FAQs

What type of water systems is this shower valve compatible with?

This valve is compatible with all water systems, including gravity fed, pumped, unvented, high pressure, and fully modulated combi-boilers.

How does the thermostatic control work?

The thermostatic control accurately maintains the water temperature to within +/- 2 to 3 °C, adjusting automatically if water pressure fluctuates.

What happens if there's a sudden failure in hot or cold water supply?

In the event of a hot or cold water failure, the valve is designed to shut down the water supply immediately, providing full thermal protection to prevent scalding.

Is this shower valve suitable for hard water areas?

Yes, the patented cartridge is highly resistant to calcium build-up, making it suitable for hard water areas.

Can I install this shower valve myself?

While possible, this is a concealed valve that requires installation within the wall. Professional installation is generally recommended to ensure correct waterproofing and plumbing connections.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The shower valve comes with a 5-year guarantee against faulty workmanship or materials, provided it is installed, cared for, and used in accordance with instructions.

How do I clean and maintain the shower valve?

Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For hard water areas, gentle descaling may be needed periodically, though the cartridge is resistant.

What are the dimensions of the shower valve?

The dimensions are approximately 120mm in width, 210mm in height, and 135mm in depth (protrusion from wall).

Troubleshooting

Water temperature is not consistent.

Ensure the thermostatic cartridge is functioning correctly. Check for any obstructions or limescale buildup within the cartridge, especially if you have hard water. Ensure water supplies are balanced and not fluctuating significantly.

Water flow is weak.

Check the shower head and any connected hoses for blockages or limescale. Ensure the water system pressures are within the expected range for your home. If using a combi-boiler, ensure it is functioning correctly.

Valve is dripping or leaking.

This usually indicates a problem with the cartridge or internal seals. It may require servicing or replacement of the cartridge. Ensure the valve was installed correctly and all connections are secure.

Hot and cold water are reversed.

The cartridge is fully reversible. Carefully remove the cartridge, rotate it 180 degrees, and reinsert it to correct the hot and cold supply orientation.

Safety shut-off is not engaging during a pressure drop.

Ensure the thermostatic mechanism is not obstructed and is functioning as intended. If the issue persists, the thermostatic cartridge may need replacement or servicing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Guarantee: The product comes with a 5-year guarantee against faulty workmanship or materials when installed, cared for, and used according to instructions.
