Do I need special tools to install this shower?

Troubleshooting

No water flow or low pressure

Check that the water supply is turned on. Ensure there are no kinks in the hose. Clean the handset nozzles and check if the filters within the valve require cleaning (requires rear access).

Water temperature is too hot or too cold

Verify that the dual controls are set correctly. The thermostatic valve is factory set to a maximum hot water temperature of 42°C. If issues persist, the valve may require servicing.

Leaking from the valve or connections

Ensure all connections are securely tightened. Check seals and washers. If the leak persists from the valve body, servicing may be required.

Handset not switching between functions

Gently rub the rubber nozzles to clear any debris or limescale. Ensure the handset is correctly connected to the hose.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Ensure the wall cavity depth is at least 35mm. The valve requires standard 15mm inlet and 1/2" outlet connections. Follow the included installation manual carefully, paying attention to the Wall Mount Technology for a secure fit.

Compatibility: This shower pack is suitable for all plumbing systems, with an ideal working pressure range of 0.2 to 5 bar (maximum 10 bar). It is WRAS and CE approved.
