Product Information

Full details

The Bristan Cobalt Shower Pack in Black is designed for individuals seeking a modern, stylish, and functional shower experience. Its key benefit is the dual functionality, offering both a drenching overhead shower and a versatile handset, controlled independently. A potential caveat is that the two outlets only run separately, not simultaneously. This high-quality shower pack features soft square handles, an integral two-outlet diverter, a 200mm slimline square fixed head with a shower arm, and an adjustable riser shower kit with a single-function handset. It is designed for easy installation in UK wall cavities and includes user-friendly features like a temperature stop button and rub-clean anti-limescale heads.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can both shower outlets be used at the same time?

No, the Bristan Cobalt Shower Pack is designed so that the two outlets (fixed head and handset) can only be used separately, not simultaneously.

What is the warranty period for this shower pack?

This product comes with a 5-year manufacturer's warranty from Bristan.

How do I clean the anti-limescale nozzles?

Simply rub your finger or a soft cloth over the rubber nozzles on both the fixed head and the handset to dislodge any limescale buildup.

What is the minimum wall cavity depth required for installation?

The shower valve has been designed to fit into a UK wall cavity with a minimum depth of 35mm.

Is this shower suitable for low water pressure systems?

While designed for optimal performance, the actual water flow and pressure will depend on your home's existing plumbing system. It is recommended to check your water pressure before installation.

How do I override the temperature stop button?

The temperature stop button is designed to prevent accidental scalding. To achieve a hotter temperature, you will need to press and hold the button while turning the temperature control further.

Where can I find replacement parts or servicing information?

For replacement parts or servicing, please refer to the Bristan website or contact their customer support. Filter servicing requires rear access to the valve.

Troubleshooting

Low water pressure from shower head

Check and clean the rub-clean anti-limescale nozzles on the shower head and handset. Ensure the filters within the valve are clear by accessing them from the rear.

Temperature fluctuates or is inconsistent

Verify that the dual controls (flow and temperature) are set correctly. Ensure there are no blockages in the system. If the issue persists, check the thermostatic cartridge.

Diverter not switching between outlets

Ensure the diverter is being fully engaged. If it feels stiff or is not functioning correctly, there may be an internal issue requiring professional inspection.

Shower valve is leaking

Check all connections for tightness. If the leak appears to be from the valve body itself, contact Bristan customer support or a qualified plumber, as internal seals may need replacing.

Difficulty adjusting temperature

Ensure the temperature control is not obstructed. The temperature stop button may be engaged; learn how to temporarily override it for hotter water if needed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers both a fixed overhead shower and a separate handset for versatile use.
  • Modern, square design complements contemporary bathrooms.
  • Safety feature prevents scalding with a temperature stop button.
  • Easy to clean with rub-clean anti-limescale nozzles.
  • Designed for shallow 35mm wall cavity installation, simplifying fitting.
  • Comes with a 5-year manufacturer's warranty for peace of mind.

Cons

  • The two shower outlets can only be used separately, not simultaneously.
  • Requires rear access to service filters, which might be a consideration for certain installations.
  • The diverter mechanism is integral to the valve, meaning the outlets cannot be used at the same time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This shower valve is designed to fit into a standard UK wall cavity with a minimum depth of 35mm, simplifying installation for plumbers. It features 15mm inlet connections.

Compatibility:

The shower pack is designed to work with standard UK plumbing systems. It requires rear access for servicing of filters. While the shower itself is designed for performance, its effectiveness can be influenced by your home's water pressure. It is also designed to coordinate with matching Bristan taps and showers for a unified bathroom aesthetic.

Care:

To maintain the appearance and performance of your shower pack:

  1. Cleaning the Heads: Periodically rub the nozzles on the fixed head and handset to dislodge any limescale.
  2. General Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down all surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
  3. Filter Servicing: Access to the filters for cleaning or replacement requires rear access to the valve, typically done during maintenance.
