FAQs

What is the benefit of a thermostatic shower valve?

A thermostatic shower valve maintains a set water temperature, automatically adjusting for fluctuations in hot and cold water supply, and includes anti-scald technology to prevent sudden temperature spikes, ensuring a safer and more comfortable shower.

Can I use the overhead and hand shower at the same time?

Yes, this shower system is designed to allow both the 400mm square shower head and the hand shower to be used simultaneously or individually, providing flexible control over your showering experience.

How do I clean the large 400mm shower head?

The shower head features easy-clean silicone nozzles. Simply rub the nozzles firmly with your finger or a soft cloth to dislodge any mineral deposits. For tougher buildup, a mild solution of white vinegar can be used, followed by a thorough rinse.

What materials is the shower system made from?

The shower system is constructed from premium materials including anti-corrosive stainless steel for the shower head, solid brass for the valve components, and ABS for other parts, all finished in chrome.

Is this shower suitable for all plumbing systems?

Yes, the Milano Arvo thermostatic shower is compatible with all standard UK plumbing systems, including conventional, combi-boiler, and pumped systems.

Does the shower head require a high water pressure to function well?

While optimal performance is generally achieved with adequate water pressure, the system is designed for broad compatibility. For best results, consult with a professional installer regarding your home's water pressure and system compatibility.

What is the warranty period for this shower?

Specific warranty details should be confirmed with the retailer at the time of purchase, but Milano typically offers a comprehensive warranty on their bathroom fixtures. Please refer to your product documentation or the retailer for exact terms.

Troubleshooting

No water flow or low pressure

Check that the water supply is turned on. Ensure there are no blockages in the shower head nozzles or the main water lines. Verify that the diverter is correctly positioned to direct water to the desired shower head.

Water temperature is not consistent

Ensure the thermostatic valve is functioning correctly. Check for any blockages in the hot or cold water inlets to the valve. If the issue persists, professional servicing of the valve may be required.

Shower drips when turned off

The ceramic disc technology should prevent drips. If dripping occurs, it may indicate worn seals within the valve or controls. Contact customer support or a qualified plumber for inspection and potential repair.

Anti-scald feature is not working

Verify that the thermostatic valve was installed correctly and that the temperature limit is set appropriately. Ensure the hot water supply is adequate. If the safety feature is not engaging, seek professional assistance immediately.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a luxurious and expansive showering experience with the large overhead shower.
  • Enhanced safety due to the anti-scald technology and precise thermostatic control.
  • Durable construction with premium materials like solid brass and stainless steel.
  • Versatile use with both an overhead and a hand shower.

Cons

  • Requires professional installation for the concealed valve.

  • Chrome finish requires regular cleaning to maintain its shine and prevent water spots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Milano Arvo thermostatic shower features a concealed valve, meaning it is designed for in-wall installation. Professional plumbing expertise is recommended for a safe and correct setup to ensure all connections are secure and the valve is properly integrated into the wall. The shower head and arm, along with the hand shower and controls, are then mounted to the wall.

Compatibility: This shower system is compatible with all standard UK plumbing systems, including conventional, gravity-fed, combi-boiler, and pumped systems. No specific pressure requirements are listed, but optimal performance is typically achieved with adequate water pressure.

Care: To maintain the shower's chrome finish and ensure longevity:

  1. Daily Cleaning: Wipe down the shower head and valve with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove water droplets and prevent limescale buildup.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Use a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner specifically designed for chrome fixtures. Apply the cleaner to a soft cloth, not directly to the surfaces, and wipe gently.
  3. Nozzle Maintenance: Periodically rub the silicone nozzles firmly to dislodge any mineral deposits. If stubborn buildup occurs, a solution of diluted white vinegar can be used; soak a cloth in the solution and gently wipe the nozzles, then rinse thoroughly.
  4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive pads, scouring powders, or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the chrome plating and underlying materials.
