FAQs

What is the minimum water pressure required for this shower valve?

The minimum water pressure required for optimal performance is 0.5 bar.

Is the brass construction suitable for hard water areas?

While brass is durable, regular cleaning as per the care instructions is recommended in hard water areas to prevent limescale buildup which can affect performance.

Does this shower valve come with shower heads or body jets?

This product is for the concealed shower valve body only. Shower heads, hoses, and other accessories are sold separately.

How do I clean the white finish without damaging it?

Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap solution. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What is covered by the 15-year warranty?

The 15-year warranty typically covers manufacturing defects and issues with the materials and workmanship of the valve body itself. Please refer to RAK Ceramics' specific warranty documentation for full details.

Can I install this myself if I have some DIY experience?

Due to the concealed nature of the installation, professional plumbing expertise is strongly recommended to ensure a watertight and correctly functioning system. Incorrect installation can lead to leaks and damage.

What are the dimensions of the visible control plate?

The product dimensions listed (70mm x 280mm x 136mm) refer to the main valve body. The dimensions of the visible control plate/trim are typically standard and designed to complement the valve, but specific trim dimensions should be confirmed with the product's technical drawings or packaging.

Troubleshooting

No water flow or reduced flow

Check that the water supply is turned on. Ensure the minimum water pressure requirement of 0.5 bar is met. Inspect the valve and connected pipes for any blockages or kinks.

Temperature fluctuations or inability to maintain temperature

Verify that the thermostatic control is functioning correctly. Ensure water pressure is stable. If the issue persists, the internal thermostatic element may require servicing or replacement by a qualified plumber.

Leaking from controls or valve body

Ensure all connections are secure. Check seals and O-rings for wear or damage. If the leak persists, contact a qualified plumber for repair or replacement of internal parts.

Difficulty turning handles

Check for any debris or limescale buildup around the handles or cartridges. Gently try to clean the moving parts. If stiffness remains, professional servicing may be required.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This valve requires concealed installation, meaning the main body of the valve is fitted within the wall cavity. Professional plumbing expertise is highly recommended for correct installation to ensure water tightness and proper functionality. Ensure the wall cavity is prepared according to the product's dimensional requirements (70mm x 280mm x 136mm) and that appropriate water supply connections are accessible.

Compatibility:

The RAK Ceramics Feeling Shower Valve is compatible with water systems operating within a pressure range of 0.5 bar to 5 bar. This range covers most standard UK and European domestic water pressure systems. It is designed for use with standard UK plumbing configurations.

Care:

To maintain the pristine white finish, clean the valve regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemical solvents, as these can damage the finish. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly with clean water, then dry with a soft cloth.
