FAQs

What type of water systems is the Aqualisa Midas 220 compatible with?

This shower is compatible with high-pressure water systems and combination boiler systems.

How do I clean the showerheads?

Gently rub the easy-clean nozzles. For tougher limescale, use a soft cloth with a mild detergent or a 50/50 white vinegar and water solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What is the benefit of the Safe Touch control?

The Safe Touch feature ensures the exterior of the shower valve remains cool during use, reducing the risk of accidental burns, making it safer for all users, especially children.

Can I use the Eco setting on the handset indefinitely?

Yes, the Eco setting is designed for sustained use to help conserve water and energy. You can switch to other patterns as needed.

How is the height of the personal shower handset adjusted?

The height and angle of the handset are easily adjusted using the pinch grip slider located on the vertical rail.

What is the warranty period for this shower?

The Aqualisa Midas 220 Exposed Mixer Shower comes with a 5-year guarantee when registered with Aqualisa.

Does this shower require a minimum water pressure?

Yes, it is designed for high-pressure systems, which inherently have sufficient water pressure. Performance will depend on the actual system pressure.

Troubleshooting

No water or low water flow

Check that the main water supply is on. Ensure the inlet filters are not clogged. Verify that the system pressure meets the minimum requirement for this shower.

Temperature is too hot or too cold

Adjust the temperature control knob carefully. Ensure the hot and cold water supplies are correctly connected. Check for any blockages in the valve or showerheads.

Diverter not switching between showerheads

Ensure the diverter control is fully engaged. If problems persist, there might be an internal valve issue requiring professional inspection.

Showerhead nozzles blocked

Gently rub the rubber nozzles to release limescale. For stubborn deposits, soak the showerhead in a vinegar solution as per the care instructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a luxurious rainfall shower experience.
  • Offers multiple spray options with the personal handset.
  • Enhanced safety features for family use.
  • Durable construction with a brass valve.
  • Easy maintenance due to anti-limescale nozzles.
  • Compatible with high-pressure and combination boiler systems.

Cons

  • Exposed valve design may not suit all bathroom aesthetics or space constraints.
  • Requires a minimum system pressure for optimal performance.
  • Installation may require professional expertise.
  • Temperature override requires conscious user interaction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This shower is designed for high-pressure and combination boiler water systems. It is not suitable for low-pressure or gravity-fed systems.

Setup: Installation involves connecting the inlet pipes to the hot and cold water supplies and securely mounting the valve to the wall. The exposed nature of the valve means the pipework is visible, so neat installation is recommended. Follow the manufacturer's detailed installation guide for correct plumbing and fixing.

Care: To maintain the shower's appearance and performance:

  1. Cleaning the Showerheads: Gently rub the easy-clean nozzles to dislodge any limescale. For tougher buildup, use a soft cloth dampened with water and mild detergent, or a 50/50 solution of white vinegar and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  2. Valve Maintenance: Wipe the exposed valve body and controls with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive pads or harsh chemicals.
  3. Hose and Handset: Periodically check the shower hose for any damage and ensure the anti-twist connector is functioning correctly.
