stiff, the internal cartridge may require lubrication or replacement as per the manufacturer's instructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Maintains stable water temperature for a safer and more comfortable shower.
  • Suitable for all water systems and pressures.
  • Designed for easy maintenance in hard water areas.
  • Flexible installation options to suit different bathroom designs.
  • Automatic safety shut-off features enhance user safety.
  • Reversible cartridge simplifies installation and potential re-plumbing.

Cons

  • Requires professional installation due to concealed design.
  • Specific maintenance might be needed for optimal long-term performance, despite calcium resistance.
  • Separate shower controls (e.g., shower head, diverter) are required.
  • The 5 Year Guarantee excludes serviceable parts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Due to its concealed nature, professional installation by a qualified plumber is recommended. Ensure the wall cavity is adequate for the valve body and associated pipework. Follow the manufacturer's detailed installation manual for correct pipe connections and positioning.

Compatibility:

This valve is compatible with all standard UK water systems, including:

  • Gravity Fed
  • Pumped
  • Unvented High Pressure
  • Fully Modulated Combi-Boilers

It requires connections for hot water, cold water, and two outlets (e.g., shower head and bath filler, or two shower heads). Ensure your water pressure meets the minimum requirements specified in the product manual for optimal performance.

Care:

To maintain the valve's appearance and function:

  1. Regularly clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
  2. Periodically check for any signs of limescale build-up around the controls and clean gently if necessary.
  3. Refer to the manufacturer's guide for any specific internal component cleaning or servicing, particularly if water flow diminishes significantly over time.
