Product Information

Full details

It delivers a superior showering experience through its thermostatic temperature control and high flow rate, though users should note that as a single-outlet system, it lacks the versatility of a secondary handheld attachment.

FAQs

What is the minimum pressure required for this shower?

The shower requires a minimum operating pressure of 0.2 bar.

Can I use this shower with a combi-boiler?

Yes, it is suitable for use with most combi-boiler systems within the specified pressure range.

How do I remove limescale from the shower head?

The shower head features rub-clean nozzles. Simply rub your finger or a cloth across the nozzles to dislodge any scale.

What is the depth of the valve behind the wall?

The valve is designed to fit into a wall cavity with a minimum depth of 35mm.

Is the temperature factory set?

Yes, the thermostatic cartridge is pre-set to 42°C for safety.

Does this pack include a handheld shower kit?

No, this is a single-outlet system providing water only to the fixed overhead shower.

Troubleshooting

Water temperature fluctuates during use

Check if the inlet filters are blocked by debris or ensure the hot and cold supplies are at stable pressures.

Low water flow from the shower head

Check the rub-clean nozzles for limescale buildup and ensure the isolating valves are fully open.

Shower head dripping after being turned off

The flow control cartridge may need cleaning or replacing if debris has prevented a proper seal.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable luminance chrome finish resistant to wear
  • Easy-clean nozzles prevent mineral buildup
  • Compact valve design suitable for shallow wall cavities
  • Precise thermostatic safety temperature control
  • Suitable for low and high-pressure plumbing systems

Cons

  • Single-outlet design restricts options to a fixed head only
  • Requires in-wall installation which may necessitate professional plumbing help
  • No integrated diverter for handheld shower accessories

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup and Installation: The unit requires a wall cavity depth of at least 35mm. It connects via standard 15mm compression inlets. Always ensure the system is flushed thoroughly before final connection to prevent debris from damaging the thermostatic cartridge.

Compatibility: This unit is suitable for most UK plumbing systems including gravity-fed, pumped, and unvented mains pressure systems within the 0.2 to 5.0 bar range.

Care Instructions: To maintain the luminance chrome finish, clean only with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive scouring pads or acidic cleaning agents, as these will damage the chrome plating. Regularly wipe the nozzles on the fixed head to ensure even water distribution.
