Product Information
Full details
The Zanda Single Outlet Shower Valve is an ideal choice for homeowners and interior designers seeking a minimalist, modern aesthetic for their bathroom renovations. Its primary benefit is the combination of precise manual temperature control and a highly durable PVD silver finish that resists wear and tarnishing over time. While it offers a sleek, concealed design, users should note that it requires a specific operating pressure range of 1.0 to 3.0 bar, making it unsuitable for low-pressure gravity-fed plumbing systems without a booster pump.

FAQs
Can this valve be used with a separate handheld shower?
No, this is a single outlet valve, meaning it is designed to control only one shower accessory at a time.
Is the PVD finish prone to fingerprints?
The knurled texture helps reduce the visibility of fingerprints, and the PVD finish itself is designed to be very easy to wipe clean.
Does it come with a warranty?
Yes, the Zanda valve includes a 5-year warranty against manufacturing defects.
What is the minimum pressure required?
The valve requires a minimum of 1.0 bar to function correctly.
Can I use harsh chemical cleaners on the valve?
No, you should avoid abrasive cleaners and bleach to prevent damaging the PVD coating.
Does this valve mix hot and cold water?
Yes, it is a single-lever mixer valve that blends hot and cold water to your desired temperature.
Troubleshooting
Water flow is weak or insufficient
Verify your plumbing system provides at least 1.0 bar of pressure; install a booster pump if necessary.
Handle feels loose or rotates excessively
Check the internal grub screw on the handle and tighten if necessary; ensure the ceramic disc cartridge is seated correctly.
Dripping from the shower head
Inspect the ceramic disc cartridge for mineral buildup or wear and replace the cartridge if it fails to seal properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation: This unit is a concealed valve, meaning it must be installed behind a finished wall surface. Ensure your wall depth can accommodate the 108.3 mm depth requirement.
Compatibility: The valve operates strictly within a pressure range of 1.0 bar (minimum) to 3.0 bar (maximum). If your home has a traditional gravity-fed boiler system, you will likely need an inline pump to meet these pressure requirements.
Care Instructions: The PVD coating is designed for longevity, but should still be maintained correctly. Clean the valve using only a soft cloth and warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive sponges, scourers, or acidic cleaning agents (like descalers or bleach), as these can compromise the protective PVD layer over time.
