Its key benefit is offering dual-outlet control with a space-saving recessed design. A caveat is the requirement for rear access for servicing filters.

The valve requires a minimum cavity depth of 35mm. With plasterboard and tiles, the total fitting depth should be between 60mm and 75mm.
The valve features an integral two-outlet diverter. Operate the diverter control on the valve to switch between the connected outlets.
Yes, the filters require rear access to the valve for servicing. Ensure you have adequate space behind the valve before installation if frequent filter maintenance is anticipated.
The valve is designed to work with standard UK water pressures. Ensure your system's hot and cold water supply temperatures are within the specified ranges (min 4°c cold, max 80°c hot).
Gently wipe the Luminance Chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using any abrasive cleaning agents or scouring pads, as these can scratch or damage the surface.
Yes, the cartridge is designed to be accessed from the front of the valve, simplifying replacement or maintenance procedures.
The valve is constructed from brass with a Luminance Chrome finish.
Check that both hot and cold water supplies are turned on. Ensure filters are clean and not blocked (requires rear access). Verify water pressure meets minimum requirements.
The integral diverter may be stiff. Ensure the valve is correctly installed and try operating the diverter lever firmly. If the problem persists, cartridge access from the front may allow for inspection or cleaning.
Check the temperature of your incoming hot and cold water supplies. Ensure the maximum hot water temperature does not exceed 80°c and the minimum cold water is above 4°c. Adjustments may be needed at the water heater or supply.
Ensure all connections are secure. If the leak appears to be from the cartridge area, it may require front access for inspection or replacement.
