FAQs

What type of shower system is this valve suitable for?

This valve is designed for concealed installation and controls a single shower outlet. It's ideal for standard shower setups where you need to control flow to one fixture, like a fixed shower head or a handheld shower.

Does this valve include the shower head or other accessories?

No, this product is the concealed diverter valve body and its trim. You will need to purchase compatible shower heads, hoses, and any other desired accessories separately.

What is the minimum water pressure required for this valve?

The RAK Ceramics Petit Round Concealed Diverter Valve requires a minimum water pressure of 1.0 Bar for optimal performance.

How do I clean and maintain the brushed gold finish?

Clean using a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive pads to preserve the finish. Always dry the surface after cleaning.

What is the guarantee period for this product?

The valve comes with a 15-year manufacturer's guarantee. Serviceable parts have a 2-year guarantee.

Can this valve be used with a bath spout?

While primarily designed for showers, it can control water to a single outlet. If your bath filler is a single outlet system, it might be adaptable, but it's best suited for shower applications.

Is this a thermostatic mixing valve?

Yes, it is a thermostatic shower valve, meaning it helps maintain a consistent water temperature during your shower for safety and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Low water flow or temperature inconsistency.

Ensure the system meets the minimum 1.0 Bar pressure requirement. Check for any blockages in the shower head or internal components. Verify that the valve is fully open and correctly installed.

Difficulty operating the control handle.

Check for any obstructions around the handle. If the issue persists, it may indicate an internal valve problem, and professional inspection or replacement of the control cartridge might be necessary.

Visible corrosion or damage to the finish.

Cease using abrasive cleaning products. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. If damage is significant, contact the manufacturer for advice on repair or replacement parts under warranty.

  4. Dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
