Product Information

Full details

This shower kit is ideal for homeowners looking to upgrade their showering experience with a modern, versatile, and water-saving solution. Its key benefit lies in the three distinct spray modes and the innovative Navigo technology for easy control, offering a personalized shower. A potential caveat is the 8-litre-per-minute flow regulator, which, while water-saving, may affect water pressure for some users. The kit features a 125mm handspray, a 900mm rail, a 1.75m IdealFlex hose, and is finished in contemporary chrome.

FAQs

How do I switch between the different spray modes?

Rotate the outer ring of the 125mm handspray to cycle through the available spray modes: Rain, Drop Jet, and Massage.

What is the purpose of the 8 L/min flow regulator?

The flow regulator is designed to limit the water flow to 8 litres per minute, which helps conserve water and reduce energy costs associated with heating water, while still providing a satisfactory shower experience.

Can I remove the flow regulator if I want higher water pressure?

The flow regulator is a key component for water saving. While it may be possible to remove it depending on the installation, doing so will increase water consumption and may not be advisable for optimal system performance or environmental reasons. Consult the product manual or a professional installer.

How long is the manufacturer's guarantee?

The shower kit is backed by a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee, covering manufacturing defects.

Is the shower kit suitable for high-pressure systems?

Yes, the kit is designed to work with standard high-pressure systems. The flow regulator helps manage the flow rate even in high-pressure environments.

What does 'Cool Body' technology mean?

'Cool Body' technology means the outer surface of the handspray remains cooler to the touch during use, enhancing safety and preventing accidental burns.

Troubleshooting

Handspray has low water output.

Check for blockages in the rub-clean nozzles and clean them. Ensure the flow regulator is correctly installed and not obstructed. Verify that the shower valve is fully open and the filter in the valve is clear.

Water leaks from hose connections.

Ensure the hose is securely tightened at both the handspray and the shower valve outlet. Check that the rubber washers are present and correctly seated in the hose fittings.

Navigo technology is not responding correctly.

Confirm that your shower valve is compatible with Navigo technology. Ensure the handspray is properly connected to the hose and the hose to the valve. Refer to your shower valve's manual for specific Navigo operation.

Shower rail is loose.

Check and tighten the screws holding the rail brackets to the wall. Ensure the wall fixings are appropriate for your wall type and are securely installed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers three distinct and functional spray patterns for a customizable shower.
  • Easy to clean and maintain thanks to rub-clean nozzles and cool body design.
  • Water-saving features contribute to reduced consumption and cost.
  • Modern aesthetic with a chrome finish complements contemporary bathrooms.
  • Navigo technology provides a user-friendly and intuitive control system.

Cons

  • The included flow regulator might reduce water pressure for users accustomed to higher flow rates.
  • The 900mm rail, while substantial, may be longer than some prefer for smaller shower spaces.
  • Diamond shape of the handspray might not suit all aesthetic preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure your existing shower valve is compatible with a shower kit system.
  2. Mount the 900mm rail securely to the wall using the provided fixings, following the installation template if included.
  3. Attach the IdealFlex hose to both the handspray and the shower valve outlet.
  4. Connect the handspray to the other end of the hose.
  5. If water pressure is too high or for water-saving purposes, install the 8 L/min flow regulator as per the manufacturer's instructions (often within the hose connection to the valve or handspray).

Compatibility:

  • This kit is designed to work with most standard shower valves (bar mixer, electric, or digital showers) that have a standard hose outlet.
  • The Navigo technology requires a compatible shower valve that allows for flow and volume control via the push-and-turn mechanism.

Care:

  • Handspray & Hose: Regularly clean the rub-clean nozzles by gently rubbing them with a finger or soft cloth to remove limescale. Wipe the handspray and hose with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
  • Shower Rail: Clean the rail with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly.
  • Flow Regulator: Periodically check and clean the flow regulator to ensure it remains free of debris, which can affect water flow.
