Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the minimum water pressure required for this shower?

The Bristan Craze Bar Mixer Shower requires a minimum dynamic pressure of 1.0 bar.

Can both the fixed head and handset be used at the same time?

No, the two outlets can only be run separately, not simultaneously.

How do I adjust the maximum temperature?

The safety stop is preset at 38°C but can be adjusted upwards to a maximum of 43°C. Refer to the installation manual for specific adjustment instructions.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Bristan Craze Bar Mixer Shower comes with a 5-year guarantee for peace of mind.

How do I clean the shower heads to prevent limescale?

The shower heads feature easy-clean, limescale-resistant nozzles. Gently rub the nozzles to remove any build-up. For tougher limescale, use a mild limescale remover and rinse thoroughly.

What materials is the shower made from?

The shower is constructed from durable materials including zinc alloy, stainless steel, and ABS.

Is this shower suitable for all types of plumbing systems?

It is designed for high-pressure systems. It is not suitable for low-pressure gravity-fed systems.

Troubleshooting

No water flow or very low flow

Check that the water supply is turned on and that the isolation valves are open. Ensure the system pressure meets the minimum requirement of 1.0 bar. Clean any blockages in the showerhead nozzles or the inlet filter.

Temperature is too hot or too cold

Verify that the thermostatic control is set correctly. If temperature fluctuates, ensure the hot and cold water supplies are balanced. Check if the safety stop (preset at 38°C) needs adjustment. Maximum controllable temperature is 43°C.

Diverter not switching between outlets

Ensure the diverter mechanism is not stiff. Clean any debris that might be obstructing its movement. If the issue persists, the diverter component may require inspection or replacement.

Leaking from the unit

Check all connections for tightness. Inspect seals and O-rings for wear or damage. If the leak originates from the unit body, contact customer support.
