No, the RAK Ceramics Resort Exposed Thermostatic Shower Valve is supplied without a shower kit. The shower head, hose, and any associated fittings need to be purchased separately.
The minimum operating pressure required for this shower valve is 0.5 Bar.
Clean the chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth to maintain shine.
The RAK Ceramics Resort Exposed Thermostatic Shower Valve comes with a 15-year manufacturer's guarantee.
While it is designed for wall-mounted exposed installation, professional installation by a qualified plumber is highly recommended to ensure correct setup, water safety, and compliance.
Cool touch technology means that the external surface of the valve remains cool during operation, significantly reducing the risk of accidental burns. This is achieved through an internal design that separates the hot water channel from the outer casing.
The dimensions are approximately 29cm (width) x 7cm (height) x 5cm (depth).
Ensure the hot and cold water supplies are correctly connected to the respective inlets. Check that the water pressure meets the minimum requirement of 0.5 Bar. Verify that the thermostatic control is set correctly and has not been accidentally turned to full cold.
Check that all connections are securely tightened. Inspect existing seals and washers for wear and tear; replace if necessary. Ensure pipework is properly aligned and not stressed. If the leak persists, contact a professional plumber.
Verify that the water pressure is sufficient. Check for any blockages in the shower head or hose (if attached). Ensure the main water valves to the shower are fully open. Clean any filters within the valve if accessible and recommended by the manufacturer.
Mineral deposits can sometimes cause stiffness. Try cleaning the handle mechanism with a mild descaling solution. If the problem persists, internal components may require servicing or replacement.
Setup:
This is a wall-mounted exposed shower valve. Ensure that the necessary hot and cold water supply pipes are correctly positioned on the wall, with the connection centres at 150mm. The inlet connections are 3/4 BSP, and the outlet is 1/2 BSP. Professional installation by a qualified plumber is recommended to ensure correct water flow and safety compliance.
Compatibility:
*Note: This product requires a separate shower kit (hose, shower head, and riser rail).
Care:
To maintain the sleek chrome finish, clean the valve regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing and drying with a clean cloth. Periodically check connections for any signs of leaks.
