FAQs
What type of water supply is required?
The Rada Slimline Shower Panel requires a pre-blended hot and cold water supply connected via a single pipe entry.
Does this unit require mains electricity?
No, it operates on a Hybrid Energy System that eliminates the need for mains power or frequent battery replacement, offering up to 10 years of life.
How is the shower time controlled?
The shower time is electronically controlled and programmable. Users can set specific durations after which the water automatically shuts off.
What is the purpose of the duty flush?
The automatic duty flush is designed to periodically run water through the system to prevent stagnation, which helps in complying with Legionella control regulations.
Is this panel suitable for domestic bathrooms?
While effective for water saving, this panel is primarily designed for commercial or public facilities due to its automated features and requirement for a pre-blended supply. It may not offer the manual control typically desired in a domestic setting.
What maintenance is typically required?
The unit is designed for low maintenance. Regular cleaning of the surface with a soft cloth is recommended. Internal components are managed by the Hybrid Energy System and electronic controls.
How long does the Hybrid Energy System last?
The Hybrid Energy System is designed to last up to 10 years, significantly reducing the need for maintenance or replacement parts related to power.
Troubleshooting
Shower does not activate
Verify the pre-blended water supply is connected and active. Check if the programming has accidentally set zero run time. Ensure the Hybrid Energy System has sufficient power (though typically maintenance-free).
Water flow is too low or too high
Adjust the programmed run time via the electronic controls. If flow rate is consistently incorrect, check the water pressure and the pre-blended supply.
Duty flush not activating
Confirm that the duty flush feature is enabled and programmed correctly in the settings. Ensure there are no blockages in the associated pipework.
Panel surface appears stained
Use a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that can degrade the protective coating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This panel requires installation by a qualified professional. It connects via a single pipe entry to a pre-blended hot and cold water supply. Programming of shower run times, duty flush intervals, and duty flush run times is performed via the unit's electronic controls.
Compatibility: Designed to connect to a pre-blended water supply. Ensure your water system can provide a consistent and appropriately blended temperature before installation.
Care: Clean the surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the stain-resistant finish. For internal components and programming, refer to the manufacturer's detailed technical manual.
