FAQs

What is the guarantee period for this shower valve?

The RAK Ceramics Concealed Shower Valve comes with a 15-year manufacturer guarantee. Serviceable parts within the valve have a 2-year guarantee.

Does this shower valve include a shower head and hose?

No, the shower kit and shower head are sold separately. You will need to purchase these items in addition to the valve.

What is the minimum water pressure required?

The minimum recommended water pressure for this valve to operate effectively is 0.5 Bar.

Can this valve be installed vertically or horizontally?

The product description specifies a vertical orientation for installation. It is designed to be mounted upright within the wall.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

To clean the chrome finish, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the surface.

What material is the shower valve made from?

The shower valve is manufactured from high-quality brass.

How many outlets does this valve support?

This is a single outlet valve, meaning it is designed to supply water to one shower fixture.

Troubleshooting

No water or low flow from the shower.

Check that the water supply is turned on and that the minimum pressure of 0.5 Bar is met. Ensure no blockages exist in the connected shower head or pipework. Verify that the valve controls are fully open.

Water temperature is not consistent or fluctuating.

Confirm that the thermostatic controls are functioning correctly. Check if the hot and cold water supplies are balanced. Ensure the maximum pressure of 1.0 Bar is not exceeded, and that the valve is not faulty. Contact a professional if issues persist.

Leaking from the valve or connections.

Ensure all connections are securely tightened. If the leak is from the valve itself, it may require servicing or replacement of internal parts. Consult the 15-year guarantee for potential support.

Difficulty operating the handles.

Check for any debris or limescale buildup around the handles or valve mechanism. If the handles are stiff, they may require lubrication or servicing. Ensure the valve is correctly installed.
